You don’t need to make a joke every time someone dies. Bit of context called for here; we're now up to 134 pages in this thread which catalogues incidents of mass gun crime in a country that steadfastly refuses to do anything to ameliorate the problem it seems everybody in the world who doesn't live there can clearly see it has, instead offering meaningless "thoughts and prayers" for the victims and their families as verbal sticking plasters like they're going to help. Then it happens again. And again. And no c**t ever does anything about it but dish out more facile "thoughts and prayers" I doubt anyone's taking the piss out of anyone affected - the real target is the country and the people who live there who as long as they're allowed to own guns seem content for something similar to happen every couple of weeks ad infinitum.

This. If people stopped making jokes, it would be a clear sign that everybody had been totally desensitised to it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
