I also wish the victims of the actual mass murder today received half as much attention. Or at least as much as the dog received.

But you notice after the knee jerk reactions it became rather quiet.
The method of murder wasn't included in the cirst reports so it was assumed they were shot. Once it was reported that they were stabbed *poof* interest was lost.
Yesterday clearly illustrates that victims are simply pawns. There is no real concern except how they relate to guns.
I will clearly explain for the inevitable alert-
-five people murdered and a child critically wounded. Poster started running through the blood to blame guns and all gun owners. Once it was found they were stabbed, the same posters couldn't be bothered to express any concern for the dead or wounded, even if they took the time to delete their knee jerk posts
-a idiot mistakes a dog for a lion and wounds it. This received multiple times the attention and concern for the dogs well being than the stabbing victims
- dumbass shoots a parking lot while outside a recuiters office. At least twice the commentary the mass murder received.
-an actual shooting occurs and the stampede is on. As usual the mass guilt is assigned
Four incidents. Three involving guns one ends with five people dead. Which was the least important.
For myself, I am concerned about victims. Gun control which reduces crime- great but I am more concerned with what causes teens to murder five people than a hole in a parking lot. That one can be handled with a cine and forfeiture of the weapon.

(2,375 posts)Yes......it is truly despicable how little interest The Controllers have w/regard to murder victims that don't die by guns, while hypocritically attacking us for our "lack of compassion" about folks who do. Astonishing, really, the complete lack of self-awareness these people possess.
