Comment on Why don't we hear more about the 2017 Las Vegas shooting? It was the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history, we never found a motive, and it seems no one ever mentions it.

  Gotta appreciate how I Googled that phrase, clicked on the first YouTube link, and the very first comment was along the lines of “US conservatives reacting to mass shootings”

  Ah c’mon, give them credit where it’s due. They didn’t try nothing - thoughts and prayers were tried in abundance.

    Hot take: “thoughts and prayers” and “doing nothing” are the exact same thing

        I was kind of adding on top of it. Didn’t think I needed to say it either, but here we are lol.

    Are they even doing that tho? Like they talk about it a lot, but because these are children we send to slaughter and watch their teachers bleed out while terrified, I demand to see these thoughts and prayers as long as they are preferred in a way that implies moral support. Appalling.
