RE: Vegan Activists Who Break the Mould 😍 / Reflections on the YouTube Shooting 💔

in #vegan7 years ago

Wow I had no idea about that Youtube shooting but it would sure be interesting to see what happens with the gun control debate when, as you said, colored people are starting to shoot down workplaces dominated by white people.
I know nothing about the shooting since I don't watch the news and any kind of shooting is horrible but I still wonder what it takes for people and the goverment in the U.S to wake up about the gun regulations.
Great post my friend, you just made my brain work for a while :)

Hi @nicoleslife. 😊 Well, I'm not the one who made that point about a woman from an ethnic minority doing this within a workplace dominated by white people – Christopher Sebastian said that – but yes, it will be interesting to see if people are a little more inclined to consider gun control when it isn't a white man committing the violence (which is what usually happens in these cases 😔). This incident was awful in so many ways – I'm sure that woman must have had some serious problems in her life that drove her to lash out in the way that she did. That doesn't excuse her actions at all, of course, but the whole situation is just very sad.

Oh sorry my mistake. I will probably follow this incident a little bit more active now that you have open my eyes for it.
Well yes, no one would do this without several things going wrong. And it's really sad that these things continue to happen. Sadly I think we will only see more of it before we see a solution.
