It's never an inappropriate time to scold people about 19th-century atrocities.

Let's keep the drama to a minimum, folks. This is already a loaded topic to begin with, no reason to expand upon what's already present.

Unreal. What a nutcase. Those poor people and their families.
Imma backup SD up in here though because well he's right.
Also - and I know lot's of people hate this, but - isn't it time the gun laws in the USA were changed? Really. And especially in Nevada.

He might be right, but it's incredibly off topic. This tragedy is so fresh, they're still updating the causality list. Using it to launch off on another whataboutist tirade about another group of people isn't exactly kosher.
And really honestly, if kindergartners getting killed in a school shooting won't effect change to our gun laws, nothing will. This is just another bad day in modern USA.

It's not off topic, it was correcting someone making a statement about this very topic.

Well, it might not be the worst mass shooting in the history of the US, but at least we can all agree that it's a pretty bad one, right? The worst one in living memory at least.

Qualify it as the worst shooting in recent history then. Move on from there.

I don't know what can be said about these things anymore. A tremendous tragedy, and it seems like the intervals between this particular brand of tremendous tragedy are getting shorter and shorter. What will be this nation's breaking point? Where will we get to before this shit stops?

In case you're all wondering why I'm very quickly becoming so bitter and cynical about our politics these days, here's another example from my Facebook wall. The names have been removed to protect the stupid from their own stupidity.

Every time there's a mass shooting, a game starts, where people start guessing, hoping, depending on your politics, what race, nationality, and creed the suspect is.
Was it a Muslim? I bet it was another Muslim? Nuh uh! It was a white dude! They're an angry bunch of xenophobic bigots. It had to be a white dude. No way. Muslims hate us for our freedoms. They're killing us all the time, that so called "religion of peace".
Ah, shit. It was a white dude.
...BUT LOOK! I FOUND THIS THING ON THE INTERNET THAT HE'S A REGISTERED DEMOCRAT, AND RECENTLY CONVERTED TO ISLAM! SCORE ONE FOR US!
Holy shit. 58 dead? That's a new high score, guys! We can use this for YEARS! GLAD I VOTED FOR TRUMP!
On rare occasions, it's a black dude. That's when things get really fun. Can't wait until we roll a Jew!
