Mostly are from European cartoonists but there 2 or 3 from Australia and Africa.

The subject was very insspiring (alas...)

I posted a collection a few days ago. If you want, I can put the link or find it via my journal.

How did you discover democraticunderground.com?

You selected to place "SIN CITY" at the top of the list. This is confusing for me. The man who killed all these people had no religious affiliation. What does this cartoon say to you?

Thank you for sharing

I don't remember if it was an article or because I made a research after reading one.

I just posted what I have found related to Las Vegas shooting. but, in fact, it shouldn't be on the top. I will move it and put it at the end.

To be honest, it it the less talkative too me. I did not really catch what meant the cartoonist.

Generally, I don't post the cartoons I don't understand.

This time, I just collected all the ones I found, more in the spirit to show how much the subject inspires European cartoonists and elsewhere.

Sin City is from a Nigerian one.

That's LV's unofficial nickname. Several businesses around town go by that name.

I live here and I wasn't offended.

I didn't know that.

It wouldn't have changed much because as I said above, it was not very talkative to me and the spirit was more to show the great interest of the cartoonists.

Your explanation gave me a better comprehension but still not the one I prefer.

I’m always interested to see what the rest of the world thinks about this messed up country.

But please, don't see your country as messed up.

It is a great one. Just nowdays struggling with a hurricane named Trump...

I always look at the USA in its entire history, not only the guilty assholes such as Nixon, Reagan, Bush F&S, and the supreme current one. Those are to blame as one after the other brought you in this mess.

Just keep fighting, no despair, get the right real patriots to the power and soon, all this nightmare will just remain a souvenir.
