    Another mass shooting has occurred wherein the suspect isn't white and can't be tied to Trump, Republicans, the NRA, or white supremacy. Sure, CNN is reporting it, save for suspects identity... dog bites man I guess, no political value presumably.

    A mass shooting is a mass shooting, though only some mass shootings are worthy of discussion at the national level.

    And a dog killing a man has no political value either.

    Fortunately this 1 year old was only mauled, not killed, leaving physical and mental scars for life.

    Looking forward to the cries for restrictions on dog ownership.

    Yeah, this one is clearly not much of a national story. If you can't figure out why shootings that kill a dozen people get more attention than one where no one dies, I don't know what to tell you.

    As it is I want to know how the shooter(s) got their guns and where the guns originated. You?

    we had a shooting in 2015 in my town, 5 Injured 1 dead. they finally caught the guy a couple weeks back, it's been a regular news item for 5 years with updates and such.

    if some of these cities like chi,balt,det, give the same exposure to shooting, they would need a 24/7 murder channel for each city.

    Statistically,
    By far the vast majority of ALL shootings occur in solidly BLUE areas.......

    Explain.

    Do we really have a "Gun" problem....or is it really a culture problem?

    A mass shooting is a mass shooting. Where are the gun control advocates?

    Source of the gun? I'd imagine stolen originally, whether perp paid for it or not.

    This just in: 25 people shot and 3 confirmed dead.

    Oops, wait, that was just a weekend in Chicago. I had forgotten that the only murders that count are mass murders.

    That's a whole lot of gun violence, gun violence which seems to occur perpetually. In fact, I may be wrong... but it would appear that the sort of gun violence which occurs endlessly in places like Chicago, Baltimore, Detroit, St. Louis dwarfs the sort of shootings that MSM and gun control activists really like to zero in on. It's almost as if we're having the wrong conversation and seeking the wrong solutions if reducing gun violence were the goal.

    Over 2,000 were shot and wounded in Chicago last year. 2,000...

    agree, even though 99% are white males, if a female or black does the same it is also news

    so lets talk about this one, was it done because of the race or religion of the victims? were drugs or alcohol involved, was the guy mentally ill that did the killings, did they know each other? where did he get the gun?

    agree, ending the war on drugs would be a big start, as it would defund gangs

    The Democratic Party's only interest is advancing the Democratic Party. They care nothing about poor black boys being murdered in Chicago or anywhere else.

    There is a reason people in Aurora and Denver call that area "Saudi Aurora". It's not uncommon to hear gun shots around there. We used to live in that apartment complex. That's the reason I live in the mountains now. It used to be a nice area but now it is saturated with gang activity.

    "They described that person as a black male of an unknown age, who was wearing a yellow hooded sweatshirt."

    Not sure where you've been, but there are plenty of cries for restrictions on dog ownership.

    That depends on how you define mass shooting. If you define it as 3 or 4 shot by the same person, as the gun control advocates do, then it's most definitely not 99% white males.

    https://www.americanthinker.com/blo...ing_mass_shooting_is_still_a_black_thing.html

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mass_shootings_in_the_United_States_in_2019

    It would be nice to know, but it would appear as though investigative "journalists" aren't that interested in the details of this incident or the person responsible.

    Why do people need to kill each other over drug turf and deals? Couldn't they negotiate?
