There is something clearly wrong with America, and no one can deny that. You don't see killing sprees on a regular basis anywhere else, and there has to be a reason. But it's not about guns or politics, or any one thing. Even if people would like to believe that to simply the real problem. Americans are just generally aggressive and angry towards everyone and about every subject. It doesn't make for a healthy society. Some people snap under the pressure and just start shooting.

Are you sure about that? I mean, would your opinion on America change if you were shown to be wrong wrt America being unique as far as killing sprees goes?
For every one in another country there's roughly 20 in the US. And things like school shootings are uniquely American.
It's not an attack against America, what i'm saying, it's just the facts. If people can't handle reality they shouldn't take it up with me.
If you take away the guns people will just use pipe bombs or machetes. The problem is with a society that creates angry, violent, people, and games or movies don't make them that way, they're just catering to what violent people who already exist want. And there's also plenty of people who enjoy violence as entertainment but that never crosses over into daily life.
Something about America causes it to have more angry people who lash out at the world around them. That is clear. If anyone can present another reason why that is i'll listen, but lets not pretend it's about access to guns, because guns are common in many other countries, and violent video games and movies are also distributed and popular in other countries, without this sort of trend. |

You're probably the only pro-America Canadian i've ever met, Reidle, and you also tend to share the same opinions as the average American and combat what average Canadians believe. Unusual. 
Here's a comprehensive list of every single school shooting which has ever occurred. Shouldn't have used the term 'uniquely', but as you can see where other countries have isoltaed incidents, the US has 6-10 times more of them. It's at epidemic proportions.

Robert Pickton murdered almost a hundred women in BC prof. Is there something wrong with Canadians?
He's a serial killer. Those are spread equally over the planet, showing no favoritism towards any country, or any reason to believe certain things about a country or society can encourage that.
And don't try and paint me as anti-America. That's another strange thing to see an alleged Canadian do. I'm simply pro-reality and anti-bull****.

You make me feel so dirty, sinking to your level. Not going to take part in it.
Everything you`ve said is a perfect example of how ****ed up things are in the US. You`re not interested in discussing this and coming to a rational conclusion, you just want to mock and taunt me, while twisting the issue. You are not the type to listen to reason, or change their mind in mid argument. Your fragile ego cannot handle someone else being right and you being wrong. So you live in a world of aggression and delusion.
The truth doesn`t ever come into your mind. What matters is you sounding right, and `winning`. I can barely say anything here without you jumping on me, and i avoid this section because of you.

Our primary schools are ****ty, this is not news.
Also, interestingly enough, that list is missing the other incident at Virginia Tech (probably because it wasn't very highly publicized) where someone just walked into the Cafeteria or Dining hall and just cut someone's head off. No, I'm not lying, but I'm not clear on the details either since it was hardly publicized at all.
Please do keep up.
Posted a comprehensive list of all school shootings.

Like it really matters whether someone uses a gun or a knife.
And look who's being rude now.
The list was missing virginia tech, like you said, i directed you to a more recent list you missed since. I`m a bad guy now.

As a Canadian, i`m sorry the Virginia Tech massacre happened, because there are no Americans with *********.
I have ********* and male horomones to spare. I`m terribly sorry all American males are cowards
