When tragedies and run of the mill gun violence meet, America

I'm sure this is the America our founding fathers envisioned, conservatives lust after, and their God has ordained.

Prove me wrong.

Considering the reasons behind the founding and the atrocities committed in the name of it during expansion, you may have a hard time with that argument.

This one felt like a workplace case from the beginning:

Gunman in Southern California mass shooting knew his victims

ORANGE, Calif. (AP) — The gunman who killed four people and critically wounded a fifth at a Southern California office building knew all the victims and apparently before opening fire chained shut the gates to two entrances, delaying police from getting inside, authorities said Thursday.

The motive changes things how? The motive behind each shooting doesn't change anything. We have a problem on our hands, and there is only one sustainable solution.

How old is a "6th grader"? I have no idea what that means.

Interesting that there's no thread on this one. Presumably because nobody was actually killed?

She was somewhere between 11 and 12.
Yeah I was just getting ready to post this.

Now if only there was a good guy with a gun to stop her before she started firing.
I guess we need to be arming our 6th graders.
/s

Idaho gov did give thoughts and prayers.

"Idaho Gov. Brad Little said he was staying updated on the shooting.

"I am praying for the lives and safety of those involved in today's tragic events," Little said on Twitter. "Thank you to our law enforcement agencies and school leaders for their efforts in responding to the incident."

Our country is so effed up we will probably never get this violence with guns under control.

Another thread would just be populated by "but Chicago" rhetoric.

East 6th is sketchy at the best of times and the largest biker rally in Texas is this weekend.

Is the bike rally why the street itself was closed off to vehicle traffic? Explains the density of foot traffic. I'm honestly surprised nobody was killed, and hope the critically injured recover.

Also hope they find the shooter, obviously.

Then there was this - even more chilling than most shootings due to the lack of any connection between shooter and victims, and due to the victims themselves. No outraged ex-employee with a grudge. No neighbor with issues. No jilted lover. No gang activity. No nothing. The 55 yr old man entered a Publix grocery in Royal Palm Beach, FL, followed a woman and a toddler, pulled out a gun and killed the 1 yr old baby and the baby's 69 yr old grandmother and then killed himself. He had expressed on social media a desire to "kill people and children."

Gunman in Florida grocery store shot baby first before killing grandmother, investigator says

The gunman who opened fire in a Florida grocery store Thursday first fired one shot that killed a 1-year-old boy before struggling with the boy's 69-year-old grandmother and then fatally shooting her, authorities said.

They will blame it on the Democrat Mayor (Austin) because everything is the democrats fault... Even if the entire government (federal/state/local) was All Republican, they would still blame the democrats because their followers are to stupid to comprehend and/or admit the truth.
