I hope a child wasn’t among the dead. Thoughts and prayers for the victims.

Yes, thoughts and prayers. The golden recipe. Every other day

Condolences to the victims, sorry for the community, sadly mass shootings will remain a reality in the US as long as guns are so easy to get, and the guns and ammo industries remain profitable, and their lobbyists have such an easy time getting politicians to support them. The country has long suffered from gun sicknesses, and innocent people have long suffered from the gun diseases. Thank you to all emergency responders that put their health and lives on line while frequently having to face heavily armed individuals, many of questionable mental health, which to me would include anyone who feels the need to carry a gun with them. But maybe to them every day is 'life during wartime'. "Heard of a van that is loaded with weapons, packed up and ready to go."" heard of some grave sites..."

This site sure loves to post these shooting stories.
never follows up to tell us who did it and why. The story just goes away to the memory-hole once it’s not convenient who the shooter is or what their criminal status is.
Same like the Asians being attacked narrative stories. Who did it wasn’t useful enough to continue that series.

And welcome to Red State America....
Where new laws allow anyone to carry a concealed weapon - no background check, no license, no sense...

So when someone bumps into you at the local car show, you can immediately show your dissatisfaction with your 9mm...
Freedom baby!

The annual civilian body count in the US from gunshot wounds easily exceeds the casualties on both of the warring sides in Ukraine.

Feel free to tell who the perps are and their criminal status since that is all you truly care about anyway. Maybe you'll feel better and it will fit into your narrative.

Fox, CNN, BBC etc all have the same information as above which you hopefully read; “Additional information, including conditions of the wounded, wasn't immediately available.”
come back in a while and tell us all about it before the ‘memory-hole’ swallows it forever.

I also hope a child wasn't among the witnesses.

Simple fact is that gang activities are a common culprit, and gang members acquire guns via their also illegal drug sources.
In case anyone has missed it, gang members disregard any and all laws.

Typical day in the land of the free, nothing to see here.

Can’t. This will close today and never be mentioned again. Unless it’s a “convenient” shooter which it almost never is.
MilesTeg
Simple fact. The vast majority of illegal guns used by gang members and criminals were once legal. Legal gun owners and gun shops were once the owners but didn't feel the need to document who they sold or gave the gun to or inform the authorities about the change of ownership. In case you missed it, they disregard any laws, common sense, or social responsibility cause they feel it's their property to do with as they will.

Define "convenient" shooter?
MilesTeg
Is this the only news source you check? If so, that speaks volumes. You can easily find out the aftermath through other news sources especially local ones where the incident occurred.
Bob Fosse
So, you were complaning about a lack of information and a media conspiracy but you’ve already decided you won’t read anything else on this story and will never speak of it again. Legit plan.
Rodney
I mixed this story up with the other big shooting there today.
SophiaHernandez
private gun sales don't require that in Arkansas.
unless its a firearm regulated by the National Firearms Act (1934) such as a machine gun, it is.

These incidents, like a fatal car crash with multiple victims, are just an ingredient in the hyperbolized media that is a recipe for spreading a warped characterization of US society.
MilesTeg
No kidding Sherlock. Why do you think I raised the point in the first place: that illegal guns come from legal gun owners.
Peter Neil
The woke culture no longer allows the truth to be told in the media about gun violence in the US. It’s as simple as that, I believe.
If you’ve ever worked in a company where the truth cannot be told, you know how it destroys the integrity of the organization. You can’t fix a problem if you ignore the truth.

Imagine no guns
