Another school shooting

[Tbeck]

DF, first I wanted to correct something you posted earlier. David killed Goliath with his own sword, beheaded him, after stunning him with a rock. It's a common misinterpretation of what happened to claim he killed him with a stone.

Secondly, gender dysphoria is a mental health condition. I'm not sure if it's the only mental health condition that these folks have but you are correct in pointing out that several of these recent shootings involved people who had a known mental health condition or two. I guess the question becomes, what additional baggage did these particular people have that made them engage in these terrible attacks? The mental health folk's are clearly missing some warning that needs to be identified.

What should be alarming and I am sure you are seeing it, historically gender dysphoria is a MALE dominated mental health condition. However if you follow the transgender movement taking place in the US, it's girl's and not necessarily guy's. So the question I have is whether all this recent GD change is being driven by social media? Meaning these young people are led to believe that is their issue when in fact they have some other mental health problem. I find it difficult to believe that hundreds of years of trending on a medical condition just decides to flip from male dominated to female dominant.

David, with accuracy and power, hurled a rock that sank into the forehead of the giant who commenced to fall on his face. Nowhere in the Bible does it suggest that the giant was merely stunned. David’s comrades, out of fear that the giant might wake up, encouraged him to decapitate which David did anyway to gain a trophy. That’s the Bible. David, a boy at the time, slew Goliath with a stone.

Thanks for the confirmation RK

I repeat, for correcting geniuses unable to read,
YOUNG DAVID SLEW THE GIANT WITH A STONE. I CONFIRMED NOTHING OF YOUR REWRITE OF THE BIBLE.

WHEN POLICE CAN RIDDLE THE SHOOTER'S BODY AND THEN SHOW WHAT HAPPENS, IT WILL DISCOURAGE

SHOOTERS FOR THE FUTURE. WALKING A SHOOTER OUT ONLY TELLS THEY GOT AWAY WITH IT. AND NO BLAZE OF GLORY

[Tbeck]

Actually you did RK. Yep he tossed a stone, but it was the beheading that kept Goliath from getting back up. Thanks again for the confirmation.

Timmy is back at it again!

You see, HE is a...."history teacher"!......Forget what the Books say about past events,....HE is.."The Burning Bush"...only HE knows of history!

Isn't it amazing what having a "masters degree" bestows to someone?

The Bible does not state that he was merely stunned. David’s comrades were in fear that the giant would wake up and beseeched him to decapitate which he did but only as a trophy. That is the Bible. I do not study theology. I read The Bible. The Word of God.

It’s amazing that for thousands of years the story has been repeated that little David killed the giant using his sling, but this megalomaniac troll wants to correct us!

First, I always knew the story that David killed Goliath with a rock in a sling.

Should we now believe that Jesus wasn't killed by being nailed to a cross and that, instead, it was the Roman soldier who speared his body was what really ended his life?

Second...

My POINT was...guns have been used for good and bad. So have cars. So have knives. So have pharmacutical drugs. Etc...

Banning guns does nothing to benefit anyone as the criminals will NEVER listen to the gun-banning laws. I don't know how many times anti-gun people need to hear this before it actually sinks in and they realize that statement is 100% correct.

I agree. My post was in no way directed at you.

Well if you fellas read more and didn't rely on stories, perhaps you would know the truth instead of a story? Maybe check the SOURCE; 1 Samuel 17:51... You know the Bible

I did,...and here's what I found it says;

.....49 Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground.
50 So David triumphed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone; without a sword in his hand he struck down the Philistine and killed him.
51 David ran and stood over him. He took hold of the Philistine’s sword and drew it from the sheath. After he killed him, he cut off his head with the sword. When the Philistines saw that their hero was dead, they turned and ran........

So,...the wording is not absolutely definitive and can be interpreted either way.

[Tbeck]

Designer, try reading the actual bible. The sources you've listed are not Samuel, but rather interpretation. Just saying. Samuel 17 is actually a pretty cool book

This time a bank shooting in Kentucky. I wonder if the bank employee who shot up the place was a "confused about their gender" individual...or if it was all because of the gun.

He was confused because of the Trump administration.

From what I've heard he was an employee that was going to be fired so he shot up the place.

Either one is a mental illness...
