minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish9•8 days agoIn general yes but this discussion is a out mass shootings.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•8 days agoThis discussion is about gun violence. Saying there weren’t a lot of school shootings back then is about as helpful to the root issue discussion as saying that cyberbullying wasn’t an issue before the 90s anyways.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish6•edit-28 days agoAlmost all comments in this chain, and indeed the immediate one you replied to mention “school shooting”. Beyond that, schools and dangerous guns existed before 1980. Edit even the original meme is about a school shooting
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•8 days agoSchool shootings aren’t a part of gun violence?

Why’s that?
Because they’re different crimes with different motives committed by different people under different circumstances.
Literally the only things in common between the two are firearms, humans being involved, and them both taking place on the planet Earth.
What makes those people different?
Well, serves me right for feeding the troll.
