There was yet another major shooting at a University in the U.S. yesterday, I've lost count of the number of major shootings that've happened there in the past year. It's eternal.

America is so f*cked up, I really don't know what's happened to this country and it's people.  I guess they just brought it upon themselves with all the :censored: they've been doing, it's coming back to haunt them.  I want to go back to Europe.  :down:

It's funny reading the comments from people who've been to New York City a couple of times and think they know everything about the U.S. :D

Do you think this shooting will be like a talking points for debates in the near future for the presidential candidates though?

Its a shame really to see these types of shootings happening, I feel for the victim's family.

I think it's very unlikely, because major shootings in the U.S. are commonplace. I can't remember the exact figures but there are something like 400,000 crimes in the U.S. committed each year where a firearm is used. Deaths from the use of firearms in the U.S are responsible for roughly the loss of 30,000 lives each year. The majority of those deaths being as a result of homicide.

I really do have to laugh. Their government spends billions on a futile war effort of supposedly catching these bad guy terrorists, and in doing so creating thousands more, while at the same time you have American kids walking into schools and gunning people down right on their own doorstep. There's a sad and cold irony to that I think.

It really doesn't matter who wins the election because they're all a bunch of freaking corrupted crooks.  They'll probably invade Iran as soon as they get in the office.

Looking more and more like Obama will win it, and he is the most anti-Iraq guy out there of the major candidates. But Bush was running on a Humble, non-interventionalist foreign policy in 2000.

How can Americans fall for the Obama trick. Listen to him talk, all he ever says is "change", change is only good if it is for the better, he never says what he'll do. people over there fall for all that B.S about "hope" "inspire" , Go the back with inspiration and a feel good factor and see if that will pay the bills.

He wasn't there when America made the ridiculous decision to invade Iraq so he is lucky in that regard. I'd prefer him over McCain though as he wants to continue that war and probably accelerate the so called "war on terror" :angry:

:D

one of the quality quotes

Its likely that Obama would win the democratic place for presidency.

I hope he wins, rather than McCaine, I like Big Niall don't want the continuation of "war on terror" on Iraq (as a middle eastern, I've seen this as a failure).
