Mass shooting in the United States. This is in Las Vegas. |
The Republican Party and its stupid figurehead, Donald J. Trump continue to allow this nonsense to continue on. They are wrapped in this partisan bullshit. This culture war is going to cost many lives.
Las Vegas police said three people were injured in a shooting Tuesday night at the Fashion Show Mall on the Las Vegas Strip.

Three people were injured in the shooting, police said, in what appeared to be an isolated incident. Police on scene said there didn't appear to be any further threat to the public.
The incident started inside the mall with an altercation, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Capt. Dori Koren said, but details of what led up to the shooting were still being investigated.
"I had just got done helping a customer and heard something loud but I thought someone had just dropped a board," said Luis Cazares, who was working at a store in the mall at the time of the shooting.
He said he and his coworkers grabbed customers in the store and brought them to the back. "After that, I heard another one go off and then everybody just starts running and screaming."
After she heard the second shot, mall employee Celora Currie said she saw people running.
"If they’re running from something, I should be running, too," she said.
The mall was evacuated shortly after. Both Currie and Cazares said they'll be nervous to work their next shift.
Capt. Koren said the injuries did not appear to be life-threatening.
"People come there to like have fun and shop without being terrified of being shot," Cazares said.
Police said they were still looking for the terrorist or terrorists involved but said they were no longer at the mall.
"We believe in relentless follow-up, so we will make sure every single detail is looked upon and investigate this to ensure that it does not happen again," Capt. Koren said on scene.
As expected, Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Gov. Steve Sisolak, Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV), Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) and the 4 U.S. Representatives who represent the state of Missouri will do their usual "thoughts and prayers", and "their hearts going out to...." nonsense.
Moments of silence, street memorials, naming of public places, saying "Your heart goes out to...," lowering of flags and hashtags are platitudes. They are a huge waste of time. It's a man-made crisis created by a lazy ass government. They are enabling this. Donald J. Trump, Congress and the National Rifle Association are a bunch of lily-livered cowards. They are numb to gun violence.
The "good guy" with a firearm is the most dangerous person to have a firearm. Matter of fact, the NICE GUYS are often the ones who are spurned by society. Bad relationships, losing your job, jealousy over promotions, family feuds and racism are typical NICE GUY issues.
NICE GUYS ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS INDIVIDUALS WITH A FIREARM.
THE NICE GUY GETS SPURNED BY SOCIETY. THEY TAKE REVENGE ON SOCIETY.
RESTRAINING ORDERS ARE JUST A PIECE OF PAPER. THEY WILL NOT (I REPEAT) STOP A "MAD" MAN FROM OBTAINING A FIREARM.
Don't you just want to scream!?
Do Congressional Republicans ignore gun violence?
We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. The next controversy would either be something done by Trump, a politician, an entertainer or we will experience another mass shooting. The next mass shooting will be even worse than the last one.
I repeat myself over and over again! I use the same old copy and paste. I hear the same trolls saying that there's nothing we can do. I keep hearing "concern" trolls telling us that it's their own fault for their own deaths. I hear the same old talking points about "good guys with guns" and "god's given rights."
I am getting really tired of dealing with mass shootings.
Every poll I put out comes with the same stupid ass trolls picking something that doesn't resonate with the general consensus. We're getting tired of this.
The website Officer Down is a memorial to those who were killed in the line of duty. Those who don't get their names mentioned in the junk food media. Also the website the National Gun Violence Memorial also keeps record of the many individuals killed by gun violence.
We have mass shootings in the United States everyday. We are the only country in the world that continues to do nothing about this. Donald J. Trump, Congress, the National Rifle Association and agitators in the junk food media have moved on from dealing with this. They're too busy sniping over partisan blame games. With Trump being impeached while in office, he's unlikely to focus on gun violence.
Trump and lawmakers elected to federal office made politics extremely toxic. It's not just the fault of our dear leader and lawmakers, but relentless agitators on the 24/7 cable news channels. They are profiting off division and divisiveness. The internet is also a problem. It's is a breeding ground for potential mass shooters. Facebook, Twitter, Google and other social media outlets have been "ground zero" for disinformation, partisan threats and social activism. Incels and social outcasts find their outlets on sites that inspire them to cause harm to their fellow human beings.
It never happens in your community.......! Until it does! Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. A mass shooting will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how "guns save lives." They don't. The only thing that survives a gun shooting is the gun.
GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.
THERE IS NO GOD.
