Discussion The reason school shootings happen has nothing to do with ‘violent video games’, ‘mental illness’, or ‘gun control’ - reasons inside

[NBAYoungBoy]

They happen because we live in an extremely hostile and competitive social and sexual environment for young people

There is no social support for a lot of young people, especially those who don’t have many or any friends

They are all alone and they feel that the world is against them

If you’re socially isolated at school, it’s extremely hard or impossible to make any friends, never less get a girlfriend

Kids are thrown into a free for all jungle (that doesn’t even occur in the wild), where the socially popular and/or physically large dominate the less popular and/or weaker and/or uglier

People who commit those crimes do them because they feel betrayed by society and that they have nothing to lose

The easiest way to end any and all shootings once and for all, is to ensure that everyone has friends, real social support, and that they have
a chance to meet a partner and have a family

Blacks actually have the highest murder rate and gun violence rate per capita, but they almost never commit these types of crimes (other than nyc subway guy), because in their communities, it’s easier for them to feel a sense of belonging, have friends, have a woman, etc

I’d say the competitive youth environment exists in most modern societies worldwide, but is amplified maybe 10 times in the United States compared to anywhere else

I hate the "mental health" people more than the "gun control" people. The gun control people are just plain retarded, but the mental health people are insidious and try to dismiss every single negative aspect of our lives by gaslighting us.

Might explain high school shootings. I chalk it up to rejection/bullying/loneliness. In pretty much every single case, the shooter doesn’t have a father or a girlfriend and was, more often than not, bullied. Shortsighted to piss your life away like that, but then with no real structure or positive things in your life, it’s easy to feel like the future is guaranteed to be shit.

Can’t explain elementary school shootings though. I don’t even know where to start in trying to figure out why someone would do that.

Saying that video games cause violence is beyond stupid. Like helmet-wearing drooling retard stupid. That’s like saying porn is the cause of sex.

Truth.

I've never felt bad for any of the school shootings.
