why can we not spend our time trying to understand WHY these people keep doing these things and working it from that angle?
I already know why people are doing these things and have stated it several times over the years since joining. You are reaping the results of years of progressivism, years of immorality from taking religion out of society, you have cheapened life, people no longer value it, combined with overpopulation, lack of real opportunity and the realization that their life no longer matters and will never have a piece of the American Dream. People are sick and tired of being regulated, controlled, and told how to think, act, drive, shit, blow their nose, while heavily taxed with no voice in their government as change is FORCED upon them they neither like, want, but are made to accept and even pay for.
And all the restrictions and laws in the world will not change the violent and angry proclivities of the befouled masses. Guns, cars, knives, bombs, broken glass, rope, sticks, hands, trying to suppress their anger at how the world is failing them will only make people more angry not less.
