In an incredible show of insipid totality, Donald Trump Jr. he insisted on Saturday in a video fueled with rage on social media that Uvalde’s mass shooter could have killed 19 children and two teachers with a “rat”.
Assault rifles are being stigmatized when “shit people” is the real problem, he denounced in a Facebook video.
Trump Jr., with a red face and almost teary eyes, shouted that the shooter was a “sociopath” who could wreak the same havoc with almost any other weapon.
“It’s the weapon; it’s not the sociopath who wears it, ”people say, complaining. “Wouldn’t he have done exactly the same thing with a bat, a bomb, or some kind of improvised device, or a machete?” added.
The real problem is that people are “shit” and we have “crazy teachers” and “indoctrination programs” in our schools, he insisted.
“That’s what’s happening right now, guys. That’s enough,” said Trump, who said he was looking for “responsibility.” “It never ends, man,” he added.
In fact, the weapon is crucial in the amount of destruction that any shooter can offer. Assault rifles cause extreme trauma to the human body, and bullets are quickly spit out, allowing a gunman to do maximum damage very quickly.
A pediatric trauma surgeon at San Antonio University Hospital who helped save the lives of injured children at Uvalde Elementary School told CNN earlier this week that high-speed bullets are starting. ” wide areas “of tissue that instantly trigger a massive hemorrhage that can kill. someone in five minutes. That’s why mass shootings with assault rifles have so few survivors (unlike, for example, a bat attack).
“When a high-velocity gun enters a body, it basically creates a wave and an explosion,” Dr. Lillian Liao told “Nightline.” So it looks like part of the body has been blown up. A high-speed firearm will create a giant hole in the body. “
All survivors treated suffered “major destructive wounds,” which are more likely to affect an organ in a child’s small body, he said.
The story goes on
When Scottish parents and gun control advocates fight to ban high-caliber pistols after 16 children were killed in a mass shooting in 1996 at a Dunblane school, the late Prince Philip asked if anyone he killed people with a cricket bat, it would be him. banned too?
Obviously, this was “nonsense,” 5-year-old Sophie’s father Mick North, who was murdered in Dunblane, told NPR on Friday, recalling the prince’s complaint.
These statements do not fully acknowledge the terrible devastation of weapons, especially automatic weapons, North said. “It’s too easy for someone to grab something like a gun and wreak havoc in a matter of seconds and certainly in a matter of minutes,” he said.
