This is an example of why "That can't happen here," is an incredibly ignorant thing to say. "That" HAS happened here. And it continues to happen to this day, too, no matter which political party is in power.

Uniparty* the Republican party was usurped and taken over by dems after the death of Calvin Coolidge, there's been no actual difference between the two parties since. Until this recent wave of grass roots populism swept over the GOP, we'll just have to see if it can fully take over the republican party and cripple the uniparty from within without being inevitably corrupted.

"Government" is just people. People who decide to get involved in how the country is run. Everyone could do that. From showing up at town halls to volunteering or running for office. If someone doesn't trust the system and doesn't use it and maintain it, then the system won't work for them. In most cases small thinks like giving feedback can go a long way in changing how the government works. Voting on presidential elections is probably the least impactful thing one can do to change how a country works. The entire second amendment is absurd nowadays. How would anyone know if the government is tyrannical? Half of the people think every four years that their president elect is the Messiah, and the other half thinks that the election was stolen / gerrymandered / votersuppressed. And what would an organized militia do? Go to a police station and shoot everyone? Or attack the Capitol Building? Destroy a McDonalds?

As tragic as it is, thank you for keeping this history alive, so that we may learn from it. I was in Pine Ridge a few years ago and visited Wounded Knee one night to pay my respects. The sign at the massacre site read, “Here marks the site of the last conflict between the U.S. Army and the Lakota People,” only someone had profoundly scratched out the word “last” with a knife. The memorial and mass grave up the hill was covered in prayer bundles and offerings, and I offered my own as well. But despite feeling the energy of the horror that took place, the experience was not eerie or “dead” as I expected it to be. The moon was full and bright and lit up the hills. In the distance I could hear owls hooting, dogs barking, coyotes howling and children laughing and playing. Seeing and hearing so much life gave me hope for the future of these people that have already suffered too much and still continue to suffer today. Thank you for another great video Karl.

He was apparently also a shotgun certificate holder, and owned at least one shotgun.

It's important to remember what many of us have forgotten. What was inflicted upon the Native peoples was in fact, a genocide. Between the forced relocations, the massacres, to the deprivation of human dignity it was no less than a genocide. A genocide that in many ways never ended for the Native peoples. What happened was a genocide so complete it served as a blueprint for the Holocaust. Don't forget that.

I hate to be "that guy", but I really do think it's the rise of the internet. Moreso than any kind of mental illness, the primary common factor among mass public shooters is a high degree of self-radicalization, and accordingly many mass public shootings could be classified as terroristic. The internet facilitates this by letting people sort themselves into echo chambers and intensify warped beliefs with minimal effort. I think it's also heavily driven by the 24-hour news cycle, in much the same way serial killers in the 70s and 80s were largely a media contagion and a desire for notoriety. It's worth noting that in this case I use the term "mass public shooting" as that's how the FBI defines these events. The popular definition overlaps massively with domestic violence and gang violence, leading to vastly inflated numbers despite very different root causes.

I wouldn't be surprised if Europeans receive better education about the dark side to American history than Americans do themselves. When I was in school (which wasn't too long ago) we basically just got taught "Settlers came, Natives "moved" for them" and that was it, then like 8 years of slavery bad, Holocaust bad, back to back each year, with nothing else elaborating on Native people past the Trail of Tears. Pretty frustrating as a Native person myself.

Lions led by donkeys podcast recently did a short series on Little Big Horn. The biggest takeaway. A battle is when two sides show up to fight each other. Little Big Horn was an attempted massacre that backfired. Where Custer tried to ambush a nearby encampment but underestimated the size and veracity of the natives. To the point where Custer didn't believe there would be a fight, he thought they would simply run away because the government and its army did not believe the natives were even human

My high school taught about Wounded Knee as if it were a battle. Growing up, that was the framing; i never knew about the ghost dance movement, or the disarmament of the Lakota there. Hell, we were even lied to about how Sitting Bull died, they taught us that he died in the "battle." This was... well, enraging, partly. Stomach-turning. I knew it was a massacre, but didn't ever know it was that bad, that one sided, that fucking RECENT. My grandmother's grandmother would've been alive at the same time as Wounded Knee, that's not long ago at all. Us being Native as well (though not Lakota) makes it feel closer to home, too, i think.

i think it doesn't matter if the gun of the worse mass shooting was done with a ar15 or a springfield... the question/debate is should civillians get access to military grade weaponry, the "well regulated" portion of the 2nd amendment means we should have regulations on gun ownership. Imo 1) you should have to take a certification/safety course to safely operate a gun of the class you are tyring to buy. this should be a re-newable certification required every 5 years. (the military requires recertification every year, civilians do not need that level but imo you should not be allowed to own a gun you don't know how to safely store/operate. 2) you should have a delay to cool down between the desire to buy a gun and the aquiring of it... this means people who are PISSED about something can't just go walk to a walmart, buy a gun and go shoot people... a cool down period should be between 2-3 months. (For situations where someone absolutely NEEDS a gun without delay, you should be able to have a court order or police over-ride, like a girl who has an abusive bf who has threatened her life, or one is needed for your employment IE you're police or security.) she should be able to get a gun sooner so she can protect herself if she files with the police. 3) you should be REQUIRED to store your weapon safely, and if your gun is used in a mass shooting incident, or even self inflicted or accidental discharge in the home, you should be held liable if you didn't store it accordingly. sorry you can't just keep your gun unlocked and sitting around for the neighborhood teen to see and steal and use... You have a responsibility when you own that weapon. None of these rules take peoples guns... all of them allow you to HAVE your weapons, yet we can't even get reasonable and rational gun laws passed because of the just sheer mental idiocy being shouted. I am one that believes guns should be less available and harder to acquire but i understand my opinion is just one of Millions in this country, but we should be able to come together for some rules agreed on both sides, where neither side gets EVERYTHING THEY WANT but a happy middle, Those 3 rules i stated would be that happy middle.... so why can't we just all come together to safeguard ourselves and our children... The thing we get into.. is when we talk about rational gun laws, and how widespread the mass shootings have become, yall throw in "but the worse mass shooting was by a different rifle not the AR platform" as if its a response to "hey can we pass some gun laws?" ...it...doesnt...matter. Can we have some fuckin LOGICAL gunlaws?!
