Another shooting..

Originally posted by -DaGoN- I'm sorry, but in my opinion (!), that is just absolute bullsh.it, I actually laughed out loud when I read that Dr.D, no offense though :P Praying with the whole class, every morning, doesn't stop the average lunatic from shooting kids.. It never has done that before, it's absolutely stupid to think THAT'S the cause for it IMO. Hey, here in Germany, religion is kept out of school for a really long while now, no prayers, just voluntary religion classes (you have to choose between that, which is divided into catholic/protestant, or a sort of Philosophy/Ethics class).. guns are NOT easily allowed here...and our "massacre" rate is lower, even proportionally, considering the amount of citizens. The "right to bear arms" does make it easier, though it's not the cause. You wanna know why there's an progressive increase in these massacres ? Cause the more happen, the more people in desperate/extreme situations find out about them, some very few might think that's an option for their problem, might get "inspired".. making someone (who might not believe in God) pray every moring won't change sh.it about the nutheads going crazy :P Originally posted by ax412 Prayer Skill > I won a duel tourny due to it ;)  You know, you are allowed to say the truth, give yourself the credit haha :P

I gave credit where credit was/is due.
I haven't played with that sense of peace or focus in a long time.

I used to pray every mornin in school until the 5th grade then someone decided it hurt someone else's feelings. Prayer does work.. End of discussion I agree. Even a non believer like myself can see that religion serves a purpose in society. It helps maintain a level of self control.

It's whatever.

The point is,  the people of Colorado wouldve been less wounded if the person had a knife rather than a gun. Same theory applies to the school... BAN GUNS. FKIN SOME CRAZY ASS LIVES IN AMERICA Who is this guy?

I was just saying how it wasn't as common as a problem. Now it's once a month there's a school massacre, and it's a shame. But don't tell me that prayer doesn't work, when I know for myself that it does. I am blessed;)

Religion is the key word. Even to the untrained eye, we can see that the average American Christian contradicts the New Testament on a daily basis lol. 

Prayer>
I won a duel tourny due to it ;)

discussing how to make things better is a good thing... ignoring a problem doesn't help the problem... sending our prayers is a good thing... it shows we have compassion and that we care... sometimes a few kind words can make someone feel a little bit better... we joke with eachother on here about ut3 skill, but i don't think anyone on here is without compassion

Originally posted by Sephiroth_V7 Originally posted by JPINATOR settle down seph, no one mentioned a gun ban.. lol don't know where you read that, unless you're saying that in general then uh yeah.. I agree. Seriously??? Cuz uh.... Originally posted by phhiLLN Guns will never be banned. Given 300+ million people, there will be mentally insane people in the bunch. The sad truth is you just have to hope a disaster like this doesn't happen to you, your family, led alone again at all. As it nears 12-21, I fear that there will be more disasters. :( Originally posted by Deadaim banning guns is fkn retarded. they can't ban previously bought guns.. and all the crazy people already own guns.. and all the criminals don't give a f*** if they are banned. banning guns would only affect a law abiding citizen like myself.. that likes having glock 19s and sig m400's for home protection and target shooting. Sick of "gun ban" being the first thing out of ppls mouths everytime a shooting happens. Ppl need to understand it wont solve sh1t and the more important thing out there is that 20 elementary students are not home with their parents tonight. Send prayers, not false solutions for the future. These arn't the "Fvcking idiots" i speak of though, i was talking about everyone else in america like most news crews. Prolly should word that better so i dont have an angry controller mob after my ass :S

Lol can't fix stupid. I'm done with my opinion, you kids have fun

But why can't ppl saying something for the family's first? If he would have stabbed them would you be able to talk about the family's loss first then, or would it be about how steak knifes should be no more than 1 inch long? I'm not b****ing at philln or deadaim. I was talking about the media. I only quoted them to prove the word gun ban was mentioned in this thread. I was stating my opinion on media coverage of the shooting and how they make it more about what to do about guns then they do about honoring the deceased and heros that saved the children that could have lost there lives. You wanna talk about a gun ban? Its the dumbest thing ever. To many guns out there already. Taking gins from the innocent would only help the criminals that will get/have a gun already.

Once again not attacking you Iamgaming folk, so u simmer down.
