One person was killed and multiple others were injured in a mass shooting during a Juneteenth celebration at a VFW in South Carolina Saturday night, according to officials.
The Anderson County Sheriff’s Office led a massive police response at the Veterans of Foreign Wars facility, outside of Greenville, where bullets flew Saturday before 11 p.m., WSPA reported.
The VFW 1790 was hosting a Juneteenth celebration at the time of the shooting, Anderson County Sheriff’s deputies told the outlet.

Headline says near the VFW.
Folks should always trust but verify.
It’s how they celebrate.

We should rename it “Shooteenth”
Animals. And yet this country continues to give them “special” days and months. They’re killing each other off fine without the rest of having to endure such nonsense.
Lol! As a Toyota owner, I love this!
“VFW Post 6089.....inexplicably it somehow seems to be an all
black VFW post......weird”
Apparently you don’t read very well, or you just want to throw shade regardless.
The article said “NEAR” the VFW post, and the linked articles make it clear that the incident took place in a nearby *neighborhood*, NOT at the post - which said they have no affiliation with the gathering.
*Reading* is fundamental, to most of us.
VFW hosting a Juneteenth celebration? At least now I dont have to care.
They rent the property for events to keep the place in business. There aren’t enough members to pay the bills just from donations.
Just the opposite of what my local VFW was celebrating on Juneteenth...
Yeah, us too - two of them including a Lexus. Hooray for Toyathon!
The headline and the first paragraph say “AT” the VFW.....you DO know what AT means....right?
I’m also sharp enough, *unlike others apparently*, to know better than to trust headlines.
