Sneakylong And I’ll bet the shooters had some sort of gun that could fire rapidly.

Yup! Already heard a witnessed interviewed, "it looked like a machine gun". Also, two civilians tackled, disarmed and subdued one of the shooters before police officers arrived.

propman There was a shitload of defunding talk after the Floyd mess. Or don't you remember?

No, I'm not relaxing. How 'bout you think before you type. I already spoke to that stupidity. It was just bullshit reactivity. But it sure as shit didn't happen!

propman and actual defunding of police depts

Try not to make shit up.

professor maybe have a conversation with a cop about how criminals get back on the streets too quickly. It's a fact, not political.

    Weirfan Water Hazard

    Yeah, do that! Move this shit to places where people won't see it. We don't want our sensibilities offended and clearly folks have little desire to be informed.
    FFS this Super Bowl thread should have been moved to The Water Hazard when the grumpy old men started feeding into their hateful Taylor Swift's a "ho" bullshit.

      propman too bad the ones who are doing these shootings haven't been able to get the help they need. Be really nice to know what exactly makes a mass shooting...

      I see the dumb fuckin' Democrat, circle jerkers, dick head club has arrived. Fuckin' polluting every fuckin' thing they touch. If it wasn't for your liberal Democrat cities with strict gun laws, we would be anywhere near the top, you dumb mutherfuckers!!!

        Is this little snippet of your knowledge before or after defunding the police? I've got friends who are police officers and detectives. One won't typically just throw out blanket statements like yours without a level of insight into the complexity of the situation. Maybe I have some? Why do we have prison over-crowding? Why do we have professional prisons? What goes on in the corrections industry? What did the "war on drugs" do to people of color being incarcerated for status offenses? What products are produced, for profit in our prison industries? Who gets the money?

          propman professor what you don't believe in the Swift conspiracy??

          Not today. Maybe tomorrow after I resolve my own "ho"-like behavior when I was a young man. LOL

          professor my "snippet" applied before, during and after defunding talk.
          The overcrowding of prisons is just more reason why criminals walk early.

            propman
            It was just that - talk. And, those stupid loud voices on the far left were simply amplified to the level of daily doses of Hype by our shitty media outlets - all of them, in some way shape or form. Still, some are better than others.
            There's never been a de-funding!

            propman The overcrowding of prisons is just more reason why criminals walk early.

            Why does the United States incarcerate more people than any other nation by a huge margin? That's the problem. You're talking about a symptom. Then again, have you ever done any research on prison reform?

            Police officers most dread dealing with adolescents (especially those with guns) and domestic disturbances. Their top two!
            I spent over 40 years in the juvenile justice system and mental health. I've got a little bit of knowledge and experience.

            Rickochet You may have misunderstood what I was posting about. The 328 vacancies reported was the current official total. The current administration that is pro defunding police also had eliminated 100 other vacancies so instead of 428 actual vacancies the official total now is 328. Did you not understand this or do you just like to argue about shit?

            Nope You're not reporting on the St. Louis situation accurately. You're cherry-picking it for your talking points. The biggest issue in St. Louis is a major financial/budget problem. Folks aren't lining up to be police officers. It's not worth it. Beyond that, I do not support that de-fund the police bullshit but, I also know how to assess politicized issues like the mess they've got in St. Louis. At the same fucking time that they've got such lax gun laws?! Stop looking for scapegoats, putting band-aids on symptoms, and misrepresenting complex problems with inaccuracies.

            Rickochet I think this thread was about the Super Bowl, no?

            No, you forgot. It was about "ho's" like Taylor Swift.

            Rickochet Professor, when a thread gets off track why are you always in the middle of it?

            Am I in the middle before or after it goes off-track? Pretty sure Sneaky added a comment in this Super Bowl thread about a mass shooting. Why am I in the middle of it? Because I don't like to read bullshit and make believe it's accurate. What's your reason? Thoughtless comments you don't want to own? Example: I watch (read) you validate Par4QC's piggish comments, as if that's okay and even humorous.

              professor Because I don't like to read bullshit

              For your simple mind, I'll put this simply....DON'T FUCKING READ IT!!

              Yet you do.... then feel the, somewhat, dire need to make disparaging comments about the posters.

              Slut would have been the more proper/true(by definition) word, but that just seems so nasty.

                Which makes you a cunt. You got a daughter? You got a wife? You got a mother? Who are you to judge?

                  Rickochet Professor, when a thread gets off track why are you always in the middle of it?

                  Perhaps a better answer is that I have the decency and desire to speak truthfully about what I think and feel. If you don't like that, it's not my issue.
