![]() Frankly, I'm shocked I haven't heard anything yet. But by the same token, I have not been listening to the news much at all today.

![]() After the glut of right-wing crisis actor conspiracies, and outright lying about and bullying of some of the Parkland shooting surviviors because they spoke up against gun violence, including unfortunately from some on this forum, conservatives getting offended over folks wanting better gun laws after yet another school shooting rings so hollow.

![]() depends on if something else comes along to take the top headline.

The AR15 was created in1960. These recent mass shooting sprees are 50 years after the fact. You speak of lies???? Blaming the gun is an outright LIE. Is it therefore not entirely possible the problem is in our modern culture? The way we raise our children and the lack of accountability for their actions? We currently argue about getting consent to change the diapers of an infant!!! Shouldn't we be training them to pee in the toilet? Assuming, of course, we can settle the confusion about "WHICH" bathroom to use.

Folks wanting better gun laws are like folks wanting less vehicle deaths. Fight shooters. Shoot them where they stand or slink or crawl. Those who propose "better gun laws" can move to Australia, the gun weenie paradise. |

https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...re-contagious/ esearchers at Arizona State University analyzed news reports of gun-related incidents from 1997 to 2013. They hypothesized that the rampages did not occur randomly over time but instead were clustered in patterns. The investigators applied a mathematical model and found that shootings that resulted in at least four deaths launched a period of contagion, marked by a heightened likelihood of more bloodshed, lasting an average of 13 days. Roughly 20 to 30 percent of all such violence took place in these windows. Previous studies have shown that suicide can be similarly contagious. In one recent example, researchers found a correlation between celebrity suicides, like that of Robin Williams, and an increase in suicidal thoughts in an online Reddit suicide watch group for people battling depression. “People are susceptible to information about these events, but the mechanism is less clear,” says Andres Gomez-Lievano, a co-author of the mass-shooting study, published in July in PLOS ONE. Where and when the news reports were published could have an effect on incidence, says Dan Romer, director of the Adolescent Communication Institute at the University of Pennsylvania, who was not involved with the study. It is important to note, he says, that “suicides will trigger others, so it makes sense that people who want to commit suicide while killing others could be influenced in the same way.” —Kat Long
