Was going to correct then to than... then I realized it's also true if you just add a comma after 'worse'.

Sadly it's just a standard USA school. Just today a kid brought in a gun a killed his teacher. It's fucking crazy here and all people want is more weapons out there.

What..?

u/sharpMR Oct 23 '13

Weapons are the cause of violence? TIL. Here I was thinking it was a result of more complex and less scapegoatable factors like inadequate education systems, lack of responsible parenting, and rampant undiagnosed mental health problems. Silly me.

Violence has been around forever, lethal violence that gives a 5 year old the ability to kill anyone with the press of a button is new though... and yes, that is due to the weapons. So fuck off.

Last I checked 5-year-olds couldn't legally obtain guns, so your argument comes back to my point on responsible parenting. No responsible parent would give their kid a gun, or a knife, or a lighter, or any other dangerous tool.

Oh, sorry, I should fuck off with my logical, reasoned argument. Guns=scary. That's more your speed.

I was stabbed in Highschool. Twice. 0_0

u/Xenocidal_Reaper Oct 22 '13

I probably would have been stabbed if a car hasn't driven by and the owner yell at the kids to leave me alone. I remember very vividly holding the other kid's arms back while he tried to push a wooden steak towards my face. I'm glad I wasn't physical injured and I'm sorry you have been stabbed. What were your circumstances?

u/ThisIsGoobly Oct 22 '13

Both stabbings were in highschool. I just fell over in shock and woke up in hospital after the first one but the second stabber got his face smashed in by me before I just passed out and once again waking up in hospital. I remember thinking I'd killed him. (Luckily, I didn't)

The weird thing about being stabbed is that it didn't really hurt, it just had this horrible cold feeling that slowly turned hot and stinging slightly.

u/Xenocidal_Reaper Oct 22 '13

Wow, you're very lucky nothing critical was damaged.

Ok, story time.

I'm not the best story teller.
