This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Exactly! We're not having hundreds of random shootings in a given year, a very small subset are those crazy, heinous shootings where someone decides to hurt as many people as possible. Most of the incidents don't make national news because they're something like a drive by or similar.

Nice dog whistle.
The virctims in gang violence include innocent bystanders.
We all know exactly what you're really saying here and you'll deny and make excuses about it.
Just because you read into it wrong doesn't make your bullshit interpretation correct.
Yes, There are innocent bystanders that die. It's a major issue. The only thing I'm trying to say is that it isn't the same issue as widespread violence
You used those additional qualifiers. You're just back peddling. You're clearly indicating it's not a big deal because it's not people like you who are affected.
