When you try to commit mass murder and the only person you manage to kill is yourself. This is why women shouldn't be allowed to see combat....just kidding.

I knew it...
Damn. Now I guess YT has to fortify their offices to protect themselves from irate content creators. Monetization was the worst thing that ever happened to that site.
Hmm. A woman shooter? Interesting. They tend to kill for personal reasons.
She was clearly not mentally healthy. Those were some weird video's from what I could gather. Also very extreme when it came to her veganism.

Pretty sure that one person was talking about this article about London passing New York's murder rate for the first time ever. http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-43610936 New York is still higher for the year. 2 months could very well be a fluke. |
that you had to compare subsections of the countries instead of the whole country should tell you something, but then again i suppose once you buy the narrative that guns are the only problem in society you start putting blinders on

Here’s a simple plot of the murder rates over time, for the U.S. (using the FBI’s UCR / Universal Crime Report) and U.K. (using their ONS / Office of National Statistics). And I overlay when they each enacted or removed gun controls. What you notice is:
Regardless of whether the UK has fewer murders than the US for cultural reasons, we know that gun control didn’t help the UK or US's murder rate. And in fact, seemed to have the opposite effect. Enacting them seemed to increase murders, and removing those allowed downward murder rates to continue.
Something to note is that Scotland and Ireland have higher murder rates than in England/Whales and the U.S. despite their gun control. So we know that gun control doesn’t work for Scotland and Ireland.
Anyone vaguely informed on gun control issues knows is that the U.S. does not have a gun problem.
Another thing gun-controller advocates either don’t realize (or do, and lie about) is as bad as the U.S. is at murders or violent crime -- the UK is worse despite their gun control. England alone has something like 600 murdersby knife per year (and 26,370 knife crimes). Compare that to only 1,500 for the U.S., with over 5 times the population. Home invasion robberies, aggravated assault, violent rape, and stabbings are worse in the UK than in the U.S. And that's BEFORE you correct for race and gang crimes.
So in the end, when it comes to trends:
Anyone that tells you otherwise is trying to prestidigitate the numbers, and baffle you with bullshit and fallacies -- not explain the numbers and show their work, as I just did.

And the UK has surpased New York just recently in murders due to a rising knife problem. Better start banning knives. |

Wait, let me get this straight.. Some vegan woman just shot up a Youtube coroprate building, wounding a few people and only killing herself.. because (she believed) they were censoring or trying to rob her of views for her crazy vegan videos?
Is this the Twilight Zone or something? :/

As stupid as it may be, it's still an alarming incident. It could have gone much worse.
