No fucking way... Wow. This is insane. When will this shit stop? It has been out of control for so long.


It'll never stop in America. As long as we have this fetish to own efficient tools of murder, this is the blood that will be spilled. Americans have accepted the tradeoff

I don't think our Founding Fathers had these weapons in mind when the Constitution was written. The problem is once you give people that kind of power its very hard to take it away.

Give it decades time when Generation Z is in power and it might change. I've noticed they are the only ones who really care about it. It seems that everyone else doesn't really take it seriously.

Like someone said, Sandy Hook was the end. Once the NRA convinced people that 20+ dead kids were an acceptable trade for lax gun legislation, there was no turning back.

The only way gun laws in this country will ever change is if...nah, fuck it. I can't even think of a way. And I say this as a gun owner.

This shit just sickens me. I'm going to go eat pizza and drink soda. At least then I won't be sick and hungry.

All I can say is that this is truly an awful tragedy, especially when it occurred at a place that was supposed to be fun and enjoyable.

My heart goes out to the poor victims of today's tragedy.

Not a gun owner, but yes this. After 20 children are murdered we have the current president of the US celebrate with the sick man who says it all was a hoax while nothing has been done about guns or mental health

The shooter was a gamer who was competing in the tournament and lost, according to Steven Steveyj Javaruski, one of the competitors.

The shooter targeted a few people and shot at least five victims before killing himself, Javaruski told The Times in a direct message on Twitter. The gunman killed two or three people that I saw, Javaruski said.

America will never fucking learn no matter what.

For whom the gun tolls
For whom the prey weeps
Bow before a war
Call it religion
Some wounds never heal
Some tears never will
Dry for the unkind
Cry for mankind
Even the dead cry
Their only comfort
Kill your friend, I don't care
Orchid kids, blinded stare
Need to understand
No need to forgive
No truth no sense left to be followed
Facing this unbearable fear
like meeting an old friend
"Time to die, poor mates,
You made me what I am!"
In this world of a million religions
everyone prays the same way
"Your praying is in vain
It'll all be over soon"
Father help me, save me a place by your side!
"There is no God Our creed is but for ourselves"
"Not a hero unless you die Our species eat the wounded ones"
Drunk with the blood of your victims
I do feel your pity-wanting pain,
Lust for fame, a deadly game
"Run away with your impeccable kin!"
"Good wombs hath borne bad sons"
Cursing, God, why?
Falling for every lie
Survivors' guilt
In us forevermore
Fifteen candles
Redeemers of this world
Dwell in hypocrisy:
"How were we supposed to know?"
Four pink ones
Nine blue ones
Two black ones

Yes, because someone willing to turn the gun on themselves would be deterred from committing a violent act knowing they will be shot.

Agreed. A lot of competitive games aren't well balanced and sometimes have more than their fair share of bullshit players have to deal with, but part of being a competitive player is learning to take the good with the bad, regardless if it is the game and / or the lack of a player's skill at fault. It's just something the best competitive players accept and strive to overcome. If someone can't get over this they probably just shouldn't play the game competitively. Especially if they have severe mental issues and are prone to do acts extreme violence.

It's just incredibly sad that a group of people went there to test their skills against peers and the winner(s) possibly walk away with something nice, all the while doing something they love, and some selfish homicidal lunatic with a frail ego couldn't get over his loss and decides to end some of their lives. This honestly makes me worry for smaller competitive esports venues in the future that can't afford armed security.

Makes you wonder if the reddit detectives got it right for once.

Maybe he was the shooter, maybe Twitter smacked him because of the bad timing.

This. He tweeted after losing and pretty much just said he was outplayed and congratulated the guy who beat him.

Eh, not everybody is going to immediately take to Twitter after being in the vicinity of a mass shooting.

It sounded like he was frustrated and felt like he was cheated, but yeah he still congratulated his opponent. Nothing about his tweets really suggested to me that he would have been the shooter.

Not just them, but the killer's family too. Pieces of shit never think about what these things will do to their own loved ones.
