Have y'all seen the latest? The families of the victims killed in Buffalo, NY mass shooting have now sued several social media companies. They are blaming the shooting on them. At least they are not blaming it on the gun this time. What is our world becoming? Don't blame the shooter, blame everyone and everything but them.

The democrats say that if the shooter didn't have a gun it wouldn't have happened. It is/was news. Should the media not report the news? Would it be better if no one knew about what was happening? Whether they are reporting or causing the news is a good question without a real answer. Kind of like whether the gun or the person selling the gun or the shooter is causing the killing.

In my own personal opinion, mass shooters are looking for attention, yes. They get this attention from the people around them when they commit the shootings whether it is reported nationally or not. They want to committ suicide and don't want to do it quietly or by themselves. Or they are filled with rage and mad at the world. The news media might contribute to the problem a small amount but not that much. Mass shooters live in their own little world. Listen to the news reports. No one ever knows who they are. Does anyone remember the name of any mass shooter.

Apparantly our liberal schools are now teaching kids that the only recourse for being mistreated by society is to go out and committ a mass shooting. Where else would they be learning this? Schools are now busy teaching kids about transgender. Schools are teaching them that guns should be controlled. Why don't they teach them that killing their fellow students is wrong?
