Well that's just a statistical certainty

And malls, and churches, and hotels...

...the streets, by cops and ICE and republicans.

And your home when you have an argument about guns...

Yet somehow Australia still has the reputation of being the country where everything can and will kill you.

[–] ttyybb@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

In Australia everything can kill you. In America it's mostly guns.

"you'll get a higher-paying career if you get a degree"

"counterpoint, you won't if you are murdered while trying"

"well yeah but-"

Clearly ~~progressive~~ terrorist behavior. The FBI is en route.

Practice makes perfect?

When I was in high school in the 80's, a kid got removed from school for bringing an axe in to kill people with.

Simpler times.

Meanwhile, in the early mid '90s, I brought a backpack full of self made blasting caps, det cord, and a detonator to high school and got off with an ISS for a week. Admittedly, it was unintentional, and I wasn't trying to kill anyone.

[–] ThunderQueen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

One time there were fire crackers on the sidwalk near where me and some other students were smoking and when admin came to break us up they found them and gave us all ISS for 3 days because nobody knew whose they were

Congratulations! Now put that shit back on! We are going to war!

We need more measles cases so that school shootings make up a smaller proportion of childhood deaths

I remember graduating school in the 90's and thinking "Thank God I don't have to die here."

I graduated in the '80s. Most of the deaths were due to steering column impalements. Kids mostly drove cars from the '70s and '60s that didn't have the refinement of the collapsing steering column, and almost nobody wore their seat belts. And drunk driving was still harmless fun.

I think I'd rather just keep mine on.

[–] Waraugh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I remember growing up having my 12 gauge shotgun and 7MM rifle in the gun rack of my truck. Nothing chambered but they were loaded with extra ammo in the glove box. Sometimes we’d go hunting before or after school so we just kept the stuff with us. Unlocked, keys left in the ignition. To top it off I was legally driving to school and work at 14 with my school permit so I wasn’t even 16 yet.

I really miss the society I grew up knowing, things are so fucked these days.

Shit, I don’t know, I’m not sure I’m intelligent enough to answer that but I think I’d need to put a lot of time analyzing things. All of us kids would hang out at the co-op, park, or miniature park stuffed between two stores on Main Street, like every evening/night. I’d get off work washing dishes and walk across the street and just hang out with whoever was there. Like nobody needed to be your friend or whatever to hang out and shoot the shit before going home. Everyone just accepted folks and would watch out for each other shit. The worst we ever did back then was walk down Main Street (it had middle of the road parking in addition to store front pull in parking) at night and open up all the cars to turn their radio volume knob’s up to Max so when folks left the bar to turn their car on the radio was playing whatever station on full blast.

I don’t know, just simpler times I feel like. Folks growing up these days are having to deal with so much extra shit, I don’t think a lot of kids are getting to enjoy being kids anymore and it’s gotta be fucking with their heads.

Keep thinking. Look around when you are out in public see if you notice anything .

And here I thought that boss fight where he temporarily lifted up his protection breifly wasnt realistic.

... But really I'd keep the armor. Kent states trying to make a comeback.

... And then after that there's ICE.

... And then ...

[–] Rooster326@programming.dev 0 points 1 month ago (1 children)

After that there's ICE

He says. As if school children aren't already a primary target...

[–] yggstyle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Head pedo in charge is really uh... F*cking kids any way he can. Bombs, imprisonment, and so much more.

Edit: Really wanted to spoiler that last part but the editor hates me.

shish mish

My favorite southern Slavic word! It means “bat” and it’s just darn adorable.

[–] AffineConnection@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

There was a shooting at my old high school. My sister was there at the time.

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Was she also there after the time?

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

she was there, and there, and some over there too.

[–] NABDad@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Damnit, I didn't need another reason to go straight to hell, and then you made me laugh at that.

[–] bleistift2@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

Just befriend a paramedic or a firefighter or some other of the sort that works next to a train line. You’ll hear that joke quite often and get used to it.

[–] AffineConnection@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It was during her senior year.

[–] Zwiebel@feddit.org 1 points 1 month ago

What's her K/D?

[–] Sunsofold@lemmings.world 3 points 1 month ago

Haha, as if they could afford armor.

[–] huquad@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Bold of you to assume you survived
