Armed citizen shoots gunman and saves lives

1st. Nowhere does it even hint that this guy was going on a shooting spree. It sounds more like he just had beef with the doctor.
2nd. Was the shooter a patient in a psychiatric hospital? If so how did he get a gun? Its because of the NRA that ANY nut-job with a couple hundred bucks can go out and buy a killing machine.
1)He killed his case worker, then he tried to kill the doctor. 2)He wasn't a patient in the hospital. He just had an appointment there. The NRA advocates in favor of denying guns ownership to mentally disturbed people.

On a side note, I suspect the doctor will be terminated for having a gun in his office.

That part of it will be interesting. Watching the hospital fire that doctor for saving the lives of dozens of people.

this is a simple fact, and it is not caused by "poverty" (more whites below the poverty line than any other group) or racist prosecutions (look at the crimes of stupidity, like drunk driving, where each race is roughly represented by their population, how curious) or by "SES".
study after study shows that crime is correlated to poverty more than race, but feel free to continue proving to us that you are nothing but a mouthpiece for white supremacy falsehoods.

Kynes,
RE: illegal arms and Mexico.
I can't dispute that logic. After all, we have plenty of illegal arms, too, smuggled from the USA.
But FYI, we have (had) plenty of home invasions, as well, generally among the Asian community (ahemtriadscough). We also have other gang problems including out-in-the-open executions at coffee shops or "bubble-tea" lounges.
Yet ,we still don't feel the need to be armed to the teeth at all times.
I don't believe this is strictly a "crime" or "meth-PCP-Crack-crazed" issue, either. It's probably John Wayne's and Charlton Heston's fault.

Our greatest hero (of the last 40 years, anyway) was a man with cancer who ran across the country on one leg and a prosthetic.
America (from my perspective) prefers the traditional "Rambo" who will blaze a path through a bunch of "bad guys" to save that poor sap who got popped in the leg by a sniper (in a war he probably didn't want in the first place).
I suspect therein lies the fundamental pivot. But I stand to be corrected.

We also don't go around the world creating boogeymen for our MI-complex to profit on, while reinforcing the irrational fears of the populace (in the event of Red Menace, duck and cover). That might be another factor which has played into the median American's psyche, especially during the 20th century.

So, I guess I agree; the issue is more complex in America considering the history and priorities.
Never mind the inflection point was probably passed loooooooonnnnnnnng ago; therefore, it may not even be a feasible option to propose less armaments.

But, what about 4 or 5 generations from now? Considering the influence of global communication in geo-political change, those anachronistic values which have sustained the "gun culture" will be hard-pressed to continue unabated; people will simply be more informed or into "new" things.
Or maybe the gunpowder method will be surpassed by new classes of "home" protection, like portable rail-guns or chemical "immobilizers". Hell, why not zap intruders with Tesla-coils and sonic-weapons?

Who knows, though...maybe the US will become what Mexico is today, and it'll be Canada and Mexico trying to keep the American "fat-backs," with man-boobs like "cantaloupes", from rolling their gelatinous carcasses across the ditches along the 49th. Or maybe tie a bunch of them together and make a raft on course for Cuba!

We can't let dem terk er jerbs!

But I digress...
if you want to champion the anecdote of Dr. Gunemdown, go ahead; however, don't forget about the other people who died that day because of the easy access. After all, how did the fuck-up get the gun in the first place?

"Freedom" (undefined) is never without cost.

excuse the KKK....lol. nice try. where is my "excuse?"
you're trying to minimize the role of those racists. you're trying to "excuse" them as just some fringe element, when we have so many on this very forum who sympathize with or enable these radical christian jihadi hate groups.

and yes, these racists do self identify as christians and want to "preserve their way of life", which is the exact same thing jihad aims for. the body count of these sick fucks over the last decade in america belongs to christian jihadists like the KKK and their radical christian supporters.

when the terrorists kill to preserve their way of life and call it jihad, you crucify them.

when the terrorists kill to preserve their way of life and call it anti-jihad or pro-life, you excuse them.

i won't even count the innocent children who have died because their religious extremist parents who refuse blood transfusions or other medical procedures that will save their childrens' lives.

That's probably a good idea; bullets are complicated enough. Speaking of which...

I'm having difficulty figuring out how to draw that picture.
