No need to victim blame. Who builds a gun range that can’t safely contain the rounds be fired?

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

Yeah, the gun range seems like the place that should have the responsibility of ensuring people don't get shot.

[–] Drusas@fedia.io 14 points 1 month ago (2 children)

It reads like the shooters were not in a gun range. They were just shooting in a neighboring vacant lot.

Who builds a ballpark next to a lot that people could misuse as a shooting range? Ballparks and sports stadiums should not be built next to locations.

If that's true then the headline is clickbait bullshit. If it was an operating range then there should not have been a sporting complex built by it out of basic sense

It's not a star. It's a bullet hole

You can't leave less than one star.

This is insane. Gun ranges belong in grade schools.

This facility needs to be shut down," wrote one mother on Facebook. "Who builds a youth baseball complex next to gun ranges? I am terrified."

Gun brain rot is real. I can’t imagine seeing this article and thinking it’s the baseball field that’s the problem. Fucking Texas.

Hang on now cause you sound like the asshole who builds a house behind the local airport and then tries to get it shut down for the noise, and I think you're smarter than that.

[–] rowdy@piefed.social -1 points 1 month ago

Mate, first don’t put words in my mouth. Airplane noise and LITERAL FUCKING BULLETS are not the same and you know it. Second, if you stand by your take you’re the asshole and clearly not “smarter than that.”

I expect a range to have complete control over the weaponry and ammunition used there. If they don’t, then they should be shut down.
