OT: Southport Shooting
I don’t know if anyone saw the news about the shooting in my little coastal town in NC. A restaurant/bar my family and I frequent often had a shooting with 3 people being killed. I would often take the golf cart up there for a beer and listen to local music. A man in a boat docked up and opened fire. My wife and I were going but it was raining last night and we stayed home. Just tragic and it’s more than just the news when it’s home. One of our friends was amongst one of those injured. Our town is a sleepy coastal town you would never dream something like this could happen. Just sick right now.
I am so sorry to hear about this. Sending positive and healing vibes. I hope they catch whoever did this.

Thanks. They did catch him. He was a former marine wounded in Iraq and suffering from mental issues.
Sad. Hope it brings it the best in your community.
a false flag event is coming soon to recapture the narrative
There are 2-3 topics that are almost fully discovered , sites out and recognized for what they are.
Leadership has lost it's way.
I'm so sorry that your community is going through that...and I notice that the Mormon Church rammed/shot up in Michigan today was also by an ex Marine...
...very brutal day.
KOC, JJM, Flores...make a good plan, or you'll be following Kwesi....
Maybe we should all stop glorifying these type of tragedies and knock it off with the over the top rhetoric. Lots of support for Charlie Kirk's shooter. Celebrities well...celebrated. Luigi is a superstar with a multi-million dollar gofundme and millions of fans.

the apparent fact that both of these most recent shootings are the act of ex-military that have been reported to be mentally messed up should be the focus and should drive more funding for our country's veterans, especially focusing on mental health. We cant keep taking kids turning them into killing machines, sending them to the worst place in the world, where they see the worst things that humanity can muster up, and when they are done we just open the doors and kick them out into a world that is often much different than the one they have been living in. I dont know what the right way necessarily looks like, but I can sure as hell identify a failed approach.
Whats really sad is all those that step up and fund things like Luigi, and celebrate Charlie's killerS, most wouldnt look twice at the men and women that have sacrificed themselves to defend the freedoms that allow people to be the way they are.
and as much as both parties like to wave the patriotic banners and flags... neither seems to do much.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?
I'm very sorry to hear about this.
Unfortunately, it is endemic to what is happening in our entire country. For some reason, we are the worst in the world in this regard.
My question is why?
Is it easy access to guns of any type?
Is it the anonymous dumbing down of emotions from playing too many violent video games?
Is it the disintegration of mental health noted with former military?
Is the tacit approval of violence to solve angst?
I don't know...all I know is that I have questions as these situations become more and more commonplace in any of our communities.
