Blame Game: Salvador Ramos!

Another 18 year old man kills.

The suspect is now deceased, the junk food media is now trying to piece together the motives of how this 18-year old man decided to massacre dozens of innocent lives.

While I am done talking about how these mass shootings are a part of America, I want to know how many other mass shooting happen after this? 

President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Karen Abbott, Sen. Karen Cornyn (R-TX), Sen. Karen Cruz (R-TX), the U.S. representatives of Texas and many of the state legislators will react to the mass shooting in the very typical fashion.

Shock.

Thoughts and prayers.

Our hearts going out to the victims of this shooting....

Terrorism in America.

The same word vomit that continues to burden America. Then of course, the conspiracy theorists who often equate issues like the U.S.-Mexican border, culture wars, Muslims, Black Lives Matter, call the victims or dead crisis actors, blame Republican and Democratic lawmakers, political rhetoric and baseless guilty shaming will come to play.

An active shooter doesn't care about the politics, race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, your finances, your family, your plans that day, your successes, your failures, and most importantly, your life.

The shooter is motivated within seconds to take out as many people as he/she can.

What to do to protect your life.

1. Run - If you hear sounds like firecrackers, popping sounds or suspicious activities around a large gathering (i.e. malls, stores, clubs, public gatherings), if you can flee, run away from the shooter. Do not run in a straight path of the sight. Move around and zig-zag if possible to keep yourself out the line of fire. It's best to not film a shooter commiting the act. If you are willing to risk your life for a viral video, more power to you but its best to stay out of the line of fire by running away.

2. Hide - If you are involved in an active shooting, you must barricade yourself in a room and keep doors locked, lights off, phones on silent. Do not go into restrooms, lockers and kitchens. Those are most likely places where shooters often go. If you can barricade a room to prevent a shooter from getting in, it eliminate the opportunity for the shooter to get through. Make sure you keep your voice low when you're involved in mass shooting. Call 9-1-1 if you can.

3. Fight - If you are willing to risk your life or willing to film the incident, you have no choice but to fight. Make sure you grab something that is powerful enough to disarm a shooter. Do not confront a shooter in the midst of sight. Make yourself not visible if you're trying to fight. Do not think being a "good guy with a gun" is going to stop a bad guy. The cops don't see good guys trying to stop bad guys. They see active shooters and they will shoot anyone who is armed regardless of the matter. If you're ready to fight, be prepared to die. It's best to not be easily seen if you're trying to stop a shooter. But if you are willing to go hero, you could die a hero or an idiot.


The mass shootings affect everyone's lives.

Abbott identified the suspected terrorist, who he said was a local to Uvalde. 

The city is about 85 miles west of San Antonio.

Uvalde County police said at a press conference that investigators believe the suspect had acted alone. 

Biden will address the shooting.

Abbott said that the terrorist entered the school with a handgun and possibly a rifle, and opened fire. The governor added that it is believed responding officers shot and killed the terrorist.

"He shot and killed, horrifically, incomprehensibly, 14 people, students, and killed a teacher," Abbott said. "It is believed that responding officers killed him." He added that two officers were shot and wounded but were expected to survive. 

An unidentified number of people remain hospitalized with injuries.

Abbott will face heat.

Robb Elementary School has an enrollment of just under 600 students and Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District Chief of Police Pete Arredondo said it serves students in the second, third and fourth grade. He did not say what grades the children that were shot are in.

It was the deadliest school shooting in Texas history and occurred four years after a gunman fatally shot 10 people at Santa Fe High School in the Houston area.

A Uvalde Police Department dispatcher said the scene was still active and that no other information was immediately available. As of Tuesday afternoon, the school had a heavy law enforcement presence including police and FBI agents. 

Rep. Karen Gonzalez (R-TX) said that he will proudly defend the Second Amendment. He now respond to the tragedy in his own district.

The district said that the city's civic center will be used as a reunification center and that parents will be able to pick up their children there once everyone is accounted for.

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said President Joe Biden, who is returning from a multi-day trip in Asia, has been briefed. He will deliver remarks on the shooting at 8:15 p.m. EDT.

Biden ordered that flags be flown at half-staff at all public buildings until sunset on Saturday.

Is there any place safe from gun violence?
There are places where you are safe from gun violence.
There are no places at all. All the places are targets for gun violnece.

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.

Gun violence happens in the U.S. almost everyday.

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.
