Active Shooter Inside YouTube Headquarters

Why does the Left automatically assume that anyone who wonders about the association between her Muslim faith and this crime is a racist or an Islamophobe?

The fact that you assume she was Muslim for starters. I've only seen one reference to her religion, and it says she was Bahai.

Jesus fucking Christ. You racists hunters are NUTZ.

I'm thinking in terms of probabilities.

Wikipedia says that 99.4% of Iranians' religion is Islam, and second generation Imigrants -regardless of ethnicity or religion- are likely to follow in the footsteps of their parents. So I automatically assumed that she was Muslim,
If the shooter was a second generation white guy from Hungary, I'd assume that they were Christians or Atheists.
 
We all think in terms of stereotypes. That's how our brains work, it doesn't make us racists.

When I hear "White male shooter" I automatically think "Disgrunted mannwith a personality disorder and an axe to grind."
For "Muslim male" - could it be ISIS?

For "White female and Muslim females I'd think "maybe a psychtic disorder".
I wouldn't have thought about ISIS in the case of Muslim women before, but for the latest news that ISIS is now trying to recruit young women. Still, I think it's a very slim possibility.

Or you could have just, i dunno, Googled it.

Personally, I would have guessed atheist or at least very secular, judging from her official persona. But I didn't have to guess.

I mean, Hamas, Hezbollah and Al-something (not al quaeda, another one, cant rmemeber the name) have all famously used female front "soldiers". Suicide bombers et al. So it's not that odd an idea. They make fine martyrs for the propaganda machine.

Or that picture that Amoeba posted, with her hnderwear almost showing and her breasts half hanging out should have been my clue. :D
 
Because the madness excuse.

You think she was an atheist? And hey -- here is WikiPedia on mass shootings in USA. Which on that list are atheists? How do you know?

I assumed that they weren't Religious.

Christians aren't spotless either - and theyvcommitted atrocities and colonized other countries,
but their motivations seemed different from these lone wolf disgrunted suicidal killers.

If a white guy starts shooting people in an Abortion clinic I'd think Christian. If a white guy starts shooting at a mostly Black crowd, I'd think racist.
But they shot mostly innocent White and Latino people.

&^^^^ Here is hashtag rationalizing his racism. :rolleyes:
 
So the shooter was upset over changes at YT that resulted in fewer hits to her vegan PETA cat-loving shows and therefore lower revenue.

And her next logical course of action was to randomly shoot drone worker bees in YT's Mountain View offices. And then kill herself.

And those are pretty much the facts?

Yup. The same when some guy goes shooting at a law office because he was fired:

Are you kidding? Nikolas Cruz had the best mental health care and was pronounced mentally fit. You say it wasn't adequate, without any evidence other than his rampage. Fuck that noise.

No other evidence?

You're kidding me, right?

Multiple reports to the FBI, dozens of calls to local police, multiple students claiming they were afraid of him, the parkland kids who claimed they "knew he was going to do it" and who didn't report him? The amount of kids who admitted that they bullied him?

Come on, not even you can believe that nonsense.

That's someone you'd consider "healthy and sane", and who didn't need better treatment?
 
You're surprised the media painted her that way? They specialize in fear mongering.
She obviously had Disassociative Identity Disorder with a huge helping of Paranoid Schizophrenia.




Universal health care.



Agreed. We do it with cigarettes to combat the costs to our health care system.





Well said.



A socialist after my own heart :D
True dat. Although adequate therapy is a necessary part of healing, pills just don't cut it by themselves, especially when they come with disclaimers about suicidal and 'unusual' behaviours.
Obviously she suffered from comorbid mental health issues and treating the symptoms with medications makes Big Pharma happy but doesn't solve the root cause of her issues.

The people in this thread who think that pill farms are adequate mental health care must be on some crazy chemical cocktails themselves.

It doesn't make any sense, and the one common thread of people who drive their kids off of roads, kill themselves in a variety of ways, and pick up a gun and commit murder in this way, is untreated mental illness, where all they are getting is a chemical cocktail of pills.

The problem is a lack of support, a lack of real mental health care, and a rush for our country (which spends more per capita on health care, and provides lower quality service, because of the for-profit model) to make a buck off of people's suffering, rather than treat them holistically.

The people who keep saying "we have to wait to ask for universal health care" have "blood on their hands" way more than any NRA lobbyist. But the Robs and the Hyproxia's of the world want to blame someone else, other than themselves.

We need universal health care, now.

Not in a few years, now.

The democrats failing to seize this moment, and the republican's fumbling around in the dark are culpable in people dying, going broke, and refusing to go in for treatment because those folks can't afford it.

You're likely right in this case, and I was also told that, in contrast to other 1st world countries, the US mental health system is underfunded.

But even if you improve that aspect, errors are likely to happen.
So why not make people go through more checks before getting hold of guns too? All other countries But for the US do it.

The two aren't mutually exclusive.

Nicolas Cruz had heaps of problems before and his second parent had just died.

He should have been seeing some sort of mental health professional for support (via referral by his teacher-school counsellor then/or mental health team).
His counsellor or whoever was seeing him would have then picked on his homicidal thoughts and the tragedy would have been avoided.

But psychological treatment is very expensive for the individual and isn't readily subsidised by the American Insurance System. That's why so many Americans are overmedicated instead.

If the democrats would stop trying to exclusively pass anti-gun bills, I'd have no problem supporting it. We already go through a tremendous amount though, just to be perfectly clear.

Support reciprocity, the hearing protection act, and do away with the 1968 GCA and I'd have no problem with more background checks. I pass 2-4 every day, so for me personally that's a non-issue.

Which makes me assume that you're into some sort of gun trade.
That's actually interesting and different.
