Breaking: 10 LA Middle School Students Shot In Mass Shooting

It spoke directly to the reason this thread exists. Drugs don't get the media coverage that guns do. That was the ENTIRE POINT of this thread. My post was about that point and that point exactly.

 

Nope. The read topic was about school mass shootings and school "overdoses". You're being disingenuous and clearly emotional. If you don't like what I have to post you can always ignore me. Ta ta

 

You don't have to keep talking into the mirror if you don't want to. Would you rather your child be shot to death or experience mild discomfort for a while? Easy choice for me. Not sure why you are pretending it is difficult.

 

Exactly.

 

The story in the OP is about pot edibles. How did you miss that?

 

You need to stop being so logical

 

No it wasn't, the post was about media coverage of drubs vs guns.

No wonder speaking to you is futile. You don't even know what this thread is about.

 

I heard there are edibles for that. I mean, I have edibles for that. I mean if your a cop you have to tell me!

 

No, it's about media coverage of guns vs drugs. How did you miss that?

The story was just support for the OP's main point.

It's like lefties only see what they want to see. You're desperately trying to stay away from the actual point all in the name of politics.

A little honesty from the left would be a nice change. It won't happen though. Politics above all else....the motto of the left.

 

it was about school kids eating edibles and experiencing mile to moderate distress vs school kids getting killed in mass shootings. And yes, that both aren't covered the same....gee I wonder why. You seem awfully confused.

 

How did you miss the OP?

The story in the OP involves kids experiencing mild discomfort. And he is (and you are) pretending that mild discomfort is just as serious as murder. It isn't.

Why do you assume that one has to be a lefty just to acknowledge objective facts?

I'm talking about the honest facts, which you are not willing to discuss.

 

No, I just have the ability to read the OP and understand what the point of it is. You clearly do not.

The OP makes it very clear this is about the media's coverage of drugs vs their coverage of guns.

Look, my original post on this was 100% correct and accurate. You don't like it so you've thrown a tantrum trying to discredit me.

Even with all that said. Even if you want to continue to claim that my post was off topic. It was 100% correct and accurate and you clearly hate that because it doesn't fit your political narrative.

 

Unfortunately, they lace other drugs with fentanyl including pot. However, the discussion was expanded into alcohol, I see no reason not to bring up other harmful drugs. The point being the media and the left talk endlessly about mass shootings while ignoring other issues which are equally or more severe.

 

Yet we are the ones actually talking about the actual content of the OP, which you refuse to discuss.

The OP is about whining that mild discomfort due to a drug wasn't given the same attention as murder.

Let's see if you can answer honestly: What happened to the 10 kids mentioned in the OP? Did they A) Die or B) Experience discomfort?

 

If you find a story about fentanyl laced pot, feel free to post it. The incident in the OP is not "equally or more severe." Read.

 

Yes imagine school mass shootings where people die is covered much more than kids experiencing mild to moderate distress due to cannabis. Imagine that.
You bringing up drug overdoses for people who choose to do drugs is not the topic. You can keep screaming that it is but we ain't buying it

 

It was almost exclusively about the medias coverage. Go back and reread it if you need to.

The story is about that. The opinion give by the thread create is not about that.

Could you point out where either of us have said it's just as serious as murder?

The weakness of an argument is magnified when you have to make **** up that isn't true.

I never said you "had to" be a lefty.

LOL

Except you are completely unwilling to discuss the entire point of the thread which was made clear in the OP.

 

I'll ask again and you will run away and hide again: what was the fate of the 10 kids in the OP? Did they die, or did they experience discomfort? If they had died, should it have gotten more attention than if they had just experienced discomfort?

 

Like I said. You can cry and whine all you want about my post being off topic ( I thoroughly disagree, but you are entitled to your opinion), but it was true and you clearly didn't like that.

 

I assume they'll be fine.

I assume it was only discomfort although I wasn't there.

I'm sure it would've gotten more attention.

Now, you're clearly not going to address my post in this thread that addresses the main point of the thread (media coverage of guns vs drugs).

So tuck tail and run.

 

So it would be a more serious topic if they had, instead, died?

And why should discomfort get as much attention as murder?

The OP says they should be treated the same.

There's a specific example given in the OP. Remember?

 

Incorrect again. I acknowledge people, who CHOOSE to use drugs and overdose is not plastered all over the news everyday. The OP wasn't about comparing which kills more people, drugs or guns. You DO know this right?
The OP was about why 10 kids with mild to moderate distress won't be covered as much as a mass school shooting. THAT is the issue in the OP. I just merely pointed out the obvious reason why those two situations are far different. Hint...mild to moderate distress vs death. Which one do you think is worse???

 

I never said the OP was about which kills more people. It was about media coverage, I've been crystal clear on that.

My point is still the same. The media coverage is vastly different on the two topics and it's all because of politics.

My post was correct and you clearly didn't like it. Get over it.

 

first of all the term "overdose" is wrong as no deaths were involved, and ten bellyaches is NOT a story, you say media blows shootings "out of proportion"? i wonder why" i suppose the media is hell bent on getting guns from those who wish to defend themselves from "tyrannical government" welcome to your minority

 

Hahahaha...politics? So you think mild to moderate distress should get the same coverage as kids and teachers getting killed in a school mass shooting? Wow....smfh.
I already acknowledged your post was correct for that particular subject. So for you to say I didn't like it is you being childish.
