^^^ Maybe the Lord actually did.
God bless you always!!!

P.S. More shots could have been fired…but they weren’t.
I’ll admit it. I LOLed.
When they have an eyewitness who places the shooters’ age range within junior high years, why not? You seem to think that they just made a blind assumption and it paid off. Remember, there was a direct eyewitness.
Why? Would you rather every victim be a dead victim?
God bless you always!!!
Holly
I’d rather none of them be victims.
^^^ But if anyone has to be a victim, would you rather them be alive or dead?
God bless you and those who are still here always!!!
Holly
If they were twice as dead then I’d be twice as sad.
^^^ One victim is still here, aren’t they? If yes, then that shows that more shots could have been fired, but they were not.
God bless you always!!!
Holly
If your God had a hundredth of the power or benevolence ascribed to him, there’d be NO victims. Either he’s cruel or he’s weak or he doesn’t exist, and you’re frantically engaging in cargo-cult activity trying desperately to prove your shameful excuse for an existence has any meaning beyond your own failed attempts to create same by latching onto a fourth-rate country/rock singer with a fifth-rate lyricist.
Playing some kind of pansy game of “oh it COULD have been worse, PRAISE THE JEEBUS SO FUZZY HUGGY MUCH” just demeans you AND your God.
^^^ Only the Lord can explain why things happen and if you want to know badly enough, there is only way to make all of that happen. You go by his word, you make it to his place when your time down here is done, and then every question that you have ever had will finally be answered.
God bless you always!!!
Holly
And there it is. The “God works in mysterious ways” cop out.
Thanks for playing.
You’re not as bad as the shooter, but you’re damn near as emotionally harmful. Think about THAT, asshole–you’re taking someone else’s tragedy and using it as an excuse to chirrup about “The Lord” instead of extending some actual sympathy and concern.
You should pay more attention to Matthew 6:6 and less to your own egotistical need to prattle endlessly about the person who gave you the instructions in Matthew 6:6.
For that matter, as much as your unthinking bullshit drives people away from the church, maybe you should also take Luke 17:2 to heart.
God lets babies get shot in the face so we can, um, er…appreciate that not all babies get shot in the face! Praise Jaysus!
Like I said, if you make it to his place, all of your questions will be answered.
God bless you always!!!
Holly
Yep, you’re objectively a terrible Christian who does things Jesus specifically said not to do. I know what the answer to YOUR questions is going to be :):):):):):):):):):):):):)
Well, to be fair, God thought that baby had it coming.
There is no way that you can know what the answers to my questions are because you don’t know what the questions that I have are.
God bless you always!!!

There once was a poster named Holly
She believed in a God, by golly
She asserted as fact
Things decidedly whacked
O, but it made for such folly
You seem completely unaware of the scope of the issue in the US. The information you read here just refuses to sink in and be processed. Your Australian buy back took in about 600,000 guns in 1996 and another 50,000 hand guns in 2003.
The last time Congress attempted to estimate how many guns are in the US was in 2009, four years ago, and came up with an estimate of 310 Million guns. NICS background checks, which are only done at the time of sale, are still proceeding at a brisk pace, 2.5 Million just in January of this year. One month. And all of these checks represent probable sales.
All of the guns collected in Australia represent only a couple of weeks of gun sales in the US.
Reducing the number of guns in a given community as a solution? You mean like Chicago has done? That’s some funny stuff.
That’s the kind of nutty I was looking for.
But mental health issues can be addressed by mental health treatment, which we do a piss poor job of in this country.
