Wait what's happened in New York?

This sounds more like gang shit

A group of four men fired at least 30 gunshots into a crowd that gathered near the Amazura nightclub

[–] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 86 points 2 months ago (3 children)

It doesnt matter the reason, its still a mass shooting.

[–] chalupapocalypse@lemmy.world 61 points 2 months ago (4 children)

I guess, the term mass shooting just makes me think of one dude going off the rails.

The fact that we need subgenres for this shit is disgusting either way.

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 37 points 2 months ago

I still think your distinction is important. They are both tragedies of course, but it's important to know and understand the cause.

Mass shooting? Sounds like a normal Wednesday.

NYC has the lowest crime rate of any US major city by a lot.

First mass shooting in the US.

Unfortunately Montenegro beat us to the punch this year with a mass shooting killing 10 earlier yesterday.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 53 points 2 months ago (1 children)

What the fuck, Montenegro, get your own thing. Something related to chain smoking probably.

I'm just happy they're finally acknowledging that domestic terrorism is a thing, even if its just to avoid looking hypocritical because of Luigi Mangione

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Finally? Didn't Homeland Security or the FBI come out in the mid 2000s to warn that the most serious terror threat would be the domestic one?

[–] Liz@midwest.social 28 points 2 months ago (1 children)

And that they would be mostly right-wing folks, which has generally been true, in part because the bush administration deprioritized going after them.

Don't catch you slippin' now

[–] callouscomic@lemm.ee 16 points 2 months ago (2 children)

None of which happened in most people's local areas. Stop reading national news on a regular basis. Focus on your small little life, your family, your neighborhood, your little area.

Of course when you cast a wide net nationally or globally, there will always be negative things happening, and then if you mainly focus on those events, you'll act as if negative things are the only things.

[–] theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world 43 points 2 months ago (6 children)

It didn't happen to me personally, so it's fine! Stop paying attention!!

😬

[–] grue@lemmy.world 26 points 2 months ago (2 children)

He's not wrong: if the topic isn't within your circle of control, then worrying over it is just mentally masturbating to disaster porn.

The key is that the advice to ignore such things isn't about advocating for blissful ignorance like you think it is. It's that shrinking your circle of concern frees up your focus to grow your circle of control.

tbh i have been doing this since the election was done with in november ‘24 & i haven’t felt better! my feed is just tech & other interests w no national/global news & keyword filters for the bs the news pushes pretty heavy: trump, musk, bezos, israel, etc. it’s definitely helped me regain some of my sanity.

Oh boy! 2 days in and 3 things happened already!

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 37 points 2 months ago (2 children)

There is actually more stuff than mentioned here.

  • A vehicle rammed a crowd, killing ten and injuring thirty.

  • A state judge shot himself in the face at the office on Monday.

  • FBI found a record number of homemade pipe bombs in Virginia.

  • pretty sure you are talking about the terrorist attack in New Orleans? 15 dead now
  • that was 2024
  • damn
[–] Tetsuo@jlai.lu 13 points 2 months ago (2 children)

This attack in New Orleans feels really bad for me as a French person because it reminds me of that attack we had in 2016 where a truck killed 86 people on our national day.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_Nice_truck_attack

I can't help to think your terrorist attack was somehow inspired from that 2016 terrible terrorist attack.
