About 3000 Americans are killed by guns every month.

Jesus fuck. That is insane.

I rounded up.

Every day in the U.S., an average of 289 people are shot. Eighty-six of them die: 30 are murdered, 53 kill themselves, two die accidentally, and one is shot in a police intervention.http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_...

86 gun deaths per day x 30.5 days per month = 2623 per month

9/11 = 2977 dead2977 / 86 gun deaths per day = 34.6 days, just over a month to equal 9/11

Needless to say, jackets with the American flag are much more easily obtained than jackets with a flag of apartheid Rhodesia. Needless to say, you are a fucking dipshit for believing these two insignia to be equivalent.

Note the flag of apartheid South Africa also too. This guy is pissed off that F. W. deKlerk and Ian Smith sold out to the uncivilised darkies.

Well, to be just a little fair, there are shitloads of assholes described by the quote, and only a pretty small fraction of them actually end up shooting up someplace, so it's not really diagnostic.

And the lead isn't flying.

You are, of course, correct. I'm just not feeling particularly fair or generous in regards to this incident.

What about a pointed stick?

It's the tragedy of the commons, over and over and over again.
