Or like the Las Vegas mass shooting. When was that exactly? ~5 years ago? All these shootings blend together in my mind even though that one had ~900 people injured.
I remember the Las Vegas shooting very well because the concert was sponsored by American Express and I worked as a concierge for them at the time
Sold many a platinum cardholder tickets to that event
Call me crazy but I think events like those deserve yearly commemorations. But bipartisan views on American exceptionalism hold that we must only rarely mention them again if ever. If we spend too much time thinking about mass shootings and tragedy - we might question the exceptionalism. And we mustn’t do that. It’s a scared conception.
They can’t let something like that take off, or else we’d do nothing but commemorate past atrocities/tragedies. There would be multiple commemorations every day, which might make people realize that we don’t have to live like this.
You can tell I am a true USAan because I have multiple stories about being both directly and tangentially involved in horrible tragedies
I hate that 9/11 is the big
never forgetmoment, when my life has been a never-ending stream of calamitieshope you are taking care of yourself comrade, it sounds like you’ve been exposed to a lot of psychic radiation
Not to worry, I see a therapist once a month
I just tend to get morose during these cold winter months
Partially inspired by https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjfrJzdx7DA, we could set up twin pre-memorial sites (physical and webpages) for the people who will be shot in the US in September 2035 and for people who will be killed in car crashes in the US in September 2035. Leave room for 3000 pictures/bios at each. Hold a ceremony every October. Would the hate increase or decrease after they both inevitably fill up?
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
That is still extremely bizarre. Had the exact same energy as Epstein the way the media just swept it under the rug all of a sudden
Turns out I orchestrated the entire thing to get people to stop using the concierge service
Unfortunately, in the case of the Vegas shooting, there was nothing they could uncover. The shooter left no notes, no manifesto, no background events, and nothing on his computer that could point to any motive. Like obviously he cracked for a reason, but the cops couldn’t find anything as to why
Mandalay Bay guy was 2017, so 7 years ago
