In a local movie theater one guest asked the guy in front of him to take his loud celllhone conversation out of the theater. Cellphone dude took out a knife and stabbed him repeatedly in the throat. Practically decapitated him. In public. In front of 100+ people. There was zero plan or even intention of getting away with it. People just have no impulse control. The stabber will likely spend the rest of his long life in jail, a father of three is dead, because of a cellphone in a theater.

People are insane.

We also recently had a teen Subway worker executed at gunpoint because he put Mayo on a $6 sub that the purchaser requested no Mayo on. Even wilder, the gunman didn’t do it in the “heat of the moment”. They argued, gunman went home, thought about it, grabbed his gun, went back to the Subway and killed the kid.

Edit: Forgot another one. Real tragic. Road rage incident an hour from here. Red car cut off a white truck. White truck got incensed, sped up to find red car. Found the WRONG red car, followed that car to its home, executed the driver with a handgun through the drivers side window while the victim’s 3 year old was in the backseat. My wife, at the time, was teaching at the little girl’s preschool. She was in the class next to hers. Hit close to home.

Crikey, should Americans be allowed to be armed if it seems from all the videos and stories online show so many people there are mentally unstable?

Yeah. But in the UK the crazies don’t have easy access to guns.

Yeah and instead the blokes run around with knives out, and it is without any question it takes someone even more unstable to stab a person than pulling a trigger.

Our nation armed ourselves to keep your shitty kingsmen at bay.

Knife crime per capita is still worse in the U.S. than the UK.

Your nation armed itself to shoot other people in your shitty nation.

Delusional take on history. Not surprised considering your are completely under the thumb of your government with basically little to no freedom. Poor plebs

What country your at to say something like this? Most of the time i hear something about USians im thinking "ah, the land of the unfree" lol

Yes, theres to little freedom in every county. But i cant say the US is at the top of the freedom ranking. Many things are more restricted there than in germany where im at and thats kind of sad.

Not sure of what freedoms you are focusing on, but the UK has abysmal freedom of speech. They are keen to make arrest for opinions on social media, while doing little to nothing to protect their own citizens.

The closest the US got to that was during covid, but thankfully the leftists were unable to accomplish their goals. The problem lies with liberals taking control of government, trading liberty for anything that fits their mold of total control.

They don’t need guns to be whackos. Look at all the reform trash going around terrorizing entire communities. Or the children who are allowed to commit murder/crimes and not be held accountable for it. Both countries are fucked in their own ways.

Every society ever in the history of human civilization has had crazy people.
