There are reports of multiple shooters, so it could be a coordinated act of terrorism. Damn it to hell! :(
We don't know yet what motivated it. I was also thinking it could be gang related. It's a bit early to be playing the race and religion cards until we find out who and why.

Which is funny since you immediately are trying to dismiss it as other things (that you have a history of associating with certain races and religions). Its a bit early to be playing the "terrorists" or "gang" cards too, eh?

The manifesto claims support for the New Zealand shooter and is a response to “the Hispanic invasion”.

In no way saying this is real. Could just be the usual internet bullshit we see right after these events. Just posting what is being discussed.


Either way, that's some pretty fucked up thought process. On one hand lefty environmental b terrorist, but mostly motivated by racial hatred, "race mixing" that decreases genetic diversity (obviously failed genetics class) and desire to split the country into racial territories.

WTF

Determined to die because of the death penally. Well, so much for it's crime deterrence value...

And of course, a debate and experiment on whether an ar15 or ak47 is better for killing masses of people. Thanks NRA!

Let’s not jump to conclusions. I wouldn’t put it past the Internet Research Agencies of the world to spread bullshit in the wake of a mass shooting. By now we’ve had enough of these to recognize a pattern—early reports of multiple shooters/shooters still at large and then later you find out there was 1 shooter, either in custody or dead by his own hand.

Besides, at the end of the day, does it really matter who did it and why, or whether this should have been so easy to pull off in the first place??

Shooter identified as Patrick Crusius, 21, of Allen, Texas
Souinds like the manifesto is his: "The federal sources said investigators are reviewing an online writing posted days before the shooting that may speak to a motive. "
https://www.cnn.com/2019/08/03/us/el-paso-shooting/index.html

This is what I read:
NBC News: There are at least 19 people killed and 40 people injured as a result of the shooting at the shopping center in El Paso, TX, according to senior U.S. law enforcement officials briefed on the investigation.

I do not understand the person who would do this. Not one little bit.

The suspect in the deadly shooting at an El Paso shopping center is Patrick Crusius, 21, of Allen, Texas, three sources tell CNN.

The information comes from two federal law enforcement sources and one state government source. The federal sources tell CNN that investigators are reviewing an online writing posted days before the shooting that may speak to a motive.

The sources say the online posting is believed to be written by Crusius, but have not confirmed that

If accurate, another alt right and/or incel fanatic.

The manifesto...

What does one do when their entire life... an ENTIRE LIFE is spent, from birth, building up towards the fabled American dream?
What does one do when the rug is swept out from under that dream?

Americans suffering the madness of despair cannot process it, they cannot understand it. Why must they suffer so? We did not equip them with the mental tools to understand, to process how the economy works or what they are likely to expect in life. We told them they could go to college and get rich. Have a house, fancy cars, a whole family. What about those who were left behind, an ever growing legion of men whose dreams were crushed by despair?

We did not teach them how or why they would fail. So they do not understand. But they see "others". It is only human, in our tribal nature, to look out and blame someone else. To find scapegoats and "simple" answers to complex problems. For when one cannot comprehend what has occurred, they seek solace in our darkest and most primitive instincts. Kill or be killed. So these people break, and in doing so they use their American given weapons of war to share that pain with others.

By our nation's despair, these are America's most dangerous and tragic days since the civil war.

Its Texas so...







That's about the level of concern Californians get from red states so...



El Paso is also is military city so I guess they need more guns and good guys./s




Are we done with the sarcasm and the hollow thoughts and prayers yet or can we start actually making changes? Gun nutters?

This is really sad. If only if it would have been a gun free zone.

Are you making fun of yourself because you basically highlighted the fact that a heavily armed state like Texas in a city full of highly trained "good guys" isn't much of a deterrent at all. And since you acknowledge gun free zones don't work, what's your next move you trolling piece of shit?

So when we get to this happening once a week, still absolutely nothing we can do about this right?
Hope you like blood on your hands.

White nationalist Trump fanatic. How many violent extremists who act on it has he had a shared hand in radicalizing now? There was the nut in Kansas who murdered the Indian guy, the Charlottesville guy with the car, NZ shooter and this guy.

Oh, and the maga bomber guy. Then there was the Coast Guard guy who they caught in time

This type of person has always been around. What's changed is that their type can own or easily gain access to weapons and ammo capable of mass casualties.

If I were a gun owner I would be demanding for changes so I wouldn't lose all rights to own a gun.

They're called Deloprables. Trump is their president.
