Ok folks…. aside from this Crimo jerkwad and his very bad behavior, what the frak were the police doing before the parade. Did they even bother searching for threats against the crowd? Or were they all too busy flashing their badge and big guns to the pretty girls? I call supreme incompetence on this tragedy…… I generally like and respect cops, but this is one big frak up for them to sleep at night! They dropped the ball big time!
A conceal carry or open carry cannot protect anyone from this weapon of war in an urban setting.
The shooter is a TRUMP VOTER LIKE HIS FATHER!
watch this pathetic network blame the gun Instead of blaming a psychopath
They say it can happen anywhere, that's not true. It happens mainly in the US, and the legilaters are responsable. Welcome to the "free" USA. How do we explain this to our kids?
I thought it was east chicago, Indiana or highland indiana
These mass shooters are just like the taliban the only difference is they use an AR15 and not a bomb. STOP USING MENTAL HEALTH AS AN EXCUSE.
My cousin is mentally handicapped. Saddled with Vitiligo, born with male & female genitals in Wyoming. Got thru third grade & reads very simple constructs do to poor vision. I’m going to help him run for some GOP position in Georgia. I heard he may have a chance if I get him a
red cap or a plastic AR-15 for his campaign poster. Come on Trump, giv’m a shot. He’s loyal . I wrote your name on a sticky note pinned to his shirt. P.S. he can also climb a peach tree while carrying a dish of cold soup. A simple mind for a simple solution: “less guns”, he’d say.
USA🇺🇸.. Land of Happy Guns😔… What a horrific day….enough is enough.. Organize your people and vote for your life.
I find it curious that Chicago has weekly gang black on black murder and the names and details are taboo. Let a crazy white guy shoot people, and the media can't stop pushing the racist/anti-gun narrative. It's all a shitshow.
Just another day in the USA. Seriously this is just normal now, all anyone can seem to do is give hopes and prayers. What a joke. Protect yourselves people, this society has thrown us overboard just like George Carlin said.
And the politicians that care more for money and power remain immovable in the face of murder time and time again. They have the power to bring change but will not change…
How many people have to die before NRA backs banning weapons of war.
No good guys with guns could stop a rooftop shooter… But had he not had a way to get his gun in the first place..
44 Americans shot by other Americans each day. The ONLY country on Earth that has school shootings.
American parents protest at school meetings about? A: School shootings B: Masks.
The US constitution has already been amended 27 times and as easy to amend as abortion law.
There are guns all around the world but this doesn't happen all around the world. The problem is Americans..
60 bullets for brown traffic violation.
0 bullets for pinky parade mass shooting.
Thank God I'm not American.
things will only get worse sadly
WAKE UP!! EVERYONE is at RISK. DON'T KNOW WHEN or WHERE. AMERICA is at WAR WITHIN ITSELF. NO BEER, NO CIGARETTE, ONLY GUNS of MASS DESTRUCTION are PERMITTED BEFORE 21. WHO LET THE GUNS OUT?
“The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. A well-regulated militia, composed of the body of the people, trained to arms, is the best and most natural defense of a free country.”– James Madison, I Annals of Congress 434, June 8, 1789
KEY PHRASES: "WELL REGULATED Militia "&"TRAINED to arms"
It seems that the US has SERIOUSLY dropped the ball, here. Why isn't our 'body of the people' either 'trained to arms' OR 'well regulated'?
It IS in the Constitution, isn't it?
If GUNS can't/won't be regulated, then maybe it will help if Government TRAINS and REGULATES the PEOPLE.
SWITZERLAND is a good example of a well-regulated militia. Nearly everyone in Switzerland is a gun owner (yet the Country has ZERO annual mass shootings).
In the US, it's just a free-for-all. SOMETHING has got to give….
sadness for the families that have suffered! I morn with you all: I really do! but my feelings of this bold American in your face act!!!! is this individual dies tomorrow. not on Fourth of July! not and any gathering, a mass shooter that's still alive should be killed tomorrow… period.
The scum that inflict this trauma on humans are a waste of life.
The outcome scares law abiding gun holders and scare the public from attending and enjoying social events.
These gunman have 1 thing in common. All of the time 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
338 mass shootings in less than 6 months in 2022 in the US… So where and when is the next one? Tomorrow, the day after, next week? So 6 months to go in 2022, what will the final count be, 700, 800, 1 000 mass shootings? Oh and by the way, talk about it more on the internet and in the news so it can give a challenge to more young men to do this ! Great job. And sell more assault weapons to kids without any mental health examination, what a good idea !
US not the land of the free and the home of the brave, but the land of the mass murderers (98% men) and the home of the dead.
Wonder how your God feels like about a society that allows civilians to legally purchase and possess assault weapons altogether……Does he approve and 'bless' America? I don't think so but hey keep trying to convince yourselves of that.
oh and I saw a comment about following the money. To that person I ask the question: who do you think would loose money if strict gun control measures were applied? The firearm industry yes. And they would no longer be able to fund political parties to influence them. It has nothing to do with the constitution, it is an argument which they know will strike a chord with the american people who think it is whollier than the bible, but it is simply a very efficient selling and marketing argument. Any consitution of any country can and should be modified to adapt to new social realities. But the weapon industry will be damned if they are going to let that happen.
Good luck you desperately need it.
That 22 year old man should never EVER EVER have had legal access to such a weapon, NEVER. It is as simple as that.
REPENTANCE! THE ENEMY IS IN THE CAMP! Sin is REAL.
Far Right?
The far radicalized right always shoot up a 4th of July show.
Dressed as a woman. blue & red hair, tattoos on his face.
Yah, far right.
Could they have stopped this center left normal NPC Democrat?
Yes, but the ends justifies the means.
It's for your own good they let this happen because guns are bad!
No gun owners helped.
This is another illustration of the need for comprehensive mental health care for our communities. After Reagan shut down hospitals and clinics, America's law enforcement has had no alternative to locking mentally ill individuals in jail. Democrats and the media continue to focus on division, hatred, and bullying against Americans who don't conform to their point of view.
There were 68 people shot in 51 separate shootings over the 4th weekend, yet nobody cares about all those other ones. In fact, there are shootings every single weekend in Chicago.
75.8% ?⚪
Corporate medias is the main part of this problem, with fascination of such a primitive violence they warmly welcome all aspiring perpetrators to an open stage, and a spectacular spotlight where death is a God.
Why some if not majority of American keep refusing that gun is the cause of all of these problems?! Also black neighborhoods would not be like today's if gun was not allowed in the first place.
