BTW, you hear about this Hitler guy? Someone should really stop him!Ha ha! 4chan gonna 4chan! AMIRITE?
... Yes? They cheer every single anti-social that comes through the /b/-like boards. They cheer on when people talk about committing suicide. They cheer on when people plan bomb threats. They cheer on when people dox and harass random targets. It's not unique to 4chan, or to *chan boards, or even English boards. Remember Marcus Jannes and Flashback? Elliot Rodgers and PUAHate? So on so forth.Yeah, ok, they egged him on the day before and cheered as it happened and now 12 people are dead.
It's also not new.That kind of shit is where this kind of insecurity incubates and explodes like we have today.
Some context:It's also not new.
Mass shootings are being reported more, but aren't increasing in actual number, really.
Granted, the measurement ends in 2010, but it's not like the whole "huge surge in mass shootings" rhetoric is only 5 years old or less.
My knowledge of anon lingo is years out of date, but I'm assuming v& is like b&, but instead of getting banned from the messageboard, you're banned from life because the cops put you in a van?Police have already been contacted, it looks like. You can google "4chan 22808326" for relevant chatter. Edgy edgelords gonna edge. Hope they can v& the OP.
Aye. It's pretty old jargon. From what I can recall, it originated back when the FBI PARTY VAN meme was beginning to get stale... I'm guessing late 'naughts? Fuck I feel old.My knowledge of anon lingo is years out of date, but I'm assuming v& is like b&, but instead of getting banned from the messageboard, you're banned from life because the cops put you in a van?
Phew. I'm glad we're just steadily consistent in having this happen more than any other developed country.It's also not new.

‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where This Regularly HappensPhew. I'm glad we're just steadily consistent in having this happen more than any other developed country.
I'm pretty sure they've done that in the past already.If the 4chann story gets out, it will cause the media to refer to Anonymous as a terrorist organization.
Oh it's out, Megan McCain was all over it last night on her radio show.If the 4chann story gets out, it will cause the media to refer to Anonymous as a terrorist organization.
Pretty sure the people who were shot because they were Christian weren't too keen on getting killed, either.And now the imaginary war on christians will get a bump. Ugh.
But in the past they were branded terrorists for ordering pizza.I'm pretty sure they've done that in the past already.
CNN is shit.
Sheriff: "I will not name the shooter and give him the notoriety he wanted."
CNN Anchor: (without even a split second pause) "We do know the identity of the shooter, his name was..."
When 60 minutes debuted to huge ratings and made giant piles of cash.When exactly did real journalism in this country die? Was it the advent of CNN?
I tend to agree with this.I think it was the 24 hour news cycle.
I do not want my news providers censoring themselves at the direction of the police and the government.. I'm surprised, GasBandit, that you are even implying that CNN should do so. You're slippingCNN is shit.

Not that CNN even approaches the journalistic standards of FYI.
Would you limit free speech to protect against gun violence? Gassy doesn't even want to limit gun ownership for that cause.National News reporting on mass shootings increase the chances of whither mass shooting happening in the next two weeks

Free speech doesn't mean you aren't a shit for what you choose to say. And I never said to censor CNN, I said they were shit. But I know you're just straw manning my argument because you think it's funny to pull at my political strings.Would you limit free speech to protect against gun violence? Gassy doesn't even want to limit gun ownership for that cause.
Here's CNN's take (after they finally collected some numbers):President Obama said:I would ask news organizations, because I won’t put these facts forward — have news organizations tally up the number of Americans who’ve been killed through terrorist attacks in the last decade, and the number of Americans who’ve been killed by gun violence, and post those side by side on your news reports.
