You think a higher murder rate is better?

I guess the murder rate is high considering there isn't much happening. although owning a gun in the Bahamas doesn't make a difference to the murder rate of that region. it is more in terms of law and order and security issues. a free for all old texan society wouldn't really deter nor improve anything.

context kinda matters
on another note, because the Bahamas has won a gold medal or two in the last couple summer Olympics, we have won each of the last couple on a per capita basis

we’re small, very small.. singular murders are going to count a little more (hence the Olympics point)
but obviously we’re a tourism destination
we do have crime and have our other issues, of course.. but like pretty much everywhere there are areas everyone knows to avoid
but if a school, mall, hotel or something of that nature happens, changes are coming.. political parties are going face consequences for inaction

is sandy hook elementary not a school?
of being shot or having someone I care about shot, seems like a healthy fear

When people develop such a strong attachment to a single issue that is foundational to a certain ideology, you can be sure that other parts of that ideology will start to seep in

Those senseless shootings would drop in number of events and in effectiveness.
If the kind of gun ownership we practice here (minimal checks, minimal training, minimal restrictions) is a net negative for society, the argument that we shouldn't do anything about it because there are already so many in circulation makes no sense.
And it's interesting that the guy with an entire arsenal is telling those who go everywhere they want without guns that they're scared. Y'all need to reduce the intake in "news" that focus on random crime reports.

You should go back. Safety first.
1 child dying in school due to gun violence is 1 too many.
There isn't an acceptable number for that.

It's sad that it's so specific to American culture. Citizens of a wealthy, first world country just randomly killing other innocent civilians en masse. Just doesn't make any type of sense

it is. but I guess some people love their guns more than children. I wouldn't be surprised. some people prefer their pets as children over actual children.school children dying is horrific

People don’t want to fight anymore and live to see another day. A lot of cowards have guns.

People here have material wealth, but mentally and internally they are just shallow, hollow and don’t care about anyone

it's a crazy society now. I remember when politicians stood up for actual righteousness and patriotism. nowadays, it's a free for all and think and do what they think personally is right. no actual morals or blueprint as guidance.It's sad that it's so specific to American culture. Citizens of a wealthy, first world country just randomly killing other innocent civilians en masse. Just doesn't make any type of sense

2 people arrested for this so far.
1 appearing in court today I believe
His brother in the hospital somehow but also being arrested once he recovers / discharged.
Illegal handgun found at the scene, additional handgun found at the first suspects home.
Second dude was found “injured at the scene with a machine gun”
Interested to see how this develops.

Getting worse.
Older brother is being charged so far as a convict in possession of a loaded firearm. (Shouldn’t have had it)
Younger brother who is in the hospital was doing 10 years for a few things including aggravated assault against his gf, Sac DA specifically requested he NOT be let out early. He got let out early anyway.. and he posted a vid of him with a handgun hours before the shooting.
F***** hell.
