Current Events > Jesus, one of the thousand oaks victims was a Vegas shooting survivor.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Shit is kind of hitting me right now for some reason.

Like, you survive the worst mass shooting in American history while on vacation in Vegas, only to be gunned down in another mass shooting a fucking year later back at home.

Like. Fuck.

These sort of horrible coincidences happen, unfortunately:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsutomu_Yamaguchi

Tsutomu Yamaguchi ( Yamaguchi Tsutomu) (March 16, 1916 January 4, 2010) was a survivor of both the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombings during World War II.

Yamaguchi, a resident of Nagasaki, was in Hiroshima on business for his employer Mitsubishi Heavy Industries when the city was bombed at 8:15 am, on August 6, 1945. He returned to Nagasaki the following day, and despite his wounds, he returned to work on August 9, the day of the second atomic bombing. That morning, whilst being berated by his supervisor as "crazy" after describing how one bomb had destroyed the city, the Nagasaki bomb detonated.

This is America

How fucked is it that you survive a mass shooting in Vegas, only to die in a mass shooting in California

And how even more fucked is it that this is becoming a legit epidemic in our country?

You seem awfully pleased with yourself, just like all leftists who dance on the graves of dead victims and children. Congratulations.

Dude's been caught in more shooting ambushes than many soldiers.

It's like a lot of the world celebrates anything bad that happens here because it allows them to feel superior.

If the country and the politicians who run it did a better job to make people happy, instead of constantly steal our money via taxation and taking away our rights we would have less of these events.

Mass shootings are public suicides, nothing more, nothing less.

No, they're a hell of a lot more than a public suicide. It's taking others with you.
You wanna kill yourself, fine, do it, but don't take others with you.

I also think it has more to do with wildly prescribing drugs rather than politics

so... at what point does personal accountability come into play? do you value it at all?

there are Americans who have generations of struggles who don't have mass shooters in the family.

it seems like this is a trend for demographics of indignant folk who actually bought the idea of "I'm special and entitled."

Last weeks was a hate crime not a public suicide, just like all the mass shootings at religious places. You're being disrespectful to all those people that died.

Please tell me how the sentence Just proves how fucking often you guys have mass shootings is equal to celebrating that you had another shooting.

That is some super bad luck

they were both country music events, so it's logical that the fanbase would have some overlap

"It's hard to sleep after these kinds of things," said Dani Merrill, who lived through the Vegas massacre and escaped the Borderline bloodshed by running out the loading dock. "You just don't know how to feel.

Where'd you get your medical degree again?

Many of the Vegas survivors have died in the short time since it happened.

one of the people who died was Tamara Mowry's (from Sister Sister) niece

I always find that fascinating. I hope he said to his boss: "see?!" and then his boss died of embarrassment.

This is, like, the third or fourth time I saw an article about people who survived the Vegas shooting getting killed by another completely different unfortunate occurrence.
