If the shooter is white it will be a hate crime. If the shooter is “of color” it will just be another Saturday night in the hood. Interestingly something similar happen in Cape Girardeau at a ‘private’ after-prom party. Over fifty rounds fired from at least three different weapons. No one was hit. The city tried and failed to shut down the party ‘venue’. Although local media carefully omitted any mention of race, it was a black party.

Consumers of modern American media now have to fill in several blanks themselves to figure out the real story—not unlike readers of Pravda.

High praise to you, Eleutheria5, for posting that link to Mark Twain!

He always kidded and condemned the human race on our failings. There’s nothing new under the sun -— failings of the press are no exception.

Russians due tend to have different caliber ammunition in case of it being captured (WW2 stuff).

But when it comes to guns, the ignorance is studious and wilful.

I once took a shot at the moon with a .227 rifle. Missed. Should have looked at the drop chart, and saved a bullet. Even the huge telescope didn’t help.

A mass shooting conveniently after news that the ISIS leader is dead? Hmmm...........

Could the Deep State be a little more obvious?

I hold that they cannot.

I remember a Hispanic party in Brooklyn where the jilted boyfriend set fire to the place. It was so badly designed that since the one door was where the fire was, almost everyone perished. Try doing that with a gun.

Yep, all it took was something like 5 gallons of gasoline. You know you can buy the stuff just about anywhere without a background check or even showing ID.

Per CNN: Witnesses are not assisting police in their inquiries.

Go figure.

According to this, cops were already on the scene before the shooting started.

“The shooting began around 15 minutes after deputies arrived outside the venue, responding to reports of illegal parking.

Deputies heard gunshots coming from the back of the building but could not tell whether the shots were fired from inside or outside, Oxford said.”
