Sorry, but it’s your country that’s bloody killing the innocent people in the middle easr, so stfu

You forgot the Oregon mall shooting earlier this week.
You forgot Su Jung Health Sauna shooting in February, Seattle cafe shooting in May, and the Portland mall earlier this week.
you forgot the killings in C.O.D. black ops II.
It’s really stupid because people are killing everywhere although not all of them are on the news. It’s sad how people think killing is cool or neccessary. Will not be surprising if human extinction comes one day.
When are the Americans going to improve their gun laws how many more innocents have to murdered at another ones hands before serious action is taken
It doesn’t matter if they improve their gun laws. The people shooting didn’t follow the law about not killing people so why would they follow the gun laws?
