    According to Basketball Reference, his nickname was Lamar Mundane. I guess he wasn't known for his charisma.

    A positive of this not being in the DnD is the variety of the opinions and not the usual suspects calling the rare dissenters names.

    So has there been many mass shootings where it ended with a civilian with a gun saving the day?

    Have you seen the profile of a average mass shooter?

    Most of them don't care about the ressistence they would face. Many of them WANT a shootout and to die in a blaze of 'glory'.

    Powerful black man has an differing opinion, gets called an idiot by liberals. So are liberals racists, bullies, or both?

    I'll say this: His threes spoke louder than words.

    For once in your life, right?

    If:
    I am not supposed to care what athletes think about politics, and
    I don't even care what Shaq thinks about basketball, then
    I sure don't want to hear his ideas on school shootings.

    I stopped paying attention somewhere around sandy hook so idk but it’s not hard to find. I don’t even listen or follow the news at all anymore so I know no details of any alleged shootings at all.

    None the less, to save the time and debates, it will go something like this.

    Conspiracy links get provided and then met with skepticism. Theorists get called paranoid and reaching at coincidences. Tinfoil jokes ensue followed by doubters being called blind.

    In the end nothing gets accomplished.

    Do you happen to understand the scope of how many different individuals in multiple agencies from law enforcement entities to social and medical professionals were involved in interacting with this incident?

    I'm assuming you aren't playing a shrixjand are actually genuine here. You know... The whole Poe's law ordeal.

    Honest question, sincerely: do you think the sandy hook survivor I know is lying about her experience? Do you think I'm lying about her existence?

    I will say this confidently: if you spend anytime in Danbury, Connecticut, as I have last summer, you will see the deep, lasting horrific truth and impact of that shooting. It's just simply not fake.

    Or an entire town, friend and friend's family totally fooled me.

    Or I am lying for no good reason.

    It's one of those 3 options.

    I did. It was a short post. I'm referring to your general notion that there are scripted or fake school shootings in general. You obviously hold this opinion.

    I just want to understand if you are suffering from the Dunning-Krugger effect and just don't understand the scope of how many different individuals from all walks of life are involved in these incidents.

    Cops at private schools, that's a good one. Boarding schools in particular have all kinds of off the books **** going on.

    Absolutely not and in no way

    Horribly true unfortunately

    Its completely plausible it’s an entirely different option. One which actually consisted of horrific death and shootings. False flag attack doesn’t mean completely false and didn’t happen.
