    You’re losing it race

    Maybe take the religion OUT of schools then? Or only Christianity prevents mass shootings?

    Any loser creep can go to a public school. Private schools usually do some vetting.

    No shit shootings are way more likely at public schools. Next you’re going to tell me there’s more violent crime in big crowded cities than small gated communities?
    Huh? Hondo was just saying poor neighborhoods are awesome. Best people live there. No?

    So what you’re saying is rich people who have a sense of right and wrong send their kids to religious schools were those kids don’t mass murder their classmates? Crazy theory, but you might be onto something.
    Rich people have less need to commit crimes. Because they have, you know, money.
    Because they, you know, WORK!
    um.. wage stagnation? Cost of living going up while wages remain?

    If poverty caused crime to increase how do you explain that crime during the Great Depression dropped? And how do you explain the explosion in crime in the 1960s during a period of time when the poverty rate was falling? Crime also exploded in the late 80s and early 90s again during a period of declining poverty rates. So how do you explain it?

    Such bullshit. You’re either a piece of shit and have the capacity to commit crimes or you don’t. I’ve been poor and it never occurred to me to steal or kill someone. Poor people can also eat right and exercise if they choose to. People who stay poor do so for a reason, because they are pieces of shit and capable of this shit. People who are poor but transition through it at some point (the vast majority) do so because they aren’t pieces of shit. Rich people certainly commit crimes, for the same reason poor people do, they are horrible people. There is just less of them.

    So the lack of money is what causes people to commit crime according to our liberal friend but he has no answer for why crime fell during a period of time with increasing poverty, and why crime increased during a period of decreasing poverty.


    If you were really interested in discovering the root causes of crime in American I'd suggest you take a look at the correlation between being raised in single parent household and criminal behavior and even when you control for income, a more secure financially single parent statistically is still more likely to have a kid get involved in criminal activity than kids raised in a poorer two parent family.

    It's the fault of the people raising these killers. If your kid need psych drugs firearms shouldn't be in your home.

    Many raising them with no moral conviction sure isn't helping anything.

    You go on and keep blaming others. That's one of the biggest problems.

    I think it’s video games.

    Certainly not solely, but a kid who plays a first person shooter 10 hours a day will be impacted.

    Really it's about the desensitizing of people due to technology. Many if most young people now, don't talk to other people unless they have to. It's all via SMS and social media. Life isn't real to a lot of young people today.

    I watched a townhall on teenage suicide and mass violence last week. And the overarching cause that came down from both the "experts" and the kids was the isolation that technology has allowed. Be it social media, smart phones, video games, message boards and what have you. People do not know how to A: Converse in a healthy manner anymore and B: Do so respectfully. I give you the Tug as exhibit A. Imagine the Tug but a bunch 15 y/o's on it.
