Blame Game: Michael Louis!

Permanent back injury sparked a terrorist to kill.

The president will address the nation once again about the latest mass shooting and gun violence in the United States. Nearly 300 mass shootings this year.

President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Karen Stitt, Sen. Karen Inhofe (R-OK), Sen. Karen Lankford (R-OK) and the five U.S. Representatives from Oklahoma have addressed the mass shooting.

Only 15 states and three occupied U.S. territories have no mass shooting as of yet.

Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Delaware, West Virginia, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Montana, Utah, Idaho, Alaska, Guam, American Samoa and the Northern Mariana Islands have no confirmed mass shootings.

So here we are again. After Uvalde and Buffalo, now another mass shooting where a terrorist managed to carry out a deadly shooting on places you expect. A hospital.

The terrorist had a vendetta against a doctor. So once again, spurned by life. The nice guy snapped. The shooters who were fired by their employer. The shooters who were rejected by love interests. The shooters who hate. The shooters who felt the need to carry out a plot for name recognition. All of these entities are motivated. They have no mental illness. They know what they are doing.

You're not safe in the school, the concert, the hospital, the church, the casino, the bus station, the subway, the light rail train, the buses, the malls, the local big box store, the political rally, the protest rally, the women's center for reproductive surgeries, the mosque, the synagogue, the state buildings, the workplace, the gas station, the family picnic, the food truck rally, the funerals, the birthday parties, the graduations, the wedding, the televised events, the sporting events and many more events that have some terrorist with a firearm. Domestic violence, suicide, racism, culture war inspired, politically motivated and international operative inspired are types of gun violence.

Black doctor was target of the terrorist.

The victims were identified in the St. Francis Hospital massacre. Dr. Preston Phillips, Dr. Stephanie Husen, Amanda Glenn, a receptionist at the medical center, and William Love, a patient.

Tulsa police Chief Wendell Franklin said during a news conference Thursday that Louis underwent back surgery performed by Phillips on May 19 and complained of pain after being released from the hospital. The terrorist contacted Phillips’ office several times over the coming weeks and met with Phillips for additional help.

On May 29, the terrorist bought a semi-automatic handgun at a pawn show, according to Tulsa police. He also bought an AR-15-style rifle around 2 p.m. from a Tulsa-area gun store.

Police said officers found a letter stating the terrorist was clear that he wanted to kill Phillips and anyone who got in his way. He blamed Phillips for causing the pain following the back surgery.

St. Francis Health System released the below statement after the shooting.

"Saint Francis Health System is grieving the loss of four members of our family. As a faith-based organization, the only recourse we have at this moment is to pray while we navigate this tragedy.

"Out of respect for the families, we are not commenting on or releasing names of those lost or injured at this time.

"We are sincerely thankful for the quick response by the Tulsa Police Department, first responders and EMS agencies. And, our deepest gratitude extends to the members of our own Saint Francis family who cared for their own during this incident.

"To allow our staff and caregivers the opportunity to process today’s tragedy, all Warren Clinic appointments in Tulsa and Broken Arrow scheduled before noon tomorrow have been canceled. Additionally, the Warren Clinic Orthopedic offices in the Natalie Building will be closed until further notice.

"We ask that you please pray for the employees and physicians of the Saint Francis Health System."

I usually do the same copy and paste, the poll and the obvious reactions like most Americans who hear about another mass shooting. This time I want to let you know what your tasks are to stay alive if you are involved in a mass shooting.

The terrorist left a manifesto saying he will kill anyone who tries to thwart him.

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.

There are 29 Republicans governors in 28 states and the Northern Mariana Islands.

Controversial Oklahoma governor signed off an anti-abortion law. He won't do anything to protect lives. I mean so many mass shootings and he worries about culture wars.

Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa,  Massachusetts, Maryland, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, Northern Mariana Islands, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina. South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia and West Virginia have Republican governors. Of the 29, only six of them may be willing to change gun laws but of course, they chicken out at the last minute. 

The Republican are only seven seats away from a constitutional majority. A majority that could make a constitutional amendment to fundamentally change laws.

Is there a place where you are safe from gun violence?
Yes. The coffin because you're dead.
No. There is at least one place: the morgue.

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. This good guy with a gun nonsense has to end. The cops didn't do nothing when children were shot inside a school. A security guard was shot dead trying to protect shoppers. A cop accidently shot his own. The good guy who tried to stop a bad guy is outgunned and a part of the rule #3. The "good guy with a gun" better be prepared to die if they want to stop a shooter.

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. We lost over 1 million people from the coronavirus.

It never stops.

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. I am also tired of scapegoating Black on Black crime, Chicago, Baltimore and Democratic mayors for the nation's obsession to be numb to gun violence. You pretty much enable this nonsense by deflecting.

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

Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (Lifeline) at 1-800-273-TALK (8255), or text the Crisis Text Line (text HELLO to 741741). Both services are free and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The deaf and hard of hearing can contact the Lifeline via TTY at 1-800-799-4889. All calls are confidential. Contact social media outlets directly if you are concerned about a friend’s social media updates or dial 911 in an emergency. Learn more on the Lifeline’s website or the Crisis Text Line’s website.

The call number to the U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official phone number, 202-224-3121. Let them know that "thoughts and prayers," "hearts going to" and "good guys with guns" are no longer acceptable and you want legislation to curb gun violence.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM IN THE UNITED STATES.
