Indianapolis Mayor Condemns Fedex Facility Shooting | MSNBC
Nothing to see here folks! Just another regular day in ‘Murca!
All politicians condemn mass shootings, but they won’t actually do anything!
@Demetria Karnavas Being scared of reality isn’t going to help you… good luck
@Joe Blow I’m not the one who has to holster up to feel like a man. Since the overwhelming majority of gun owners are men, you guys are definitely compensating for some pretty serious shortcomings.
@Demetria Karnavas I’m afraid you’re wrong on both accounts I just refuse to be a victim. Just because your views are cowardly doesn’t mean mine are wrong.
@Joe Blow I agree the government is a joke. So we need to fix it. There is no magic here.
@Joe Blow We get what we vote for. Our last 10 presidents are corrupt war criminals. I didn’t count… but JFK and Eisenhower were good men.
No piece of information will restore the lives that were taken…
..but we reserve the right to cover-up the truth e.g. by making up some bs about carbon monoxide and giving the murderer the option to chicken out of facing examination in court.
It’s the American way – and we have no intention of improving it. Yeee haaaa!
Time for The Onion story again, and again, and again…
Thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers…that’s all we get as we go about our lives waiting to be the next ones gunned down.
@Joe Blow I bet your solution to the overpopulation problem, is to have more babies.
Arm yourself. All of the people who were gun down in Boulder Colorado and all of the people who were gun down in this latest mouse shooting were all unarmed except your violent shooter. Obtain training and arm yourself. I have my CCW and I have carried a Glock 21 for a number of years. I am amazed at the large number of females that I see now during the noon hour at the range.
@Deborah Freedman Having more babies is Elon Musk’s solution and he’s alot smarter than you will ever be.
@T. R. Campbell yes an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, and soon we’ll all be blind and toothless. More guns aren’t the answer.
@NY Grl I cannot agree. We have seen two instances most recently where people have been disarmed and they have been victims of an armed intruder. The grocery store in Boulder Colorado was a gun free zone. The Muslim/Syrian the shooter New that people in the grocery store would be an able to protect themselves. In the most recent incident in Indianapolis employees of Alex cannot even have cell phones. The shooter was a former employee who had a propensity for violence and was known to the police. He was well aware of the people inside the building will be sitting ducks.
The heavy-metal member of the group who survived the ISIS Terrorist shooting in his music venue in Paris, France said that lives could’ve been saved if somebody in the audience would’ve had a gun.
We keep hearing that more guns are not the answer and I have to disagree. We have to look at the science and we have to look at the historical precedent. You cannot count on anybody for your defense but yourself.
Talk about COVID-19 being a pandemic, look like mass shootings are becoming a pandemic.
Maybe we learned locking people in their houses for a year wasnt good for peoples mental illness
Its still early on Friday…there will be another shooting by tonight most likely. 😑
Democrats rioting and looting
“Blah blah blah incredible tragedy blah blah blah blah hearts go out to blah blah blah blah blah will be in our prayers blah blah blah motive remains unclear blah blah blah blah see ya…”
Yelp the as usual
Oh thank God the mayor condems it I was worried we might actually do somthing.
America is built on a foundation of VIOLENCE..and hypocracy…
Your absolutely right.
How many this year so far?
It seems this is what opening up means, a return to mass shootings.
Oh he condemned it! Thoughts and prayers!
Wish we could do something but here’s some more thoughts and prayers.
THE AGENDA CONTINUES BEING PUSHED UNTIL GOAL IS REACHED .
THIS IS A NARRATIVE BEING ALLOWED BECAUSE THEY HAVE A GOAL TO REACH .
Well, he was hardly gonna approve of innocents getting shot, was he?
I mean, they were a diverse cross-section of the population, it wasn’t like _last_ month. :v
He condemns the shooting? Shocking. I thought he would rejoice and offer the shooter the keys to the city, posthumously of course.
Mayor condemned the shooting. Okay everyone that’s a wrap back to our lives….. 🤦🏻♂️
People are actually outraged by the thought of someone giving thoughts and prayers.
It’s truelly sad when hard working folks can’t go to work and feel safe, i predict in the near future big business will have to hire armed security to keep its employees safe.
condemning anything is easy, correcting it is another thing
Let’s not mention that a good guy with a gun tried to stop this man and died trying to defend people. All people with guys aren’t bad
