Not all America is like that, so don't jump to conclusions!
Its real peaceful where I live, I leave my door unlocked when I leave and my keys in my ignition. Never ever had anyone pull a gun or anything like that, never had a problem with crime other than the occasional drunken idiot barfight.
However, if you went to say the Bronx, it's an entirely different story, I wouldn't go there without a gun. On 2nd thought, I wouldn't go there period, us white guys dont fair well in those parts.
Moral of the story: There are idiots in every country, as well as crime. There are also good honest people wherever you go, you just need to look harder to find them sometimes.
i know, and no puns are intended
only a week ago today there were 2 kids killed in a school bus crash only a few miles away from where this guy went on his rampage, hes killed 12 people, there are 25 more people in critical care, and then obviously he shot himself too...
so today being the funeral of one of them kids, thoughts with them etc, some dick has to go and take all the glory!
apparently he was a normal guy, no mental issues or anything, smiley friendly taxi driver from a small farming/mining village... really really weird tbh
he did it all with a full sized double barrelled shotgun, even walked up to a guy in a land rover and put 2 shells through his head...
