You're fucking kidding, right?

It takes half of us the collective willpower of a herd of elephants not to bash you on here EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY because of your ignorant, simple minded, neanderthal stupidity.

John Bingham has consistently offered intelligent informed personal opinion on just about every topic Cambodia related, and otherwise, opposed to your knuckle-dragging inanity.

Fuck off!

Yep. His condescending attitude and attempt at slapstick humor is just his way of relieving himself of his own insecurities and paranoia while living it up in his $100 per month mansion in Kampot.

Projection is a psychological mechanism attributing character traits one finds distasteful in him or herself onto others. CaptainCanuck could get a job in a cinema such is the clarity of his.

Yeah, who doesn't like it when the good guys win?

Unlike the last however many shootings, this time the shooter was stopped before the police got there and stopped him, and he was only able to kill three people.

That's three people dead and an unknown number traumatized.

As I write this there are almost certainly more guys just like him buying an arsenal of weapons, body armor, and all the ammo they can carry specifically so they go out tomorrow, or next week, and try to get a better headcount than this guy before they're eventually stopped. If, as occasionally happens it's a member of the public that stops him instead of the police this will be seen as a success story, the system will have worked and he'll have 'only' killed X amount of people.

It's obviously great for the people selling the guns and for the politicians who get paid to enable it, but calling this any sort of success story for society seems like some broken mental gymnastics to me.

Well this definitely makes up for the 19 kids that were killed in the Uvalde school shooting. Everything is ok now.

A guy kills three (3) people and it’s a “good guys win” story. What kind of a society are we living in?

No no mate, you're not seeing the big picture here.

If tomorrow's shooters - let's throw a number out there and say 10 of them - aren't allowed to buy their guns that means good guys can't buy theirs either and there's a chance one (1) of those shooters will be shot by a good guy member of the public before he kills more than about 5 or 10 school kids. I think you'll find that works out very well for big business and think of all the future sales, high fives and yee haws the headline will bring.

Yep, the way some people rationalize situations like this really blows my mind. It defies logic when someone claims that it’s great that “ONLY THREE” people were killed in a shooting. Wonder how those three individuals family and friends feel about that.
