4 or more people. That's a pretty low threshold. Another reason it doesn't hold water is because most of them - as far as I can tell - had some kind of motive that "makes sense". Robbery. Domestic violence. Drug deal gone wrong. I'm not excusing the level of violence, but we're talking about mass shooters in terms of a guy with no relation to the victims just blowing his top and going out in a blaze of glory. The other people on that list don't fit the bill. Call it a societal problem to ignore the others, but we tend to over-dramatize things we don't understand, like a guy driving from Dallas to El Paso and shooting a bunch of people in Wal Mart. That is inherently more scary than a gang-related shooting where 4 people are killed. Take that 4 or more stuff up with people who keep stats and make the definitions. THE MEDIA TENDS TO OVER DRAMATIZE THINGS. I am all about facts too. The media wants their own set of facts. You can either use their own facts against them or not. If you cannot see the reasons this was posted, or why I am not sure what to tell you. But it is way past time to choose up sides. I am against the tin foil BS just like you. But this goes by REAL definitions and stats. NO WE DO NOT HAVE A WHITE MALE MASS SHOOTER PROBLEM. You can believe or not. But FACTS ARE FACTS. Believe them or not. ETA: I would also add I am extremely disappointed in your take on this matter. Not that you care, but real facts are real facts, and you tend to ask for them a lot. Once presented you don't like them? This is not even twisted or special facts. It is real facts. Again VERY disappointed in his stance on this issue! 33 round Glock mag dumped into ghetto-que leaving 4 dead including a child by a goblin. 100(200?) times per year. "No problem." AR mag dumped at Walmart. 5 times per year. "We've got a huge problem with gun violence, in our country, from 20 - 30 year old whitey." |

Cops must have had something on him before they tried to pull him over. I have yet to see a cop pull someone over for failing to use a turn signal --- I WISH THEY WOULD!!! But I think they were on him for some other reason and jumped on it when he failed to signal. View Quote |

Quoted: Lady was upset they didn't give his name so they could search his social media to see if he was a Trump supporter! And said the police are supposed to give them all info so that they the media can decide what is relevant to the public! It's incredible they don't even try to hide their bias and true colors anymore. View Quote |

Probably a drug runner. I could’ve sworn I heard DEA mentioned in that press conference. Good reason why they won’t give a name right now.

"We" are our own worst enemy if "WE" can't even see this. I don't give a flying shit about they "type" of evil. I don't give a flying shit that a mass shooting is classified as 4 or more.

I would hope that all 2nd amendment proponents would be able to see this. |

Did it strike anybody else as deplorable that the Governor, Chief of Police, FBI, TX Rangers, DEA, Postal Inspectors, Sherriffs, US Marshals, and every other governmental agency in existence was on that stage...and nobody bothered to read a list of the names of the victims?
The dead aren't worthy of that small 2 minute gesture of remembrance? Seems none of those TOP MEN thought so. |

Many folks wondering why no name was mentioned or why no talk of the AR untill asked don’t know much about native West Texans. Anti gun talk isn’t popular here and the public officials know that and they have an election coming up. The reporter that brought up the new laws that just now went into effect is an idiot. None of those have anything to do with what occurred this weekend or anything that would have changed this situation.

Quoted:
Normandy1944 seems to have an agenda. That said, he/she/it fails to see the problem for what it REALLY is, simple violence. The questions we should be asking involve WHY this is occurring (on ALL sides). In some cases, it is based on profit motive and lack of concern for consequences. In other cases, pure tribalism. In some other cases, it can be fear, lost hope, or a feeling of disenfranchisement based on media demonization. Some of these guys perceive themselves in the same way as a Jew against the Nazis during the Holocaust, or a Ukrainian farmer against the Socialists during the Holodomor. They see themselves on the edge of extermination or slavery. Last, there is perhaps the smallest the truly mentally ill who act out of emotion (anger, pain) or delusion. Rather, Normandy is hung up on the race issue. He/she/it fails to see that much of the "ghetto this and ghetto that" commentary is blowback from the media demonization and blame/ shame of white conservatives. It is a reaction to the false and unreasonable accusations by media and Leftist politicians who use those accusations to further their quest for power and control.

That was on the police chief. He let his emotions get the best of him and couldn't really pull it together. His thoughts and comments were all over the place.
