What does the gunman having a fight with mom over Wi-Fi has to do with what he did to a random school that he does not even go to?

Is this, like, a rhetorical question?

No, but I wonder why would news sources like this bring up something as insignificant as "Wi-fi"(even when the motive in question is still unknown) when talking about a school shooting that killed 19 students?

Because it's why he shot his grandmother. As near as I can tell. The police work seems less than awful right now.

The abortion thing is political, it depends on the State if/when the Supreme Court drops this ruling. Guns are in the constitution, and even a Blue State like Connecticut won't save you or your children.

Mononoke I can see being better than Spirited, but not Howl.

Howl is still great but it's kinda all over the damn place, a lot of people consider it Miyazaki's worst film and I may be inclined to agree but even his worst film is better than most.

As for the shooting, nothing is gonna be done about it just like nothing was done about the last 40 or so that happened in the last 10 years, and I mean literally nothing, no assault weapon bans, no background checks, no closing loopholes, just thoughts and prayers for what it counts.

Nor will anything be done about the complete and utter uselessness of the police when it comes to protecting lives which isn't their job anyway, it's protecting capital. If anything the government will respond the way it always does, by funneling even more money to the police so they can lock up more non-violent drug users, steal I mean seize more personal property and murder more black kids while not doing a damn thing to stop mass shootings. Cops are specifically trained to value their own lives before anyone else's and then we pay them a sh*tload of money to not give a f*ck about us and that's just the way it is.

Please don't politicize this tragedy by demanding any kind of change, wait at least a month when surely nothing like this will happen again.

Hey those cops weren't just doing nothing. They were pepper spraying parents of kids being shot to make themselves feel better about not being big dick men in control.

I was actually gonna mention that but my post was already a bit of an angry rambling mess, I can't cram all of my thoughts and feelings into a single post or it would take me all day.
