It has been 4... 0 days since the last mass shooting official shooting thread

[Transhuman]

This week, Jones acknowledged the shooting was real...

That's really big of him to admit that he was wr-

...during a sworn deposition he made as part of a defamation case brought against him by Sandy Hook victims' families.

Holy shit, my mother is in the Paso (vacations and shopping). I just called her and she said they were close to the Walmart where the shooting happened (but they decided not to enter). Fuckfuckfuck

You got her on the phone, they're aware of the situation. It should be fine.

Thanks man. I m really fucking scared.

[VomKriege]

Authorities will only confirm much later for obvious reasons but it would seem the El Paso shooting is over.
- CCTV capture of a suspect entering the Walmart with an AK pattern rifle, ear and eye protections.
- Possibly a manifesto of the shooter on 8chan. Unconfirmed but mention the reference model of the "civilian" version of the AK sold in the US. Otherwise the manifesto is exactly the sort of  shit you'd expect.
- One or three people in custody though it's unclear if it is confusion, accomplices or armed citizens who drew to defend themselves.
- Maybe 18 fatalities and up to 20 wounded, including 10 severely.

[ToxicAdam]

It will be a white male 18-24 with some signs of mental illness.

[Nintex]

The manifesto, if real is certainly something.

- The Democrats and Republicans have both failed by handing the US to corporations 
- The corporations allow for uncontrolled migration which means the hispanic voters will replace the boomer voters 
- Also it will make the economic problems that arise from automation so much worse 
- The attack is poorly prepared but a poorly prepared attack is better than no attack according to the shooter 
- Shooter writes he's not a white supremacist and it has nothing to do with any presidential candidates (including Trump) 
- Race mixing is bad and the US should be split in a confederacy with a state for each race 

It sorta reads like a longform kirblar post

[Madrun Badrun]

It's strangely close to the platform of Andrew Yang, with a slice of InfoWars I suppose?

[Joe Molotov]

I can’t believe The Lorax was cited in a mass shooter’s manifesto. Zoomers might be the worst generation.

There's also the part he mentions COD and how it is better to target low security areas or 'low hanging fruit'.

It’s interesting that many of the comments are “DO SOMETHING” when Gilroy is in California which has definitely  “done something” and has among the strictest gun laws in the country. Still didn’t stop the shooting from happening. “Not strict enough!” right?

Until disaffected young men with red  flags aren’t given care they need and the media stops advertising the shootings like an arcade score board these will continue to happen.

As for her argument it’s that common to be in shootings in America, is that really the case? Isn’t the reason we are always so shocked these things keep happening because they’re actually rare? I’m definitely not scared to go outside. This isn’t 1990’s Colombia.

America’s healthcare issue also ties into the shootings. Why seek therapy and a psychiatrist when they’re tied to healthcare? Unfortunately conservatives will continue to spout “mental health!” without actual healthcare overhaul.

Hypocrites, everyone.

Protecting the US by shooting brown people that were shopping in Walmart. Fucking scumbag.

Crime is down but white supremacist attacks are up.

I don’t really have the luxury to ignore white supremacists do their thing. American intelligence says that white domestic terrorism is currently the biggest obstacle to domestic safety. As a racial minority the least you can do is carry to shoot them dead in case you need to as a last resort.

Agree to disagree. When it comes to white supremacists I’m not taking any chances. Especially since I’m from the south.

You can say it’s statistically not likely to happen, but given history you’d be dumb to not take it seriously as a black person in America. That’s all I’ll say about that.

[Boredfrom]

Being sincere, I kind of want to learn how to use a gun after this even if, rationally, doesn’t help at all and didn’t even happen on my own nation.

Also, CNN just name dropped 8chan.

Statistically you're far more likely to kill yourself with it while sad than shooting a guy who was about to kill you

And like I said, I know is not going to help at all. Is not a rational sentiment.

Does he realize that the guy surrender himself  and cops want information from him? You know, getting information about the motives of a mass shooter, given the propensity of those scumbags of killing themselves before facing any legal repercussion. But nah... let’s superficially bitch about the police even when they are, for once, investigating this as domestic terrorism.

Nine people are dead after shooting incident in Dayton, Ohio, according to police. Dayton Police say the suspect in the incident also is dead. Sixteen additional people were injured in the incident.

Carper said multiple officers happened to be in the immediate vicinity when the shooting happened, which led to the incident being resolved in a very short period of time.

"For that, we are very fortunate,” Carper said.

Best case scenario here!

terrorist attack my ass

Change your fucking gun laws morons

rip

[headwalk]

guns are both cool and fascinating. i'd love to own a bunch of them and go out shooting whenever i want. went to a range as part of a tunnel complex in vietnam and got to fire off an m1 garand and ak47 and it was fun as hell. the argument that they're satanic devices and anyone who appreciates or enjoys them is a mass murderer in waiting doesn't help anyone.

but fucking hell, you shouldn't be able to just buy and walk around with those things. that's mental.

[ToxicAdam]

Mass shootings are just an offshoot of the suicide epidemic.

A toxic soup created by: poor access to mental health care for people at-risk, poor gun control laws that give too many people access to guns and a nation that is too stubborn and normalized to violence to change it.

I don’t think just attacking one aspect changes our culture. You have to do all three.

I agree with Shaun King that this shit should be covered as terrorism in the media more often. Especially when the shooters have manifestos and are explicitly white nationalist.

It's really fucking wild that America is at a place where terrorists are going around the country killing people because of the president talking shit on Twitter.

There is a huge gulf of disparity between people being trained/fronted by a terrorist organization and a lonely, depressed  20 something that commits public suicide.

[ToxicAdam]

eh, I think you’re giving too much weight to a suicide note from a mentally ill person who’s brain hasn’t even fully developed yet.

If these dudes were affiliated with Proud Boys or some shit organization like that, then I’d totally agree with you. But they’re just wading through the same shit culture we are and trying to give their failure at living some kind of grandiose justification. Classic narcissism.

I think hate crime is a better descriptor.

You don't need to be part of a big organization to commit acts of terrorism. When these dudes have manifestos laying out political reasons for doing this shit, it's terrorism in the most literal definition. It doesn't have to be political, any ideological reasoning for mass shooting events makes it terrorism.

A big part of ISIL's strategy is spreading ideological material online to induce young men to "self-radicalize" and commit terror attacks under their own initiative. Omar Mateen for example.
