Blood Trails: Mass Shootings Everywhere In America!


The far right already associating the terrorist responsible for the mass shooting in New York City as a part of Black Lives Matter, President Joe Biden and Democrats. So from now on, anytime a mass shooter is identified as Black, Muslim, Hispanic, a member of the LGBTQ community or a former professor, they will blame people or groups who lean Democrat or progressive. They will associate people who have nothing to do with the actions of these mass shooters.

Trolling and the blame game is common in politics. The far right and far left agitators  engage in this behavior relentlessly. Neither are detectives, forensic experts, doctors, psychologists or the victims of the incident. I can only imagine that if you're a victim of gun violence, I would expect you're likely supporting measures to control it.

These folks are trolls who make it hard to get information out to America. They are not helpful.

Okay, Brooklyn is the talk of the nation. The Russian invasion of Ukraine is still the talk of the nation. Inflation is the talk of the nation. I listened to progressive agitator Thom Hartmann. He said that the junk food media loves chaos. He said that "if it bleeds, it leads."

Mass shootings are a part of America. It is simple, we have a gun violence epidemic. 

About 145 people are killed a day by firearms. Gun violence comes from criminal acts, police shootings, accidental shootings, suicide and reckless engagement.

The mass shooting in Brooklyn, New York has a person of interest who may be connected to the terrorist act.

The mass shootings in Dallas. There were two mass shootings in less than three weeks.

According to the Dallas Police Department, officers responded to a shooting at an unpermitted trail ride and concert in the 5000 block of Cleveland Road at approximately 12:13 a.m.

As of Monday afternoon, officers confirmed that 16 people were shot including four juveniles. A 17th person was also hurt but was not injured in the shooting.

The victim who died was 26-year-old Kealon Gilmore

Injured at the event:

20-year-old Christian Adams
22-year-old Jazmin Anderson
24-year old Randy Davis
25-year-old Forlando Dean
29-year-old Breanna Gray
24-year-old Ashley Jones
24-year-old Willie Martin
22-year-old Madison May
18-year-old Jamal Rylander
29-year-old Terra Starks
24-year-old Sebastian Williams
13-year old victim
14-year-old victim
14-year-old victim
15-year-old victim
18-year-old Raquel Simon was injured, not from the shooting.

The conditions of the survivors and the nature of their injuries are not immediately known.

Dallas Chief of Police Eddie Garcia said Monday afternoon that seven off-duty officers were said to be working at the event but that they left before the outbreak of violence.

A preliminary investigation determined that at the event one individual fired a gun into the air and another individual fired a gun into the crowd, police said.

The mother of the man killed in the shooting told NBC 5 her son rarely attended large gatherings but said he felt safe because the concert promoted the presence of Dallas Police at the concert.

Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson said the shooting was "horrific and unacceptable" and that he was hopeful those responsible will be arrested.

"I am praying for the victims, and I look forward to our police department bringing those responsible to justice," Johnson said. "Public safety remains our top priority, and I will be conferring with Police Chief Eddie Garcia to see what more can be done to stop this kind of violence in our city.”

So far, police have not named any suspects or announced any arrests. The investigation into the shooting is ongoing.

This is the second shooting of this severity to occur in Southern Dallas in the last three weeks. Dallas Police have not said if the shootings are connected.

At least 10 people were injured and one person died on March 19 when someone opened fire outside an event center in Dallas, police said. The shooting occurred in the 5200 block of Botham Jean Boulevard at a venue called The Space Dallas. Police said a crowd of more than 1,000 people were at the venue, both inside and outside, when someone fired at least 30 shots, hitting at least 10 people.

"I really want them to catch who's doing this because innocent people are getting hurt," said Dominique Wilson whose 18-year-old son, Anthony, was killed at the shooting last month.

She heard the news of what happened on Sunday, which instantly brought back many memories of what she recently experienced.

"When I saw that video of what happened at the trail ride it brought tears to my eyes," said Wilson. "These are innocent people, these innocent young adults that do not deserve any of this."

The mass shooting in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

A 32-year old man is charged with second-degree murder, willful injury, intimidation with a dangerous weapon, reckless use of a firearm and possession of a firearm as a felon.

Michael Valentine, 25, and Nicole Owens, 35, were identified as the two people killed in the shooting.

Police responded to the Taboo Nightclub Lounge at 415 3rd Street SE around 1:27 am Sunday morning. Cedar Rapids Police Chief Wayne Jerman said that officers were standing outside of the club when a rush of people exited, fleeing the shooting. 911 dispatchers started receiving calls about the incident at around the same time. Officers went inside the club to find the 12 total victims and started administering first aid to the injured.

Jerman said that evidence leads investigators to believe that there was more than one shooter involved. He later said that they believe “both shooters” were male. No clear motive has been determined at this stage of the investigation, though Jerman said that police do not believe it was a “gang-related incident.” Police also said that there was no wider threat to the public at large despite the lack of arrests, calling it a “targeted incident.”

Police believe that all of the injuries were related to the shooting, whether from direct gunshot wounds or shrapnel. He said there were no indications at this time that injuries were caused by the stampede of people exiting the club.

Taboo was hosting a “return of the Mac” 90s themed bash Saturday night, according to social media promotions. Police estimate that around 100 to 150 people were inside the club at the time of the shooting. Modteets Williams, Jr., the club’s owner, told KCRG-TV9 the club is “doing everything we can to cooperate with police.”

Jerman said that he could not recall a recent uptick in calls for service to the nightclub’s location. According to police call logs over the past year, there have been at least two incidents involving guns and one assault reported at the nightclub. Most of the times that police visited the location, however, were for routine bar checks.

The mass shooting in Victorville, California.

The Victorville Police Department identified him as 20-year man who is the co-owner of Sole Addicts.

He was chasing two shoplifters out of his store and fired multiple shots at them, but the gunshots missed and struck the child, according to police.

Police said the suspect fled the mall after the shooting around 6:30 p.m. and was later found by Nevada Highway Patrol around 9 p.m.

He has been booked at the Clark County Jail on an extraditable warrant, for attempted murder, in the amount of $1,000,000, police said.

The 9-year-old girl was treated at the scene and transported to Loma Linda University Medical Center. The girl’s aunt, Crystal Moraga, tells KTLA that the girl was shot in the arm and is doing okay.

Does America have a gun violence problem?
Yes
No

Every community in the United States will eventually have a legacy. A legacy of tragedy. Gun violence and COVID-19 will affect your town, your family and your life. So I don't want to hear that bullshit about how gun reform is taking away your rights to own firearms. 

I don't want to hear that protesting against police killing people of color is hate on cops in general. I don't want to hear talk about the coronavirus being a myth. 

When you hear folks say "gun rights," what they really mean is that its white privilege.  


I don't want to hear folks say masks and vaccine mandates impede their freedoms. It prevents a deadly outbreak from spreading. If you want to die from the coronavirus, that's on you.

I don't want to hear the shit about guns saving lives. Cause a bullet does not have eyes and it's always likely gonna hit a target. These folks seem to not get it. These incidents are a tragic part of American history. Thoughts and prayers and your heart going out to the victims is not enough. It quite frankly is an insult.

President Joe Biden is trying to curb gun violence. However, he has no support from Republicans. Most Democrats and America are for gun control measures. However the two Democrats in the Senate refuse to change the filibuster rules and its holding us back. 

The National Rifle Association is always pushing against it. They will not relinquish from the narrative that guns are not saving lives. The Republicans aided by a fickle junk food media are openly encouraging anarchy and disruption in a desperate attempt for the Republicans to win back Congress and the White House. These agitators are calling for Biden to curb crime but will not help him. They want more guns on the street. It makes no sense.

So in closing, expect more.

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.
