Your own arguments don't add up though. Shootings are so common they aren't even reported locally (which is bullshit) to any possible shooting is so aggressively covered everyone wants to be at it.

UK shootings gain the exact same US media if not more and it's exactly the same every time a US shooting happens. In fact we get the ability to report that news with some slight moral superiority so if anything we report it more.

Yet still no one really asks kids why they do it.

LOL

I suggest you reread my post above. I even added a "So, the argument in that video is that" line to suggest that the argument is made in the videos, yet not necessarily my own.

I also added "There are leaps in logic in that reasoning (such as where the fuck do they get the weapons in the first place) which is why I posted it here to initiate some kind of a discussion on the topic for the nth time", but clearly you did not see this yet are arguing as if my position equals that in the video.



Let's try again

Did I ever claim something as ridiculous as that?

to any possible shooting is so aggressively covered everyone wants to be at it.

Most shootings do not leave the local news, which is indicative to how common they are. With this I mean they are only covered in local news, yet not on a national scale in the US. You can check out the website I linked above. As you can see, it's literally a daily thing. Covering all of this nationally would be simply overwhelming

UK shootings gain the exact same US media if not more and it's exactly the same every time a US shooting happens. In fact we get the ability to report that news with some slight moral superiority so if anything we report it more.

Yet still no one really asks kids why they do it.

I did not know that mass shootings was a problem in the UK



So, to clarify, my position is akin to "total amount of guns (also per capita)" or "ease of arming oneself" in the USA are the clear culprits of what is going on over there.

False

You just never hear about because the kids never say "I did it because guns are fun and easy to get". The real answer doesn't help advance the left's political agenda, so it's not newsworthy.

I agree, that being said it's not like the news is explicitly left.

Someone got shot not that far away from where I live the other day, but guns are illegal :/

My only point is that we DO know why people commit crimes like this. They are unable to bear the suffering in their life. They blame life itself for the suffering. And on their way to escaping life and its inherent suffering, they take their revenge on life. Taking revenge on life means causing as much havoc, mayhem, sadness, suffering, anger, and hysteria as possible. Random mass murder accomplishes that.

The obvious follow up question should be "Why was he so mad?"

Instead the leftist news media asks "Why did he have a gun?" and "Why didn't a psychologist exercise tyrannical control over this person's life and prevent this?" [Cause psychologists are all open minded, level headed, unbiased people without political agendas.....right?]
