| Arkansas mass shooter has no remorse. |
Arkansas mass shooting and the victims. Mad Butcher has confirmed they are temporarily closed. That puts a handful of workers out of jobs. Shoppers would have to travel to Walmart or any other area grocer for food, medicine and cleaning supplies.
"We are deeply saddened by the shooting incident that occurred Friday at the Fordyce Mad Butcher grocery store, which is owned and operated by Houchens Food Group," the statement reads. "We're thankful for the rapid response from local authorities who apprehended the suspect and secured the area. Corporate and store officials are fully cooperating with law enforcement during the investigation. The store will remain closed until the investigation concludes. Please keep our employees, customers, and the Fordyce community in your thoughts and prayers."
A white man shot over 20 people killing three.
The suspect was shot but will survive his injuries. He is currently in lockup and the Arkansas state authorities and FBI are investigating whether this was a lone wolf white extremist attack which qualifies for a federal sandwich and a DEATH CARD if convicted by the feds.
The state charges also carry the LIFE or DEATH.
The suspect is a 44 year old white man from Cleveland County.
Two victims were identified. A 23 year old single mother and a 63 year old grandmother.
The reports from sources said this shooter was from New Edinburgh, a tiny unincorporated town which has less than 140 residents. He was a truck driver and had a history of criminal charges in New York. He was arrested for possessing a firearm on the military premises of Fort Drum in Watertown.
The youngest victim was 23-year-old Callie Weems. She was shot and killed while grocery shopping at Mad Butcher, Callie's mother, Helen, confirmed to us.
Callie Weems was the mother of a 10-month-old daughter and worked as a licensed practical nurse at the Dallas County Medical Center.
Helen said she has known Posey, the suspected shooter, since he was a kid.

| Callie Weems was killed. Her daughter will never know her mom. |
The second victim was 63-year-old Shirley Kay Taylor. She killed during the mass shooting, confirmed through her daughter Angela Atchley. Taylor was reportedly checking out when she was fatally shot by the gunman.
Atchley told us her mother was a great person, who loved her kids and grandchildren and loved to cook.
"She was the hardest working woman ever," Atchley said.
The White House put out a statement that said, "We are grateful for the law enforcement officers who put themselves in harm's way by engaging the suspect and bringing him into custody. Federal law enforcement is assisting with the local investigation."
This incident happened in the Black belt.
There were warnings that white extremists were preparing to "stand back and stand by."
They are hoping they trigger a race war which could impact Biden's reelection. They want to put Trump back in because he supported their views when it came to immigration, crime, globalism and Muslims.
The terrorist is a white male. His victims were Black. He was captured with a graze wound to his head but still alive and booked into the county lockup on suicide watch.
The shooting, carried out by a lone wolf, began in the supermarket's parking lot, close to U.S Route 79. The shooter shot 11 civilians, killing three and wounding eight, whose injuries ranged from non-life threatening to critical. Arkansas State Police immediately engaged with the shooter upon arrival.
To all the Black firearm owners who support the Second Amendment or former president Donald J. Trump in the 2024 presidential race, I just want to say...
"YOU'RE GONNA BE SHOT BY POLICE TOO!"
The National Rifle Association never reacts to lawful exercise of firearm use when a Black, Hispanic, Arab, Muslim, Indigenous, LGBTQ or underage teen of color is carrying them.
It is automatic dehumanizing from the far right, police unions and the junk food media.
When white men, women or even some Asians are carrying firearms, the NRA is often parading them around like they're heroes and protectors of freedom.
In about 45 states, I believe it is lawful for you to walk down a street with a firearm.

| Shirley Kay Taylor was doing routine shopping when the shooter struck. |
If you're a Black man walking down the street with a firearm, the random 911 call or the visual spotting from a police officer merits an automatic drawl of a service weapon.
Police officers within seconds are either shooting or premeditated an excuse to use force.
The unions back up their claims of "fearing for their lives" despite the perpetrator not even firing a round. Given that the junk food media loves to paint the aggressor as the victim, the police officer is given the benefit of doubt. The person police shot usually do not get any ounce of doubt. A mugshot of a suspect or a picture of a person posing with money or firearms automatically draws far right conclusions to justification of force.
Even fleeing from police with a firearm and not even pointing at them results in police shootings.
If a person does survive, the state still charges the person for a crime despite the state allowing open carry and lawful possession.
So I just want to say that the Second Amendment is White, period.

| The far right uses to debate gun violence. |
A bullet does not care about color. We all bleed red and so many lives are lost to gun violence and Republicans offer no solutions other than "thoughts and prayers" with a touch of "lock em up."
Gun violence is the number one threat in the United States.
I dismiss this ridiculous notion that criminals are the problem, not the guns. Firearms are often obtained through legal purchases.
Again, having more security, teachers being armed and offering safe rooms are not solving the problem. The problem is lawmakers not willing to stop gun violence.
According to the far right: White shooters are mentally ill. Black shooters are unrepentant thugs and criminals. Gay shooters are active groomers. Muslim shooters are terrorists. Hispanic and Asian shooters are illegal immigrants. Almost all mass shooters are registered Democrats because they have liked one thing common to the left. Of course, they often share disinformation by using the "Sam Hyde" meme as a way to denounce most mass shooters being white. They say a white person should "protect" from protesters and use of firearms are justified. They say if a shooter is active military or a veteran who supports conservative causes, they are considered a "heroes" and use of firearms are justified. If the shooters are teens, the far right automatically assume the gunmen are Black.
The Republicans usually amplify white victims. Anytime a person of color kills a white victim, it is often wall-to-wall coverage on Fox, Twitter and they force it into national news. They make the case to blame Black Lives Matter, Barack Obama, Kamala Harris, Democrats, Rev. Al Sharpton and rap music for Black on whatever violence. Republican lawmakers who do not live in urban neighborhoods often troll social media to talk about gun violence or crime in Chicago, Baltimore, Milwaukee and New York City while not doing a damn thing to stop it. If a white person shoots a Black person, the shooter is given the benefit of doubt. White shooters are given glowing profiles about their perfect lives and how friends noticed something but refused to do something. When it comes to Black shooters, automatic vilification. They don't see mental illness. They see it as gang violence, allegedly fatherless homes, Democratic policies or the need for more firearms. The far right and Republicans exploit gun violence in the Black community for culture wars and racism.
So in closing, expect more.
The website Officer Down is a memorial to those police officers who were killed in the line of duty. Those victims who don't get their names or accomplishments 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 are tracking police violence as well.
Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (Lifeline) at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or 988, or text the Crisis Text Line (text HELLO to 741741).

The call number to the White House and U.S. Capitol is now going to be used. This is the official White House numbers 202-456-1111 and 202-456-1414. This is the Congress official phone number, 202-224-3121. Please be respectful to operators, staff members and elected leaders. Your calls are monitored by the U.S. Secret Service and U.S. Capitol Police.
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. Let them know that we are tired of police officers using immunity when committing death of suspects in custody. Let them know that you are tired of private equity firms getting away with destroying small businesses and long established companies. Let them know that you are tired of your taxpayer money going to foreign nations like Israel. Let them know you are very tired of your lawmakers embarrassing themselves in the media. You are tired of your lawmakers always being outside their district or state. You elected them to serve their districts and state not travel across the country or to foreign countries on your taxpayer dollars. You are tired of hearing about "Israel having a right to..." and the bogus claims of being anti-semitic or in support of terrorism. You want an immediate ceasefire and accountability for war crimes done by Israel. You want no more foreign influence in American elections. You also want to make sure future presidents and lawmakers avoid influence from lobbyists.
