At least two people were killed after a gunman opened fire in a Safeway grocery store in Bend, Oregon, Sunday night.

Officers responded to reports of an active shooter at the store in northeast Bend shortly after 7 p.m., Bend Police Department spokesperson Sheila Miller told Fox News Digital.

The shooter entered the parking lot of the Forum Shopping Center from a residential area behind the stores, police chief Mike Krantz said at a press conference. The suspect opened fire in the parking lot with an AR-15 style rifle. Police said no one was injured in the parking lot.

The gunman then walked into the store and shot and killed a person in the front of the store.

The shooter continued walking through the store and shot and killed a second person.

The suspect was still shooting when responding officers arrived at the scene. Police then found the suspect dead. Officers did not fire any shots, Krantz said.

One additional person also may have suffered non-fatal injuries, the police chief said.

Mass Shooting deaths in 2022 = 278. Imported Fentanyl Deaths in 2022 = 71,000. So if logic serves, and Biden and Mayorkas say the “border is secure”, then Americans having guns is 255 times more secure than the Southern Border. If Biden & MayDORKASS don’t care about 71,000 deaths and claim all is well, - don’t even talk to us about guns . . . .

Meanwhile, from Chicago and heyjackass.com for this weekend so far...

10:00p Joyful Tally: 8 killed, 27 wounded

Bet that hasn’t made the Oregon papers.

Clearly the shooter had dark skin otherwise there would be forty posts here at FreeRepublic about this murderer as the criminal media made this story go national.

no mention of white supremacist so we can assume he was a person of color

“no mention of white supremacist so we can assume he was a person of color”

Not likely. Oregon is 95% plus White.

OD deaths were 120,000+.
I’m guessing fentayl, heroin, cocaine.
All coming over the border.

BEND has less than 1% of the special demographic. Noted as higher than average white pop nationally.

Correct. Bend’s white population is much higher (91.6%), but the comment referenced the demographics of the state.

Her response - to posters saying it had to be colored person in general.

Which Bend is the most relevant comparison.

There are more Latinos in Bend than blacks, by some 7% points.

“I see the word multiple, I picture more than two people.”

Agree. I was left wondering what was the purpose of misleading the reader with the word “multiple” instead of the word “two”? It is still a horrible horrifying occurrence, no matter how many people were shot and killed. It’s just not as massive of a horrible occurrence as one is being led to believe by the use of the word multiple in the headline.
