Bringing up a “mass” shooting or not obfuscates the hosed up part of all this: somebody starting firing off in the middle of public space.

yeah the actual number of deaths from public shootings is small in comparison to total gun deaths, and laughably small in comparison to Covid deaths, so the actual quantity of death can’t really be what people are most frightened of. it’s the randomness and chaos and constant reminder that no where and no one is safe. it’s identical to why people care about terrorism.

It feels a lot like we should just be calling it "terrorism" but everyone is too chicken poo poo to put that on the table.

And completely unwilling to prosecute it because it's all right-wing nutjobs.

We only get maps designed to convince us there’s no issue for problems that those in power want us to ignore. They absolutely want us to be panicking over mass shootings because “guns for poors bad” is a foundational Democratic principle which they’re counting on to drive midterm turnout. Any official mass shooting map would be bright red.

I knew exactly what he was going to look like, and


*chef's kiss* that is utterly the archetypal white mcdojo libertarian that everybody knows a couple of, who inevitably also has a side hustle branded "security", that mostly amounts to rubber stamping certs for carry permits, and occasionally offering GREAT deals on one-on-one training time to groom students because the guy is ALWAYS a sex pest

I utterly believe some christian charity owner thought that guy was a nice young man, and paid him to scare the absolute gently caress out of their minimum wage and or volunteer workforce, without bothering to even plug his name into arrests.org or google

LIVE: Man wanted for multiple shootings across Memphis

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WREG)– Memphis Police are warning people to be on the lookout for a man who is wanted for multiple shootings across the city.

Police initially said the man is occupying a light blue Infiniti with a red dealer tag and a rear window busted out. They now believe the gunman is in a gray Toyota SUV.

He is armed and dangerous.

Police say they receiving reports that they are recording his actions on Facebook. They have not identified the 19-year-old suspect but they have released a photo of him.

Police do not have a specific location at this time but they are responding.

Call 911 immediately if you have any information.

LIVE: Man wanted for multiple shootings across Memphis
Woman injured after shooting near I-240 ramp
Man dead after shooting in South Memphis

Before the alert was issued, there were two separate shootings in South Memphis. A man was killed in a shooting at South Parkway East around 4:35 p.m. One minute later, a woman was injured in a second shooting on Norris Road near I-240.

Police have not officially confirmed if the suspect is responsible for those two shootings at this time.

I was at work not far from there when I first heard this, a coworker's grandmother texted her to warn her. I also live not far from there, so I guess I'll be listening for gunshots.

Intensity of local violence is gonna be a metric they stick on a weather report next to COVID/flu and allergy forecasts


Today's forecast is for scattered clouds and 89F with light winds. A gunman is hunting for new prey, so be on the lookout. Forecasters predict this gunman to be of the incel variety, so women are advised to stay off the streets... and pack those umbrellas folks because there's rain in the forecast for next week!
