All this was ongoing in 1930s Germany as it is today. No one in Germany considered it a threat. This deja vue attitude of murder in VA, contempt for the American soldier justified by nationalism, a righteous demand that Peter Jennings wear an American flag on his jacket and obtain American citizenship, and acceptance attitude towards torture; these were the same early 1930s attitudes in Germany by a people who also considered themselves so moral and good. By a people who did not even question when their leader "Pearl Harbored" other sovereign nations - even praised him for doing so. What is the largest immigrant composition of America? Germans. And yet somehow Nazism cannot happen in America. "Where are your papers?" Same law to be imposed on all Americans complete with a required redesign of state driver's licenses so that everyone will have and must carry "papers". Parallels do exist between today's extremist Republicans and early 1930s Nazis. Complete with both people insisting they are the righteous and superior ones. |

What do you expect an individual to do in reaction to this shooting? What are you doing besides accusing everyone else of doing nothing?

Offering solutions is rather useless here considering the many who assume if everyone had a gun, then crime would disappear – in direct contradiction to fact and history. Considering the many who assume the most violent western nation is not at all violent. Kill off kids in school, do some silly mourning ritual, deny a problem exists, and then do nothing. What is the count? Same four act play repeated 44 times now in America? A situation worthy of ridicule because the problem starts with denial. Denial of reality. Denial that bereavement is only an act. Identifying a solution is far from relevant since and apparently xoxoxoBruce feels schoolyard massacres are situation normal (also called SNAFU). |

Bruce - take a pill. You have posted ten times consecutively - most posts containing nothing useful. Your are also posting only to argue; providing no new information; providing no new perspective.
Britain had no problem eliminating school yard massacres quickly by (step one) acknowledging the problem, and then (step two) solving the problem. Try limiting your post to one reality at a time. Britian had no problem. Explain why that reality is not so. Only children restort to profanity. Your profane accusations are typical of adult children and are not relevant in a logical reply. Please tell us how the British did not do step one - then did not do step two. Somehow you completely ignored that most relevant point. Do you only want to argue. Do you advocate more schoolyard massacres? Or did you run out of coffee? |
