I, admittedly, think about it pretty frequently. Not to the point where I'm irrationally afraid to leave home or distracted by it whenever I'm out in public. But I do keep vigilant and think about things like escape routes in a given area lol

Not unless it happens in my bedroom and for some reason, one person qualifies as a mass quantity.

I don't necessarily worry about being a victim, but I do worry that a venue or event that I might attend could have some kinda shooting.

I do consciously avoid crowded places and big events. Mostly because I don't like big crowds, but also partially because I know those are the places most attractive to people who want to cause an incident.

Kind of. I have a mental check list I go through any time I'm in public but it's not like it causes me distress. It's as reflexive as looking both ways before crossing the street or buckling up in a car. Just do it and go about my business.

Lol no.

Not only isnt that level of crime something we see here often whatsoever, its quite rare... it also seems to be consistently in larger cities too, which i dont live in either.

The 2 biggest disasters i know off from the last decade, BOTH happened in the capital, which is located on the countries eastern border (ignoring one small isolated island, like how the Us has Hawaii), i live in the western region.

I get where you're coming from, but you could literally be the first person hit when they open fire.

Is Aiden Pearce the guy from Watch Dogs? I thought he was a super boring protagonist. I could never focus on the story because he bored me so much.

He could also protect people if his mind is in the right place. You should be more worried about how the shooter got a hold of weapons without anyone stopping him for not having the mental capabilities to use it responsibly

little bit. there was a shooting at an event my wife and i wanted to attend a few years ago. i would legitimately avoid pride events going forward with the militias that have been plotting on them. my wife's parents were talking about joining militias in 2020. there have been students caught in my town that brought guns to schools recently. i'm not at the point where i would avoid going out in public entirely, but shooters are definitely on my mind.

Worried? Absolutely not. It's completely inevitable and there's literally nothing me or anyone can do. Why worry about something that's inevitable? Would be a waste of my time.

No. Here in Arizona, everyone can conceal carry without a permit. Shootings can and do happen, but mass shootings are rare. They're usually drug deals gone wrong, gang related stuff, domestic violence stuff, and other personal things between people who know each other.

Probably still far, far more likely to die from a car accident or something (or in my case particularly, some health related incident), so ehh.

I don't really go outside much, plus I don't live in the US anymore.

no. statistically me being killed in a mass shooting is about on par with drowning in my bathtub or also just short of getting hit by lightning. people need to lay off the news which makes it sound like youre going to get shot as soon as you come out of your house.
