What really bugs me about this story is CBS buried it, 2/3rds of the way down the page.

Otherwise, Irma Irma Irma Bannon Bannon Bannon...

1. We're all becoming desensitized to this...

Who would of thought that could happen?

But, when it's everyday, yeah, a person gets to a point where you just shake your head...

Too many guns out there.

8. Yep, gun crazy is putting it mildly

Here's an updated article - 7 dead, 2 critically wounded. The home is very near my office location and Plano is one of the most affluent cities in the country. All the more puzzling this happened there.

12. "All the more puzzling this happened there."

Not really because the more guns that are "out there" the more
gun violence you will see. More guns = more shootings. The idea that
by owning a gun you are protecting yourself or your family is pure
nonsense if you look @ the stats.

BTW the NRA with their boot licks in congress have for years blocked the
release of gun shooting stats vs the # of guns in a given population studies.


BTW I have hunted and owned guns for years too.

This is the home where Adam Lanza lived with his mother Nancy at the time he perpetrated the slaughter of innocents:

3. More died in one shooting

than all US victims of the hurricane being covered 24 hrs a day. This is the NRA's America.

5. Which hurricane?

We lost 40 Texans in the floods. Caused by a hurricane.

13. Is Harvey being covered 24 hours a day currently?

I think it is pretty clear what hurricane the poster was referring to.

[oneshooter]

14. The aftermath is. A lot of people

A lot of people are still hurting from it. And will be for quite a while yet.

15. Oneshooter....I've been very concerned about Houston.

Having trouble finding good info on property damage, loss of life and injury, environmental issues, and plans looking forward. Just lots of bits and pieces scattered around the web.

Can you recommend one or two good sites that have comprehensive info for the general public on Houston and perhaps other affected areas of Texas? Perhaps an information clearing house?

TIA

[oneshooter]

18. Not really.

I ether watch local news or I am out in it.

[KY_EnviroGuy]

19. Thank you, and peace be with you.

Misery from a flood seems to never end. Please hug a broken soul for a Kentucky family.

17. No doubt. No one is disrespecting the damage from Harvey, but it was quite clear

which hurricane the person you replied to was talking about.

[obamanut2012]

21. Except there are wrong about Irma's death toll

I just lived through it, and they are wrong.

[Thor_MN]

23. Which is now known. It wasn't at the time of the post.

At the time of the post we are talking about, as far as I know, there were no reported deaths from Irma.

[obamanut2012]

20. wrong

6. I can see the new NRA commercial...

"Don't forget to be armed to the teeth if you're going to a friends house to watch the game. Some upright, citizen gun owner may just decide to exercise his 2A rights there."

Sickening

7. It's been awhile without a mass shooting

For some reason it calmed down after Asshole was inaugurated.

Unless it's late in the day on football day or a family holiday -- then pew pew pew.

I have a buddy who is an ER Doc. He dreads Super Bowl Sunday and thanksgiving nights.

We have the most loathsome culture in the civilized world....if we can even still be considered to be part of the civilized world, that is.
