Probably because all of today's shooters do much of their shooting indoors like in schools/movie theaters.

Unlike John Wilkes Booth

Dude played Duck Hunt with his gun right against the screen... and planned accordingly.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

I don’t think they had movies back then. Well, at least not talkies.

Why you got to call me out like that

[–] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago (1 children)

And then I fired, and I missed. Then I fired, and I missed!

[–] LordKitsuna@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

I fell asleep, I woke up with a popsicle stick in my mouth, fired again. Missed

she can only react to the limited stimuli of recent events

What the hell I need to learn to shoot for?

F that! I'm following my dreams

[–] Meruten@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 6 days ago

Your dream could be to become a sniper though. 😋

As one Australian war criminal once said

"Shoot straight you bastards! Don't make a mess of yourselves!"

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

What?

A variant of Eat hot chip and lie.

[–] reagansrottencorpse@lemmy.ml 10 points 6 days ago

That's one of the funniest tweets I've ever seen.

[–] Lev_Astov@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Okay, that was hilarious; thanks for that.

John Hinkley was born in 1955 and seemed to miss Reagan.

why are we censoring "shooter" but not the name of a far-right forum that has harassed me multiple times

[–] Akrenion@slrpnk.net 16 points 6 days ago

One gets you demonetized the other gets you engagement. Capitalism wins again.

[–] nomous@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

4chan is a "far-right forum" now?

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 14 points 6 days ago (1 children)

...yes? Why wouldn't it be

[–] nomous@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

I probably wouldn't classify it that way. It's a cesspool but not really what I'd consider "far right" like say Stormfront.

You'll find people openly arguing with Nazis so it's not really fair to say it's a far right forum as much as it is just a complete cesspool where the worst side of people comes out.

FWIW I wouldn't really consider Telegram a far right forum either even though they're definitely there and highly visible.
