"This is a large scene and investigation. Thank you for your patience," Dayton police added in a subsequent tweet.

Two bars in the Oregon District -- Hole in the Wall and Ned Peppers -- wrote on Instagram that their staff was safe.

Kettering Health Network, which operates eight hospitals in the Dayton and Cincinnati areas, said it was treating patients, but offered no specifics.

It always comes in threes. Garlic festival, mall shooting, Dayton. Now comes the ranting and wailing for gun control and ban assault weapons.

I haven’t bought a gun in years. Take from that whet you will, but a national trend it isn’t.

But I will note that when it comes to “invasions” historically, the invaders have not tended to then take sub-minimum wage jobs as roofers.

Looks like the Bush-league open-borders homos are crawling out of the woodwork.

Another semi-automatic and another shooter with ear protection on.

Where did the Dayton reports say ‘ear protection’?

Did the Garlic festival creep wear ear protection, too?

Texas shooter;

Ohio shooter;
"eye witnesses said the shooter was white, wearing a bulletproof vest and earmuffs and was stooped from entering the bar at the door. "

Strange coincidence that two of these guys were concerned about their hearing when they are doing something that they should not survive.

"Looks like Leftists/Communists/Globalists are really bringing it this time..."

The Chicoms are pretty PO'ed by current events in Hong Kong right now.

...and then POTUS went ahead a slapped even more tariffs on them in the last couple of weeks.

Maybe some kind of programmed asymmetric attack by the Chicoms?

Law enforcement sources tell CBS News the Dayton mass shooter is 24-year-old Connor Betts, of Bellbrook, Ohio. The sources say police were searching his house on Sunday morning (link: https://cbsn.ws/2ZwzEsZ) cbsn.ws/2ZwzEsZ

Baseless what-ifs are counterproductive unto dangerous.
What if you’re actually a serial rapist with women caged in your basement? Should I call the cops to be sure?

I read the supposed TX shooter’s manifesto.
The guy is a millennial progressive who wants to retain ethnic identity. He sounded too stupid about guns to be “one of us”.

When one of our nutcases goes over the line, it’s going to be very different from these mass shootings.

I was told this by LEO about 7 years ago now.

That the place is a hookup spot is believable.

And the left is of course projecting their culpability onto us conservatives. In the ready form of Orangeman Bad.

Is the manifesto(new Zealand available some place to read) It seems I did read it some place where the shooter says he did what he did, in part to get the antigunners in America to try to ban guns and of course get rid of New Zealands Muzzies!
