Yeah, shooter here, stabber there... But nobody writes about their reasoning. Not so clickbaity? Or nobody can actually figure out why?

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 28 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

Well when you put a stigma on mental health and you cause a lot of misery with your policies this will happen. Add in climate people are more aggressive when they are hot, and financial uncertainty this is a recipe for disaster.

Add in lead exposure to that list as well

Relevant video on the effects of lead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vm_1XLKtGpI

Yeah but that mostly the Baby boomers issue. Explains a lot of what's wrong with them. We now have forever chemicals and microplastics for rest of us.

[–] NarrativeBear@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Hahaha yup, at least the microplastics will preserve us and help us live longer lives like Ken and Barbie. Though I guess the forever chemicals act as a reverse uno card.

Especially in our testicles. Imagine Indiana Jones where every skeleton just has a Lego ballsack.

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 5 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Great, well it definitely going effect birth rates I am sure. I mean how long before that shit makes men sterile?

[–] gdog05@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

I don't think we yet have any idea on that. But I'm guessing it's not going to do us any favors.

And COVID and___

Well, test your water…. You might be unhappy with the lead content.

Not to mention no universal healthcare for meds or doctors, and antiquated laws making it legally impossible for parents to help kids once they turn 18. If they have profound mental health disorders or addiction problems, they are fucked.

So many stories of people caring for their child with terrible health problems/addiction, only for them to fall through the cracks once they turn 18 and can't care for themselves. :(

[–] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago

Oh man. This point hits home. Imagine being desperate enough to commit a crime because you are unable to afford healthcare and inmates have better programs than the general population.

You can keep 'em on your medical insurance till they're like 25 now.

Thanks Obama

My guess is the suspect in custody is a white (likely Christian) male.

[–] Ydna@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

You can see him in the parking lot video. The guy looks EXTREMELY disheveled. I'd be giving him a real wide berth if I were in a store with him.

[–] faizalr@fedia.io 11 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

What is the motive behind this?

Times are getting tough for sure.

[–] altphoto@lemmy.today 0 points 4 hours ago

The guy seems very proactive. 11 people? Where they sleeping? Maybe they're all waiting in line and the guy jumped on a rolling cart. Then with a swift arcade style motion of the arm....stabby stab stab!...11 people stabbed.

Wouldn't each person scream like a deranged goat? So you would hear an incoming cart (at which point I would turn around to see) then aaah! Eeeh! Ouch! Whataaaah! Jada Jada Jada... You're screaming.

How many were stabbed at walmart and how many at man in custody? (My brain had way too much trouble with this headline for a few seconds).
