Four Delaware (Lenape) American Indians entered the schoolhouse near present-day Greencastle, Pennsylvania, and shot and killed schoolmaster Enoch Brown and nine children (reports vary). Only two children survived.

calfoxwc Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 back in 1965: August 1, 1966 Austin, Texas 17 31 University of Texas massacre: 25-year-old engineering student, Charles Whitman, got onto the observation deck at the University of Texas-Austin, from where he killed seventeen people and wounded thirty-one during a 96-minute shooting rampage. He had earlier murdered his wife and mother at their homes.[133][134][135] It was the deadliest shooting on a U.S. college campus until the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007. Seems that social media is a gigantic immediate "fame" effect on mentially disturbed murderers, and the msm is the icing on the cake. Of course, I suppose social media makes some mentally ill feel like the whole world is their enemy. or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I think you are, but it never works, so... That site references many school shootings of one form or another, from way, way back. The question is, why? because there are defenseless possible future victims there. That is why. And they used weapons other than guns back then. Other than guns happens today too. So, another question is, why? It isn't guns. Here is a great read. Read it, for once, woody. ********************************************************* https://www.investors.com/politics/editorials/sorry-despite-gun-control-advocates-claims-u-s-isnt-the-worst-country-for-mass-shootings/ "("But the U.S. has a population four times greater than Germany's and five times the U.K.'s, so on a per-capita basis the U.S. ranks low in comparison — actually, those two countries would have had a frequency of attacks 1.96 (Germany) and 2.46 (UK) times higher." Yes, the U.S. rate is still high, and nothing to be proud of. But it's not the highest in the developed world. Not by a long shot. Yet, some today propose banning rifles, in particular AR-15s, because they've been used in a number of mass killings. It's important to note however that, according to FBI crime data cited this week by the Daily Caller, deaths by knives in the U.S. outnumber deaths by rifles by five to 1: In 2016, 1,604 people were killed by knives and other cutting instruments, while 374 were killed by rifles. So is it not fair to ask: If we're banning rifles, why not knives, too? The point is, guns aren't the problem; deranged killers that grow up in broken families often without positive male role models in their lives are the problem. So are political and religious extremists, in particular Islamists. If these people didn't have guns, they would find some other means to do the job. Bombs are illegal in both the U.S. and Europe. Yet Europe loses far more people to bombings than the U.S. Doesn't that make them more violent?)" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MLD Woody Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Sigh The conclusion in that article comes from the Crime Prevention Research Center, which, like every other one of these you reference, is a right wing organization parading around as an academic one. The founder, John Lott, is a economist and right wing persona that champions the pro gun movement. He's written pro gun books, is a columnist on Fox, and has been accused of taking funding from the NRA. He admitted to posing as one of his past students online to defend his own work and praise himself as a professor. Many have claimed he faked a survey to produce hus favorable data, a survey he can no longer produce the data from. He's claimed the CPRC had an article published in a perr reviewed journal that was in fact rejected. His own data disproves his claim Europe and the US have the same mass shooting rate. Actual experts in the field come up with numbers that show the US is much worse. There are disagreements for what he does and doesn't count as a mass shooting, which he defines carefully to get the best results. Etc etc etc So a right wing group, led by afake expert, that is repeatedly proven wrong by the actual academics and experts in the field. Like I said, basically par for the course.

Let me guess...Think Progress. You got that shitt straight out of Think Progress right Woodley? Defamation suit On April 10, 2006, John Lott filed suit[48] for defamation against Steven Levitt and HarperCollins Publishers over the book Freakonomics and against Levitt over a series of emails to John McCall. In the book Freakonomics, Levitt and coauthor Stephen J. Dubner claimed that the results of Lott's research in More Guns, Less Crime had not been replicated by other academics. In the emails to economist John McCall, who had pointed to a number of papers in different academic publications that had replicated Lott's work, Levitt wrote that the work by several authors supporting Lott in a special 2001 issue of the Journal of Law and Economics had not been peer reviewed, Lott had paid the University of Chicago Press to publish the papers, and that papers with results opposite of Lott's had been blocked from publication in that issue.[49] A federal judge found that Levitt's replication claim in Freakonomics was not defamation but found merit in Lott's complaint over the email claims.[50] Levitt settled the second defamation claim by admitting in a letter to John McCall that he himself was a peer reviewer in the 2001 issue of the Journal of Law and Economics, that Lott had not engaged in bribery (paying for extra costs of printing and postage for a conference issue is customary), and that he knew that "scholars with varying opinions" (including Levitt himself) had been invited to participate.[51][52] The Chronicle of Higher Education characterized Levitt's letter as offering "a doozy of a concession."[53][/B] The dismissal of the first half of Lott's suit was unanimously upheld by The United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit on February 11, 2009.[54] Charges that gun makers or the NRA have paid for Lott's research In 1996 when Lott's research first received media attention, Charles Schumer wrote in the Wall Street Journal: "The Associated Press reports that Prof. Lott's fellowship at the University of Chicago is funded by the Olin Foundation, which is 'associated with the Olin Corporation,' one of the nation's largest gun manufacturers. Maybe that's a coincidence, too. But it's also a fact."[55]Olin Foundation head William E. Simon strongly denied Schumer's claims in a reply letter in which he stated that: Olin Foundation was funded by the personal estate of the late John M. Olin independently of Olin Corp. Like all candidates, Lott was selected to receive his Olin Fellowship by the faculty of the university, not by Olin Foundation and certainly not by Olin Corp.[56][57] In a debate on Piers Morgan Tonight on July 23, 2012, Harvard Law School Professor Alan Dershowitz claimed: "This is junk science at its worst. Paid for and financed by the National Rifle Association." Lott countered: "The NRA hasn't paid for my research." Dershowitz continued: "Your conclusions are paid for and financed—The National Rifle Association—only funds research that will lead to these conclusions."[58][59] Separately both Lott and the NRA have denied NRA funding of Lott's research So Woodley, Lotts research paid for by the NRA just because Think Progress and Dershowitz says so?...

MLD Woody Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Cal, I didn't lie. The main point was the mass shooting rate. Anything from the CPRC is trash for all of the reasons I just explained. If the FBI says knives and cutting objects kill more than rifles then so be it. It has been explained to death on here why guns aren't knives, cars aren't knives, etc. If this has to be done every time then why bother. I'm actually a little frustrated in myself that I took the bait and responded to your nonsense. It's a waste of time to argue with with a blnded, biased donkey and yet here I am trying to do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
