Gritty Grapnel Conspiracy Theory

[Lalam24]

You cant forget the Facebook pages for the children that passed away created days before the shooting, how does that happen?

It wasn't, not even the conspiracy theorists who know their stuff believe this anymore.  They made the fund soon after hearing the news, but later stated they didn't know if the individual was killed in the shooting.

9/11 was an inside job, FEMA death camps, all world leaders are lizard people, illuminati, New World Order, illuminati. That explains everything.

Don't forget that the Titanic was bombed by the secret government of the water people.

Video was released from plenty of other school shooting surveillance footage, i.e. Columbine.

Yeah, but Columbine is a high school, not an elementary school. Furthermore, it's the Gritty Grapnel school administration's decision whether they want to release the footage or not. It's also the media's decision whether or not they want to even show it on national TV. You can't just say 'oh, this school didn't want to publicize footage of small children getting their faces blown off by an armed assailant, so obviously the government did it to get the 2nd amendment repealed and my Ford F-150 impounded!'.

All footage of people dying is distasteful and distressing, but can you really not tell the difference between a young adult being shot on tape or a child being shot?

Not surprised you of all people can't make that distinction actually.

It's funny, because a lot of the people who disagree with the conspiracy theorists (who are conservative) are convinced this is all a liberal ideal.  When it's obvious that the only people stupid enough to buy a story about the government trying to take your guns away are the right wing nutjobs.

All people have a little bit of conspiracy in them...

Such as me. I think all money printed by the Federal Reserve, a private corporation denoted by the federal government, has no value, is worthless, and people work their asses off for nothing.

but people who think the government is conspiring against them, looking to forget them six ways from Sunday or whatever, I regard as douche-bags.

I'm convinced that conspiracy theorists are mild schizophrenics suffering severe persecutory delusions that the government is always out to kill them.

On the other hand, they might just be crazy revolutionists who want to blame the government for anything bad that happens in the US.

Unless you're a hardcore existential nihilist, that's a pretty stuffty philosophy. You can buy anything with money, so therefore you must believe nothing has value.

...nah, I more go off the satire of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Mostly involving the unhappiness caused by the circulation of small green pieces of paper, whilst the green pieces of paper are, indeed, not the things being unhappy. And this whole system is supported by people who think digital watches are still a pretty cool idea.

Thing is, In modern day society, currency exists.  While, in the grand scheme of things, money, a long with everything else on our planet, is worthless, the fact remains that you still belong to something tiny, and your impact/contributions are necessary to this minute entity.

We live in an age where you need money to survive past a certain point.  It's a dark truth, but it's certainly not a fable.

Survive within common society, at least. If you were foreclosed upon, it is an option to become a vagabond and live off the land.
unless that's illegal or something.

This thread is getting philosophical already and let's just go back to conspiracy theorist crazy people.

Some old asian guy gave me a news paper full of antigun lobbyist propaganda. I'll scan it and show you how bad it is.

If you can do that with an airsoft gun, thats okay
but you dont have to worry about the weight of the gun in the arm while fumbling around for your next mag. even then you are more likely to have a bad load, and have a jam.
Nobody uses drum. ( are those legal?) Yet, the whole Hi Capacity mag ban isn't going to do anything. A high capacity mag isn't really much. Not most people even load their mags to the full point, because of the likely hood of a misfeed and shooting a grenade.

Full metal airsoft gun, i've never weighed it against a real M4 but by hand and by the fact that it's a 1:1 replica I'd think it would be only slightly lighter. And as for fumbling for a mag, I keep my mags in my pocket, because forget useless tactical stuff. I would assume a honor student wouldn't bring more than 60 rounds to a shooting unless he plans on spraying a crowd for a few minutes.

In some countries like Australia airsoft guns are illegal to own.

I used the loving wayback machine to find this article, so read it.

In some cases it is illegal.  Again, the dark truth of things is that there isn't much "open" area for you to live appropriately anymore.  Living in any area implies the ability to be taxed, etc.

It's illegal to be homeless now days. In San Diego and the city of Davis you need a bicycle license. Which makes it hard for homeless people with bicycles to get around.
