Instead of trying to find a solution for the madness that is school shootings, they just kind of accepted it and Sharon had to accept living with people who were crazy and didn't understand at all how to solve a problem. Is that the kind of world we want our kids living in, a place where we accept school shootings are a normal thing and just have faith? What was the whole message behind that episode? South park usually tries to make some kind of point and I feel like they made no real point there other than an entertaining and slightly humorous episode about how crazy school shootings are.

School shootings are a sympton of gun violence not the cause of gun violence.

There is pretty much no solution because America is so gun crazy. Either in worship or fear of guns.

So wheelbarrows full of dead kids is just something we have to accept sadly. People literally just don't care.

^ Hey now that's completely unfair.

They really don't. They usually take the path of both sides suck. South Park is just a show that satirizes reality.

The point is that school shootings have turned into something acceptable in USA.

They were pointing out how ridiculous it is that people just accept it.

Ah went right over my head, thanks for clearing that up. It's actually a pretty sad episode then, sad reality we live in.

It seemed like it was meant more to piss off gun nuts.

That's the point. They are saying that gun violence is such a normal part of life that people have just accepted it. Sharon is the only sane person in a crazy world yet even she chose the easy way out at the end.

Well that's the truth, dead kids didn't change any minds, dead reporters, dead gamers just minding their own business didn't change any minds, shootings are just apart of life in america, we don't even care about obvious corruption from the government or law enforcement anymore.

South Park mocked itself for being too preachy once. I think that's a pretty solid sign that it is.

With that being said, they do a good job of putting in enough comedy that even if you don't agree with the message, you can still appreciate the satire. And their preachiness does call out both sides, even if it calls out the left a bit more. (But what do you expect when they're the easier target?)

Basically this.

America has all but accepted dead kids as an acceptable price for fetishising guns.

Was it though, I have not seen anyone call it a masterpiece. It was overhauled sure but for the most part it seems that people just liked it.
