God forbid me from America.

I no do, make I manage Nigeria abeg.

jeruzi:
How does this stop the reality of what is happening in Nigeria.
Fulani killings. Herders carrying guns and killing farmers, boko haram etc. Are these not the situation in Nigeria. Who then should be blamed? An American serial shooter?

I wonder at why some people reason this way.

rusher14:
Over 70 thousand people killed by the gun in America in 2019 alone.

Dpharisee:
With this method Boko Haram and herdsmen would have been cleared out, every Christian needs to own a gun in Nigeria, that's the way to fight the creeping jihad

WorldBank gives loan Haven't you seen world Bank projects in Nigeria?

At least 28 people were wounded in 3 separate shootings across these 3 states below last weekend.

13 people were shot in Chicago at a memorial party

7 people shot while waiting to get into a Baltimore lounge

A 19 year old man was shot dead in Minnesota

But it is Africa that is not safe

Lewisalexander:



Naija is not safe. Period!

davillian:
If its Nigeria the gunman would have killed like 40 people and injured 115....
Even with high level of security in America everybody home has a gun...

CaptainMeks:


I am trying to show deluded people how hypocritical USA is and how they love using lies to paint other nations bad while theirs is an eldorado.

How can they explain holding the record of highest deaths from mass shootings in the world at almost 70,000 this year alone?

How can they explain 412 mass shootings this year alone which translates to over 1 mass shooting daily for each day of the year?

How can they explain about 24,000 suicides this 2019 alone?

How can they explain almost a thousand children shot this year alone?

yet they say Africa is unsafe.

Do the above records show they are safe too?

Deltayankeeboi:
very stupid post. You are just fooling yourself around.

mvem:
which high level of security...do you watch the news at all?...the deaths by gun in the US is far beyond many countries. In a day like Chicago you have many deaths that don't show up on the news due to gun violence. Una go use Hollywood dey judge US

rusher14:


My error.

The true figure is 39, 146. It is a small figure.

mvem:
he said facts why you said nothing...use points that are factual to counter him

CaptainMeks:


The same BBC and American media published the records.

You think i am dumb like you?

alphaNomega:
When this is over, the man who brought a handgun to church should go for psychiatric evaluation. He might be the next shooter

beardedboy:


Christians in Benue, maiduguri and other conflict zones have guns. The media only publishes what is inline with their desires.

Proof pls

Deltayankeeboi:
I don't have the time for unnecessary and baseless arguments. Ranting up and down Nairaland discrediting the safety of US is plain stupidity. I don't engage in such.

rusher14:


So you know how to request proof but never ever produce when you make an argument:

Chinkobanana:


You are right. Chicago is the holy grail of gun violence. It happens there like the air you breath. Much of it goes unreported. You will never catch me dead in Chicago.

PrecisionFx:


So why does every single media company report only boko haram, islamic killings and fulani killings in Nigeria.

Deltayankeeboi:
I don't have the time for unnecessary and baseless arguments. Ranting up and down Nairaland discrediting the safety of US is plain stupidity. I don't engage in such.

So where are the 70k deaths from Mass shootings?

Eddee:


Saw photos of his workshop once. Saw a flag somewhere. He's an all American, American!!!



My guy once I have my own family, I'm staying strapped be it legally or illegally. Guns are a normal way of life for my extended family. 80 percent of them are or were in the Armed Forces. Only a few of them chickened out. Cannot afford to be at the mercy of an alcohol/depraved/hatred fueled individual wielding an iron and lead.

A gunman opened fire in a church in Texas, killing one parishioner and wounding another before being shot dead by members of the congregation.

The gunman stood up from a pew at West Freeway Church of Christ in White Settlement, a suburb of Fort Worth, pulled out a shotgun, a begun shooting.

Police said they were still trying to determine the attacker's motives.

White Settlement Police Chief JP Bevering praised "the heroic actions" of those who confronted the attacker.

The shooting took place at about 11:50 (17:50 GMT), during the morning service. The service was being live-streamed on social media.

Video footage showed the gunman stand up from a pew and speak to a man nearby, who gestured at another parishioner. The gunman then fired at the man he gestured toward.

The gunman fired again, at the man he had spoken to, before a member of the congregation returned fire with a handgun, immediately felling the attacker. Several other parishioners also produced handguns and trained them on the attacker. It was not clear from the video footage whether any of the other armed parishioners fired shots.

The shooting happened during the morning service at West Freeway Church of Christ
US sees highest number of mass killings on record
Members of the congregation in the nearly full church ducked down behind pews as screaming filled the room.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott called the shooting "an evil act of violence".

"Places of worship are meant to be sacred, and I am grateful for the church members who acted quickly to take down the shooter and help prevent further loss of life," he said in a statement.

Witness Isabel Arreola told local broadcaster CBS DFW: "It was the most scariest thing. You feel like your life is flashing before you. I was so worried about my little one."

Texas has seen a number of deadly shootings this year. In August, 22 people died and 24 were wounded at a Walmart store in El Paso. The same month a gunman killed seven and wounded 20 at Odessa-Midland.

In 2017, 26 people were killed when a gunman opened fire at a Baptist church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, during a Sunday service.

Do you live in America? Well i do and i am a Nigerian and you just stated bullshit right here. You have no idea what is going on here.

There are neighborhoods here where someone gets shot every damn night with sirens blaring all through the night. As at now, nowhere is safe. From Churches to Movie Theaters to Concerts to Malls to Schools to Synagogues to Mosques to Parks to Nightclubs to Office Buildings to festivals to Stores to Military Bases to Bars to Post Offices to Yoga Studios

Nowhere is safe from the scourge of gun violence in America. I have experienced it up close and personal and stats do not do justice to the hella mess going on here
