Mass shooting in Chesapeake Walmart. |
So once again, we have to deal with a deadly mass shooting inside Walmart. Like El Paso, Texas wasn't enough! Now we deal with another shooting in Hampton Roads, Virginia.
Chesapeake, Virginia is the second largest city in the state. It is part of the Hampton Roads region which includes: Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Newport News and Hampton. They are independent cities which is common in the state.
President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Glenn Youngkin, Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA) and the U.S. Representatives and Rep-Elects were notified of this.
Walmart also will respond to the latest tragedy inside their stores. The best time to attack is when the holiday season is going.

The terrorist managed to kill over......... I am going on an estimate of 10 to 20 people.
The word on the internet, the terrorist is a manager at the location. So that means not only a mass shooting, but workplace violence, domestic terrorism and the thing I've always said.
THE JUNK FOOD MEDIA AND POLITICIANS ADD FUEL TO THE FIRE BY AMPING UP POLARIZING RHETORIC .
Gun violence never takes a day off. |
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. If you're a conceal carry and attempt to disarm an active shooter, you are willing to sacrifice your life to save lives. You are willing to go hero, you could die a hero or an idiot.
According to the far right: White shooters are mentally ill. Black shooters are unrepentant criminals. Gay shooters are active groomers. Muslim shooters are terrorists. Hispanics and Asians shooters are illegal immigrants. Almost all mass shooters are registered Democrats because they have liked one thing common to the left.
Republicans solutions are more guns, blame others for America's social ills and defect from accepting reality.
Unconfirmed reports the suspect is Black/Asian American terrorist. |
With Republicans in charge of the House of Representatives, the only thing they'll offer to every mass shooting is "thoughts and prayers", "our hearts going out to", "the good guy with a gun", and their most common phrase "now it's not the time to politicize these tragedies."
Use the hashtag #ignorethenoise whenever you deal with folks who embrace this.
The shooting happened at the Walmart on North Battlefield Boulevard around 10pm. The FBI Norfolk, the ATF and Virginia State Police have announced their investigating.
The terrorist killed as well.
The exit from North Battlefield Boulevard extending towards Beltway Outer Loop (Interstate 64) to U.S. 17/ Virginia Highway 168 is closed.
The area has a strong police presence.
It’s still unclear just how many people were killed or injured in the shooting, but police say there were multiple of both found inside the building, where the shooting occurred. One person was deceased outside the front entrance.
WAVY 10 News reported that Chesapeake Police are still going through the building and people are asked to steer clear. The call reporting the shooting came in at 10:12 p.m. Tuesday. The Walmart supercenter was open to the public at the time.
Police have not been able to confirm reports about who the gunman was, but police emphasized that person was dead.
There’s still a massive police response outside of the store, with more than 40 emergency vehicles outside. FBI agents and Virginia Beach police have responded to assist Chesapeake. The ATF in Washington tweeted just after midnight that they were also on the way to help in the investigation.
WAVY’s crew is being kept away from getting near the store at the moment. Police are also urging the public to stay away. If you’re looking for information or for a loved one who works or was at the store, go to the Chesapeake Conference Center.
Walmart sits on the southeast of Interstate 64 in Chesapeake. |
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.
