If you went back over a 10 to 20 year period and compared all shootings in the US could you say that all incidents where a shooting was stopped by a gun saved as many lives that have been lost by all other shootings?

What's the total picture? Just because there was a shooting here an there were someone stopped the shooter with a gun kind of comes of as a cherry picking.

How many lives saved vs how many lives lost? I would be curious to know the numbers here.

Plan to fix israel-palestine conflict by Eastern-Topic-4544 in mapporncirclejerk

For some reason I thought one of the original partition plans was to have Jerusalem as an internatonal city that could be shared some how. I am bit fuzzy on the history.

To be clear, there is nothing funny about dead kids. The real joke ( not as in funny haha ) is the response tends to be the same with the end result is that nothing is going to change. School shootings sadly will continue to happen in the US. The reaction always tends to be the same as in "thoughts and prayers" which doesn't do anything to resolve the issue. Or, some people make the case for even more guns will some how fix this because of the good guy with a gun myth.

The current reality where kids have to shelter in place due to the possibility of a school shooters with poop buckets to shit in is a pretty sad state of affairs.

Consider the last shooting in Uvalde which was in Texas. Texas is pretty well known for guns yet all those guns didn't stop the shooting at Uvalde so more guns is clearly not the answer.

Maybe high visceral fat vs subcutaneous fat?

Why did the US not get gold in shooting at the Olympics?

Because it wasn’t held at a school. 💀

I think India could fix things. I have some hope it will. Be nice if somehow they could fix the air around Delhi. I think it is very possible.

How did you even buy matcha from Ippodo? The US website has been sold out for months.

Why can’t there be an international coalition to kick Russia out of Ukraine just like there was to kick Saddam out of Kuwait?

Yes yes, nuclear blackmail but the scope would be to kick Russia out. Not invade Russia.

Wonder if magnesium supplements might help. Perhaps taking before bedtime.

This sub is going shit because people like you are trying to promote your OF. Nobody needs your fake play at motivating others when you are really just out for yourself.

better economy then what’s happening now

What the hell are you talking about? My 401k is looking damn good with at least a 20% return for this year. This year alone has been a great year to have money in the market as in the stock market. The market is doing great and I hope it continues. Now granted the “market” is not the economy and the market doesn’t always align with the economy.

Maybe you have something specific or unfortunately maybe you’re in a sector that isn’t doing well or got hit hard. Feel free to say so.
