Okay. Seriously out of all people to call out a flame war, is Distorted? I'm sorry, but you are
very well known for contributing to flames.
This type of behavior on a thread that's about dealing with grief is unacceptable of course, but it's unacceptable
anywhere else in the word. Yelling insults obviously isn't going to get anywhere, and will just make both parties at guilt. But those who've called out the flamewars have both contributed to flame wars in the past, and are antagonizing those flaming in this thread,
which is contributing to the flame itself.
Besides the flame war, there
is an analysis going on. People are either trying to figure out why the **** these types of things happen. Whether bringing evidence to spite a claim, or literally theorizing on something.
Now you can say it's ****ty to do such a thing during the grief of a death, but deaths are ****ty
regardless. Where we stand right now is someone was murdered. This isn't the first murder
and I know we can all agree it won't be the last. This is a ****ed up situation. Gun debate or not.
We can't be ignorant about the situation. Regardless if you think gun control will solve it or not. And the [relatively]
best time to discuss such a morbid subject is after someone innocent died. Because we know it's going to happen again, so we can't ignore it claiming it's disrespectful. Call me an asshole for thinking this, but I care a hell of a lot more for the living than for the dead, because the dead are already dead. All we can do is grieve, and find out where we ****ed up, so we can protect those still alive.
I didn't know who Christina Grimmie is before her death. I had little to no interest in her subculture. The only thing that ****ing matters is an innocent died. Why the **** does no one seem to want to talk about preventing more innocents from dying? How long do we have to wait until it's no longer socially taboo? People stop caring about things that aren't relevant, so we
need to have this hard conversation while it still
is relevant.
Now you may think there
is no way to prevent these kinds of things, so my point isn't valid because there's no reason to talk about it. But that requires an analysis itself. You can't come to a conclusion without studying what's at hand. There
is no avoiding this unless you want more innocent deaths.
This rant isn't me trying to explain a way to prevent these shootings, but instead trying to justify a discussion/fight
Edit: didn't see this post until now

Totally not what I'm saying. I'm saying that if someone makes a memorial thread for someone you shouldn't blow it up with garbage about gun laws, make your own damn thread if you want to talk about that ****. Straight up disrespectful

We aren't straight up arguing about it at her funeral, but the goal here is to find out ways to stop innocents from dying. If I die by a gun, you guys better ****in' find a way to not let the same happen to another person. Call me disrespectful but I guess I just have a different opinion on this.
