I understand what you are saying and sometimes kinda feel the same.violet wrote:I don’t comment on these events anymore. Not because I don’t care that people have needlessly dies and friends, families, etc. have lost loved ones, but because any words seem empty. Nothing changes.

How dare anyone mess with an antiquated document, written a couple hundred years ago in the 1700's. It's basically the word of God bro.ផោមក្លិនស្អុយ wrote:I understand what you are saying and sometimes kinda feel the same.violet wrote:I don’t comment on these events anymore.

Then I am reminded of the quote
‘The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing’
Yeah I’m not North American but I am still affected by these tragedies and am astounded that so many have happened without consequence.
Someone on a plane once had a bomb in their shoes and now we have to take our shoes off going through airport security. Hundred of kids get killed and...nothing really...

Valid point. I'm too lazy to do any research Gavin Mac style, but I would be willing to bet that almost all of these shootings are happening at public schools. So to answer your question, I think it would be frightful to send my kids to a public school in the U.S, but private schools are probably fine. Anyone a little less lazy want to prove/ disprove my theory?Miguelito wrote:Would you let your kids go to school in the U.S.?
And before a response of "it's statistically more dangerous to drive in a car than get killed by a gun", that is actually wrong. Motor vehicle deaths and gun deaths in the U.S. are about equal, with around twice that many being shot each year.
I won't do the exact comparisons at the moment, but if Cambodia had an equal percentage of the population being shot each year, along with mass shootings in public spaces and in schools, everyone would think it was crazy to live here.
So, wouldn't it be frightful to send your kids to a U.S. school?

I still reckon i'd be more anxious about a kid riding a motorcycle in Phnom Penh, than getting shot at a school in the U.S though. Oh the carnage.Miguelito wrote:Would you let your kids go to school in the U.S.?

You just commented though! Anyway I'm reluctant to post on topics like this either when everyone seems so polarized, but it seems like the discussions are becoming more progressive.violet wrote:I don’t comment on these events anymore.
