More mayhem from the Madlands

[Anonymous]

I was thinking to myself, Bricktop must have a lot to say about this.

I just couldn't resist another opportunity to highlight the insanity of American's addiction to lethal weapons.



I watch in amazement as their some of their media, politicians, gun nuts and whackjobs desperately try to argue against a tsunami of evidence that more guns make them safer.



It matters not to these frightened and paranoid morons that their children are slaughtered in schools as a result of their inability to accept that the ready access to firearms in their broken nation is the major cause of incidents such as these.



Any suggestion that the same people who justify their children being shot down as a better option than having no guns are "the leaders of the free world" is as risible as it is terrifying.



19 CHILDREN. In their school. And still they deny that guns are the problem.



What a despicable nation.



At least some Canadians get it...

I don't even have words for what happened in Texas and Buffalo, New York.

[Bricktop]

And to add to the derangement of this nation of fools, the Governor of Texas, the State where this profanation occurred, has recently been cajoling his constituents to buy MORE guns.



Why?



To beat California as the State with the most guns in private hands.



This nation would rather see its kids slaughtered than to admit it has a real problem with firearms. Protecting themselves from having their Rolex stolen is far more important than safeguarding innocent lives.



What a shithole.

Killed by a lunatic with an AR 15.



What a wonderful country the USA is.

The US should learn to make quality Scotch, and not firearms. Good day Bricktop.

Wouldnt have happened if those kids were armed.

I don't know about that Seoul.

There are many lessons the US should learn. But history tells us it would be easier to teach a mountain to fly than to convince Americans that guns are not essential to a wealthy and advanced society.

This morning (Thurs), a highly armed gunman was spotted in the area of several schools in TORONTO .. Lock downs were immediate



He was shot dead by 2 officers while approaching an elementary school and indicated he was not going to stop or give up arms



According to police, multiple residents called 9-1-1 shortly before 1 p.m. with reports that a man in his late teens or early 20s was in the area with a rifle.

The American disease is infectious.



However, we should be clear that insanity, slaughter of innocents and mass murder are not confined to America.



The issue is that America makes it so much easier by adhering to a religion of gun worship and violence. In that context, Canada and America are not comparable.



America can and should do more to reign in gun violence, but its claim of "the right to bear arms" based on a document hundreds of years old is vacuous and indicative of a nation that cannot apply reason and logic to its own failings and flaws.



And this is the same nation we rely on to make good judgment about foreign relations, military action, weapons distribution and nuclear armament.



Nations such as Australia and Canada, who with the United States and others claim the moral high ground in dealing with nations that tyrannise, imprison and slaughter their own people, such as North Korea and China, should NOT remain silent over America's propensity to butcher its own people, particularly children.



The carnage lies squarely at the feet of its rulers and politicians...a fact some of their own politicians concur with.



How many more innocent shoppers, students, concert goers and office workers need to die before these dimwitted cretins wake up and do their job.

In 2020, there were 8,344 victims of violent crimes involving guns in Canada. That's a lot.

Obama has screwed up priorities.

Here was a sample of the reactions to Obama's tweet.



"'It sucks those kids died, but remember George Floyd? He's who I'm still thinking about.' — Barack Obama," Babylon Bee CEO Seth Dillon mocked.

"Children, shmildren. Sure those kids died but let's honor Floyd, a BLM icon. You are my president forever and I'm Canadian. Your ability to say nothing in such an articulate manner is inspiring. Thank you," professor Gad Saad mocked.

"What? I will be the first to say that it is hard to find the words for the pain we are all feeling over this shooting. But this is the time to support and lift up these families. This tweet was a flashback to your presidency, further division. Stop already. This is not the time," Nikki Haley condemned.

"Let's stand George Floyd on the dead bodies of slaughtered children. This is one of the worst tweets in history," commentator Jason Whitlock slammed.

"What in God's name is wrong with you," conservative commentator Matt Walsh questioned.

"The massacre that happened yesterday does not favor my narrative so much, so let's skip over the parents' grief and remind everyone of a misfortune that does favor my narrative to create more hate, after two weekends of mass murders. Good thinking," journalist Emmanuel Rincón observed.

"While I sympathize with the tragedy of George Floyd, it is inappropriate to use the tragedy of the murder of 18 innocent children in the same breath," another person said.

"Please don't bring George Floyd onto the conversation today. It's apples and pears. Let's just mourn these poor, poor children and teacher. Leave mentioning George for another time. Thought you'd have more tact @BarackObama," another person said.

In 2020, there were 8,344 victims of violent crimes involving guns in Canada. That's a lot.

If you examine the table on this site, a few things stand out. First and foremost, America's rate of gun deaths is substantially higher than any other advanced western nation.



https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/gun-deaths-by-country">//https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/gun-deaths-by-country



Secondly, Australia with its very tight and restrictive gun controls is one of the lowest.



Canada with less controls than Australia is in between. Finland, a small and relatively placid nation in Europe has the highest rate of gun related deaths in Europe...then we look at its rate of gun ownership.



"It may seem strange that a sparsely populated country so often seen as a refuge of tranquility and peacefulness should feature so highly in international gun-ownership comparisons. With almost 1.6 million registered guns shared between 5.4 million people, one in every eight Finns is a legal firearm owner - the highest rate in the EU."

It is difficult to argue against the rationale that the more guns circulate in a country, the more people are killed by them...unless, of course, you are an American. Then you can argue the converse by simply claiming "the Constitution says I have a right to bear arms so it MUST be responsible to do so".



It is a degree of collective stupidity that we in other nations cannot continue to ignore. American hypocrisy undermines our efforts to admonish other nations for the treatment of their people and attempts to persuade them to treat them more humanely.



We cannot decry China for its treatment of the Uyghurs when they simply turn around and rightly claim that their children are not being slaughtered in THEIR schools.
