Time to bash Americans again

Edit: Oh, a downvote? Guess what, you played yourself. Now there are two. Don't worry about what happened to the planes.
I think the US military only attacks school when there students aren’t mainly white

For those unaware, an expat is an immigrant, but white and racist.
I'd personally argue against it. I've a British neighbour old-man who I walk with and he's very nice and world travelled. He even said that he chose to have the British retirement fund over my country's because that's where he paid taxes in.

Not an expat, an immigrant. I hate the term expat.
I've always assumed it depends on what your context is. If your perspective is the country that the immigrant is from, then they would be an expat. If you are in context of the other country they are an immigrant.
Ie
"My friend is an expat who went off to The Netherlands."
"My friend is an immigrant that came here from The USA." -
Who the fuck emigrates to Europe as a hardcore American fascist? Seriously? What the actual fuck?
Maybe they needed the more affordable healthcare?

Narrator: The problem wasn't the kids it was the US.
Clarification: venues getting shot up is a specifically elevated problem in the US (exacerbated by availability of guns, but that's not really the root of the problem). The thing is, the root of the problem (right-wing-leaning low-information constituents -- lumpenproletariat in left-wing speak -- suffering from precarity sometimes turn to violence) is being visited on European nations where two-party systems have taken root, and neoliberalism has set in. It's the old King Log vs. King Heron problem. We're seeing violence and counterviolence in the EU, just with less frequency and fewer guns, but it will catch up to them.

Because we don't have regular mass shootings in schools because we don't give every single person the money for a ticket to a gun show a gun and where we do, we legislate that they keep their gun in a gun safe. You know, like the rest of the world...or the USA in 1792.

It's not JUST the guns tbh. Everyone in Switzerland has a gun and they don't shoot eachother up. American society is fucked up on multiple different levels and the guns are just adding extra fuel and oxygen to a forest fire.

Imagine being racist and wanting to enjoy it instead of making it political. In the US it's culture war shit. In Europe you can go to a football match and throw bananas at the black players and it's chill. It's just easier to be casually racist in Europe because racism doesn't exist there, and if it does, it's not as bad as America.

Could be a military member stationed there. A guy I work with is one of those 4chan "libertarians" and had nothing but "horror stories" about living in Germany. Same guy is terrified to venture into the local major metropolitan area or take the light rail system.

we should call the us ones immigrants though. i think it would bother them a bit.

It's a dumb comparison, as their reason for owning guns is entirely different and tied to national defense, not self-defense and "freedom"
-

We need that, and healthcare that isn’t tied to our jobs, because that significantly entrenches the whole wage slavery thing.

Most British schools have bars to keep the kids in.

In fairness nobody ever died from a stray banana.

In Switzerland most people give their state issued gun away when they are not serving. So almost nobody has a gun at home.

I'd love to hear more

Half the country is illiterate.
whilst half of europe is at least literate in more than one language.
and no.. Texas and Massachusetts accents don't count. -
Hardened criminals have access to firearms but they tend to be expensive and difficult enough to get a hold of that you don't waste them on holding up a 7-11.
But angry children and adults who just want to hurt people generally don't.
It is why gun control works. It isn't about getting rid of ALL guns. It is about reducing their number so that people don't realize a year later that five of their ar-15s are missing
eh.. in my country firearms are illegal, yet somewhat available.
heavy explosives/fireworks and WW2 grenades on the other hand.. plentiful -

Ie
"My friend is an expat who went off to The Netherlands."
"My friend is an immigrant that came here from The USA."That's what I've always assumed too, but I only ever hear it in reference to other Americans, so I could absolutely believe that it's just some weird shit they use to separate themselves from immigrants.
