The Dems need a break in the news cycle after the Mueller hearing and Trumps ‘racist’ remarks towards Elija Cummings and everyone looking at what a craphole Baltimore is under him. Queue a news distraction in 3, 2, 1....

One report I read said the festival is a gun-free zone/festival. Just another example of how gun-free zones are the most unsafe spaces in the country. Sad.
Funny but I could walk outside my building in downtown SLC and see the same garbage in Baltimore but I don't see Trump blaming Chris Stewart or Rob Bishop or whoever the hell congress person represents SLC... oh yeah, there's 3 of them.Quote:

Due to the trend of SLC electing liberal mayors, and with the recent batch of liberal candidates chomping at the bit for the job, gun control and mass shootings are around corner. Just as DH mentions, one of the first symptoms is manifesting itself in the garbage that he can see outside his SLC apartment.Quote:

Good analysis, to bad your thoughts can’t be written in crayon. Riddle me why Salina Utah doesn’t have a homeless problem yet The greater Salt Lake area does?Quote:

This guy walked into a mall and killed 20 people for nothing and their response is “Gun Control”. We’re being shot at! We don't want gun control, we want a gun to shoot back!
Evil doesn’t live in a vacuum; it doesn’t care about your gun laws.
This psycho drove hours to another city just so he could slaughter people while wearing hearing protection.
He was more worried about protecting his hearing than he was the lives he was about to take.
This is pure evil we are dealing with here and you want us to face this type of evil with GUN CONTROL LAWS, that’s ridiculous!
Stop blaming the gun!
America has ALWAYS had guns and we haven't had these problems.
The problem is we’ve raised a generation of kids who are entitled, who lack personal accountability, and believe their feelings are the only things that matter.
When they explode and kill a bunch of people, instead of demonstrating what personal accountability looks like by blaming the person, we blame the gun as if the gun drove to El Paso and did the shooting on its own.
Keep America Tactical

I'll be honest, I haven't read one single article about the incidents in Texas and Ohio.
Why should I? Are the articles -- any article -- going to be objective and portray the facts without trying to sway the reader's opinion with ludicrous statistics and biased data? How many times has the finger of blame been pointed at Trump and the NRA? I'm sick of reading about these incidents from the perspective of a liberally biased media.
So I choose not to....:fitz:

From the LA Times. I thought for sure they'd lay all blame on guns and/or Donald Trump.

If we could somehow convince the media to not splash these stories all over the world, then it might cut down the incidence rate of mass shootings. But good luck with that -- a mass shooting is such low hanging fruit for the media that there's no way they can resist.
for the un believers....
In my own native state of Massachusetts, the battle for American freedom was begun by the thousands of farmers and tradesmen who made up the Minute Men -- citizens who were ready to defend their liberty at a moment's notice. Today we need a nation of minute men; citizens who are not only prepared to take up arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as a basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom. The cause of liberty, the cause of America, cannot succeed with any lesser effort.

A bit off topic. In my quest to be prepared I am taking a Stop the Bleed training class tonight. I'm already first aid and CPR certified because of the volunteer work I do with the Forest Service but, I'm always looking for more training and this course deals more with penetrating bleeds during mass casualty events.
Course description: "Uncontrolled bleeding is the number one cause of death after a mass shooting and similar mass casualty events. Severe bleeding can cause shock or death within five or 10 minutes — before medical help arrives. That’s why the Utah Valley Hospital is hosting a “Stop the Bleed” class to teach members of the public how to stop bleeding in cases of mass injuries.Stop the Bleed is a national injury prevention initiative aimed at teaching members of the public how to control a major hemorrhage before EMS crews arrive — because no matter how quickly emergency responders arrive, bystanders will always be first on the scene."

Is that still the case or has some breakthrough technique been recently adopted?

FBI Insider: El Paso Shooter Told Officials It was the Democrat Debate on Free Healthcare to Illegals — Not Trump! — That Triggered His Mass Shooting
Steve Hooper is a 30 year veteran of the FBI. Hooper said the El Paso shooter, during interviews, says he was triggered after watching the DNC debate where all the candidates raised their hands to provide “health insurance” to illegal immigrants.
It was the insanity at the Democrat Presidential debates that triggered the shooter, not Trump’s language.
Well I certainly hope you're nearby when I get bit by a shark, errr...hit by an asteroid, uh...a casualty in a mass shooting.Quote:

If you can give a basic rundown of anything particularly interesting from this class...do tell.

Luckily, officers were already on the scene when the shooting started. They are firing back SECONDS after it starts. Imagine if the cops were 10 minutes away.

If the easy access to guns has no effect on mass shootings, what do you guys think makes the US so prone to these when compared to the rest of the 1st world?
I think the points brought out in the aforementioned article does a pretty good job at outlining some of the major contributing factors:Quote:
