School Shooting Santa Fe, TX

Not in real life.

However in a video game involving two enemie titans close together in the sky, you boosted over to invade the enemy ship and blow up it's console rooms in each of the 4 colored hallways (Or was it two, I forget) as part of the progression towards victory.

One time I got aboard the enemy Titan on the aft deck and found a hallway blue a complete and absolute perfect kindergarden school line of many people waiting for one of their teammates to make the console room half way down to get blown up.

I knifed the first one. Then the next then the next then the next. I finally knifed the console attacker as he laid the last C4 onto the desk. 18 in total.

The game chat essentially exploded when the entire team realized what I had done using my Heavy552 avatar with a knife all the way down the line.

I logged out shortly after having saved the fraps of that event recording for a while. It was such a waste that all of the 18 people kept looking straight ahead waiting for the console person to blow the thing up and hurry. And people behind them were systematcially being knifed one at a time rapidly with game kill by knife messaging scrolling in the top right corner and nothing on chat from anyone until I had about 6 people left to knife in that hallway and two in the console room. By the time they read the frantic warnings from game chat, they too were knifed.

And there my score stood at 18 kills by blade on the game server scoreboard for all to see.

In all my years of gaming, I have never seen such a pile on abuse, profanity, anger enough to cause harm and essentially screeching and screams of accusations that I cheated. I did not. I juist swung the blade 18 times, taking a step or two each swing to the next person in line down that hall. So easy.

That changed that particular public server room after that was done. Everyone now looks 360 around them. Which is a good thing. You never know when I might get into another group like that again someday.

 

He didn't follow any existing laws anyways. He was 17...He couldn't legally own any of the firearms he used anyways (which DIDN'T include an AR), and somehow he made his own explosives too.

I'm all for expanded background checks possibly, as long as they're not gonna use petty little crap against you; but people need to quit acting like more and more stringent laws are the solution when ultimately, more often than not I'd bet, they'll just make it more difficult for good people to protect themselves and others.
Evil always finds a way and doesn't give a rat's ### about laws. Just ask the UK/London. Even with their CC network and no guns/knives laws, how many terrorist attacks have they had there so far within the last year?
The problem isn't really the tools, it's peoples' hearts to quote

Also, I don't think arming ALL the teachers is a valid answer either, but I think they should be provided the option to be so if they want to. But by that token, they should have to take so much training to able to make sure they know what they're doing (and yes, I believe all responsible firearms owners should be doing the same...I myself still take the time to learn and train in what capacity I have, even not owning any at this point & time).

It really takes a special kind of person to put themselves in harm's way to protect others, especially in situations like this. I may sound full of ####, but I'm one of those rarer people. I would gladly put my life on the line to save others' in a situation like this. If someone else wants the ability to do that, I believe they should have that. I know it's not an option/desire for everyone, but it's one that shouldn't be taken away from the others.

There, my rant is over. Sorry if I sounded angry or disrespectful: I just wanted to say my piece.

 

Shelbyville has a spike in crime but it is settling out as folks that get dealt with move to easier pickings. The Boro has its spots. Hell even little ol Tullahoma has its spot. Son lives over by there. After a talk with some local hoods we have no issues

Memphis just has to many folks on the government dole. Lots of good hard working folks there, but they are outnumbered by seedy people. Buddy of mine runs local there for us. Had an issue in his neighborhood over off Germanton rd. He and a few of his neighbors started armed patrols and the criminals moved elsewhere. Folks should spend time cleaning up their own neighborhoods. They know who is slinging dope. Breaking into homes. Stealing, extorting, etc. People know who the scumbags are. But they claim "Well it is none of my business" until it happens to them.

And the first thing they need to do is get the #### vagrants off the medians and off ramps. Had one walk in front of me on purpose the other day. Dumb ### is not going to survive to sue of I hit him with a truck. The 4 that work Perkins road at 240 are a huge PIA

 

Yeah, things here in Springfield, MO are getting bad too.
I started carrying every day especially when I was driving cab when some random guy I'd never met before whipped up behind me, got out, and tried starting a fight with me while trying to break into my car at a red light.
I've been assaulted, had a gun held to my head, had a tweaker try choking me to death with my own seatbelt, and had a least a few people try to run me off the road.
I fully believe in my 2nd Amendment right to arm and protect myself, and any others. This world is just getting worse and worse period.

 

Oh yeah I see them all the time at that exit on Perkins. I always have to go that way to make deliveries. It's always the same folks over there. I always tell people if they have the hours and they don't have to deliver in Memphis, push past it. It can get rough in some spots, and these theives are smart in their own way. They know out of towners instantly. They know who don't have a lick of street sense too.

 

Guns are not the problem!

 

Maybe they are, maybe they aren't. Bottom line, people should not have super easy access to them. It's easier to get a gun than a liveable wage lol. Just like we get evaluated closely to operate a cmv, the same should happen to legally carry.

 

Guns should be sold at the corner store. I don't think we should lose our fundamental rights because some people are scared.

 

Doors. Doors are the problem.
Ritalin. Ritalin is the problem!
Video games. Video games are the problem!
A culture of violence. A culture of violence is the problem!

It seems that everything EXCEPT guns, is The Problem.

 

Fundamental right....maybe in 1776 before everything advanced. In my mind, that doesn't benefit society on a grand scale....if everyone had a gun, it would not be a good thing. I don't even think it's a good thing that some people have them now. Law enforcement, military and civilians with access to fire arms is borderline anarchy.
