  1. It’s disgusting that kids and a 73-year-old man were shot. Only a coward would settle a conflict with a gun instead of fisticuffs.

    1. @Ogar Nogin again, read more than one verse of the Bible. It’s a long book, many books. Self defense and weapons are mentioned numerous times.

    2. @Ogar Nogin I feel like you’re trying to use the Bible to make self defense something bad. You need more education on the Bible and just simple human existence. You have the right to self preservation, to live. The Bible supports this

    3. Suspect Jewayne Price is out on $25,000 bail, wearing an ankle monitor and on house arrest, with the exception of going to his job. Unfriggingbelievable.😒

  2. This is why nobody can fight anymore, you never know what coward is gonna pull out a gun and just start shooting because you pushed him

    1. @aarqa I think it don’t even matter if innocent people owned a gun or not since most of the shooting are surprise attack, you can’t fight back most of the times because when the criminal want you dead they only attack when you don’t expected it.
      Most of US citizen owned gun but when some criminal start shooting why they don’t fight back? because most innocent people don’t carry a gun with them everytime and when someone heard a gunshot they run and hide.
      And also imagine someone without gun training start shooting back at the criminal they may accidentally kill civilian too, even cop with training can still accidentally shoot civilian.

    2. @Lion Ryu I understand wanting to prevent gun violence. Most people don’t consider people defending themselves from criminals. You know how many rapes and home invasions occur yearly in the US?

    1. Except he’s not the shooter.. just arrested in connection.. probably with the guy or something and has warrants.. although he was arrested for illegal possession of a firearm..

  3. It’s deeply concerning that this level of event doesn’t even make the headlines for a full day anymore.

  4. This is so tragic. A similar thing just happened in Sacramento, CA but nothing being said about it since it was a criminal that the Governor let out early against the DA Authority recommendation.

    1. @Smackslay Yeah for sure, we just ran out of U-hual trucks all over Cali because everyone is leaving! Haha this overpriced, over-political cesspool!

    2. @Maynard Blaston 6 years ago uhaul cost me around 3k to go from sac to Llano, Tx. I can’t imagine what it is now, but whatever it costs, it’s worth it.

    3. @Smackslay Man! You have lived a fantasy of mine! (Bailing)…6 years ago I thought Sac had potential to be an “up and coming city.” Well, now the city is almost as bad as their NBA team…Pretty sad But at least it’s not LA.

    1. @jim dandy it’s almost like setting a message to anyone thinking of storming a govt building. Lmao

  5. Instead of consistently and strongly dealing with violent criminals, we keep letting them out to commit more crimes. Lessons learned in books like Don’t Shoot are what we need. Thugs that use guns are just a few actually. Put them in jail and forget about them.

    1. Yes, we need tougher laws and many more guns, even for crossing guards and lawn mowers. Throw away the key Bubba!

    2. Correct we gotta put the fear into people that if you shoot and its not self defense you will spend a long time in jail or send the parents to jail for a couple weeks. They’ll beat the respect out of any teen who thinks its tough/cool to shoot in a crowd like that.

  6. RIP in advance to all future victims of mass shootings that will inevitably happen. You will have been missed.

    1. Well you better protect yourself in home then.

      “The archetypal mass shooting occurs in a public place like a school or a bar. While mass shootings in public places tend to receive more media attention, the majority of these shootings actually occur in private homes.

      Between 2009 and 2020, 61 percent of mass shootings occurred entirely in the home and another 9 percent occurred partially in a home and partially in a public location.”

      And protect your mental health.

      “We fact-checked his claim that suicides account for 65 percent of gun deaths in the U.S. The latest information comes from an annual report issued in June 2019 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The study is called, “Deaths, Final Data for 2017.”

      And stay away from gangs… cough Chicago… cough Detroit…

      “According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), gang homicides accounted for roughly 8,900 of 11,100 gun murders in both 2010 and 2011. That means that there were just 2,200 non gang-related firearm murders in both years in a country of over 300 million people and 250 million guns.”.

    1. @73 Beetle possibly….i could not find the name of the judge, much less the political leaning….perhaps you know…but if not then, it is usually not wise to make blanket ASSumptions….just sayin.

  7. When you’re raising your children. Do right by them. Don’t know why or understand All this. I do know it Starts from home.

  8. “we believe the people were involved had a combined IQ just under 70, and they both knew each other from the special needs class”..

  9. It’s almost like focusing on racial things, or making everyone pick a side and hate each other was a terrible idea. We had a good run though.

  10. I’m praying day And Night for our Country, we have to unite before it’s to late . 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

    1. I pray for that also. It breaks my heart that i probably won’t see that. There are certain people who want to keep us divided. We are divided over many things. It seems to me to only be getting worse.

    2. 😆😆SORRY BROTHER..LIKE I SAID IM PARTIAL BLIND! YOUR RICKY LOOK LIKE RACHEL TO ME BROTHER…NOW I STAND WITH YOU BROTHER.

  11. No way! The oppressed committing such an act? I thought they were all good sons and daughters and are incapable of doing such thing.

  12. Omg that’s the mall I went to everyday growing up. That’s so sad that I’ll have to have this taint my memories. Prayers to the families

  13. The judge that let him out on bail should be held accountable for any crime he commits in the future… How damn disgusting 🤮

    1. You do know that this guy legally owned his hand gun, and supposedly there was no signs that he fired his gun. His only infraction was that he did not have a carry permit.

  14. You can’t go to the mall, park, theater, restaurant, concert, club, anywhere and be safe. What a disgrace.
