This happened in Manchester, NH - City that I live and outside of the bar I frequently went to: (Warning: it is a gun murder, extremely graphic).
One dead, another going to prison for a long time.

Horrific as this is, can't get over how much of a little bitch do you have to be that someone throws a weak punch at you and you reach for your piece.

Hope you're alright exodus.

Thanks, I'm all right. Very concerned how little regard people have for a life. I just don't get it.
That dude was just waiting to kill someone. Emptied a clip for a punch? Didn't think to take a gun and see the reaction. No warning shot, straight cold execution. Sickening.

Just insane. Probably thought he was a real gangster. Hope he enjoys prison.

Yeah @nimic , why do you want to spoil the obvious joy these posters have in vividly imagining someone being brutally raped. Obviously, they have their kinks and who are you, sir, to kink shame.
Uh I am so ashamed of having a giggle of a possibility that a child molester and/or a murderer are experiencing violence in prison.

Hey, I’m on your side! I mean, who doesn’t find rape worthy of a giggle or two. It’s things like this that separate us from those monsters.

IMO gun control won't solve the issue. It may tone down things a little bit, but that's it. It's really a cultural thing in USA to have a gun and follow the old rule of "I ain't seen a problem that can't be solved by kickin ass" mentality. Mix those together and you get an explosive cocktail of gun related murders, assaults, etc.

There are other countries (yes, even in Europe) with the same leniency on people having guns that don't have as much trouble as US does.

Even in countries that don't have those rules, it's actually relatively easy to get a weapon on the black market, or alternatively you can just join a hunting club / target shooting club and get a gun legally for leisure purposes. But the majority of the people on those countries don't have that mindset of owning gun, unless they are those hunting fetishist or criminal organizations or just people who obsess by having a gun.

If guns became controlled, those people who really want a gun would easily get them in the black market.

Getting closer to reality...


I love the fact that so many Florida residents seem to care about shit like this, and gas stoves, and the war on Christmas than they do something like climate change. Something that actually is real and an absolute threat to their state.

It's batshit. It really is.

This is very out of character for NJ if it was politically motivated. Local politics don’t mean anything in the state as far as blue or red so I am assuming the killer knew the victim.

Except for the fact that this data is a massive act against personal privacy and, knowing Republicans, can be used for God-knows what, conflating it to the issue with gas stoves and the ‘war on Christmas’ is completely inappropriate.

It’s on a completely different level.

Education is always key but control guns or the use of them even more. There might be countries that they might be able to obtain a gun legally but they need to pass a background test, and they might need to show proficiency and they probably have limitations where they can have it (home. shooting range) or how you transport it (unloaded in a box in your trunk). What it doesnt make sense is that you can carry an assault rifle in a supermarket or anywhere. If fines would be heavy on having a gun out at the open, no one would be stupid enough to show them around or even bring them hidden. And if someone would see somebody with a gun, they would not say: "whatever". Would say: "what the feck is going on!"

Then, you say that they would be able to buy it in the black market....Well, I was talking with a guy that I told him that I never seen a gun in Spain besides police/military and rifles for hunting (scarce) and he said, well I could get you an AK-47 for 15.000 euros.

But as Jim Jeffries said in his bit, if you have 15.000 euros, you are little saver keep going!

I am sure you can get guns for free just stealing from any random person if you are in a life of crime. If guns would be restricted and it would be a decent buyback option, little shits that can get a gun for the cheap, they would need to get 15.000 euros/usd first to get a gun. Sure some would have them, but they would be so few, that they would be detected more often and with the right punishment, would make little sense

It will always be crime, it will be always crimes with guns, but there is a lot of senseless bullshit shootings and accidents

Also, the police, if they would know that people would be way less likely to get a gun, they would be less trigger happy because it would way less risk to get shot and also they would not be able to use the excuse: " I thought he/she had a gun" because now, everybody (every jury that judges them) believe them because it can be plausible, but without guns in the streets several would make little sense to be true

In any case, why not fecking try it, just to see what happens

Sometimes I ask myself what more should be done against neo-nazis. At some point, US authorities should have to use the playbooks that were used against Stasi- and KGB-backed terrorists in the 1970s/1980s and against Islamic terrorism in the last 2 decades.

There's an ongoing active shooter at Michigan State University. It's so heartbreaking to have to live like this because of insane people who'd rather cling to their guns than have any serious conversation about reducing or ending gun violence.

This is on a day when my university added gun screening at every entrance to the health system. :(
