This is a slow moving news story. Many threads and threadbare information.

If only California had gun control, just like Chicago and Baltimore do, these things wouldn’t happen, just like they don’t in those cities.

“guy in cammo, jumping fences.”

With choppers overhead, cops in tac gear with K-9’s searching the nearby creek area for suspect(s).

11 shot, 60 total injured, not all from gunshots.

Suspect was in cammo, carrying assault rifle, shooting in an apparently random manner.

In one clip, I heard what was very clearly short, controlled, full auto bursts, or maybe the effect of slide-stock (now illegal).

Not just letting off the full mag in spray-n-pray.

Maybe this is another Antifa terrorist attack. They have been chattering quite a bit about becoming armed and I believe they were caught trying to smuggle weapons in from Mexico.

Gilroy grows some of the best garlic in the world. What kind of axe could this nut have possibly had to grind? Whatever it was, I doubt that it was a culinary one. China outproduces Gilroy in garlic, but Chinese garlic is inferior.

Gilroy is 30 miles south of San Jose, a bit north of Salinas, famous for John Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath, East of Eden, etc.

Mueller’s testimony flopped, time for a mass shooting to distract us.

a band had just came on-stage for an encore.

Guy started shooting, people bolted from the scene, many jumped into their trucks, high-tailed it out of there.

One woman was shot in the back but was talking.

We heard 40-50 shots, then a pause. Then we heard shooting again.
