No, it would be blamed on Obama and his open border policies for Mexicans and refugees. :freep:

Never mind that a Texas state rep has literally said that they don't want Syrian refugees because guns are too easy to obtain in their state.

A lot of confused reports coming out from Community North hospital in Indianapolis about someone with a gun and / or a shooter there

Haven't heard anything personally but will be following closely as I know a couple people who work in the ER there :\

That noise you hear in the distance is LeJackal et al thundering toward this thread, objections about why this seeming endless parade of mass shootings actually has little if anything to do with firearm availability/ease of purchase, but rather abstract mental health issues (not including funding and/or UHC) about which they're very, very concerned, let me tell you.

For it to be a group of people (which lessens the probability of a disgruntled employee/ex patient) that attack an autism facility... the only that WOULD make sense is either:

a.) Actual ISIS or otherwise terrorists that are seeking to hit an extremely emotional and vulnerable target

No, but we're in a world where any details are latched upon by those who think Sandy Hook was faked. So it doesn't matter if that witness, which didn't mention if the scary brown man had a gun, was lying. It will become part of the narrative that this was a false flag and or grander plot.

Second degree assault and second degree riot charges. We've been talking about it in the Police Thread. It's still very much news where I live, but I happen to live in the city it happened in.

The shooters were only charged with that?!?1


Also poo poo I literally purged from my memory the planned parenthood shooting looks like I lost the try to remember the last mass shooting game.

It wasn't the police saying it, it was the police repeating a witness description.

And gently caress it wasn't even the police saying it, it's a poster saying that he heard the police say they heard someone say it was a guy with a beard.

Entirely because it's a soft target, in order to rack up as large a body count as possible. Same story as Paris.

You know that whole angle on ISIS wants the west to hate Islam? That they want to be despised so that we're goaded into a war and enact the apocalypse?

If you're going for maximum terror and hate-inception, a disabled services center would probably do it.
