If the 2 victims are black I wonder how many of these guys are going to cry about black on black violence?

All this MSM + government + public obsession over the FL shooter = everyone made the dude a celebrity = here goes the scientifically predictable next up wannabe, copycat shooter = Mass Shooter Contagion Effect (the blood is on everyone's hands not just The MSM [as usual] this time).

I was not commenting on the details of the incident but the flippant disregard for human life..an indicator ( imho ) of the insensitive reaction that society has for the value of a life..or in this case two lives.
" A run of the mill " shooting....as in... not even worth a second glance, only another two kids dead in a university. Like it is just routine.....no sense in a reaction..jeez happens here all the time...why are you even shocked this is run of the mill....shooter didn't take out enough victims in one go to make the " mass killer's " hall of fame kinda deal !
Society is sick ..it's terminal.

UPDATE 10:23 a.m.: The suspect is a 19-year-old black male who is approx. 5 foot 9 inches tall. He is wearing mustard yellow jeans and a blue hoodie. He may have taken off the blue hoodie. He is considered armed & dangerous. If you see the suspect, do not approach him. Call 911.



The shooter is 19 years old. Wonder if the gun was legally purchased. 2 down.

It really is. Smh .....sick society when two people are shot to death...and it is just business as usual ! Seriously...wtf is a run of the mill shooting ?

It's pretty simple if you don't have ideological blinders on.

Shootings happen all of the time, every day--even though there are laws against it happening. I living in the Greater Cincinnati Metro Area, and we don't have many nights where there wasn't a shooting.

In a nation where keeping and bearing arms is a right for the vast majority of people, there will be those certain folks in society who abuse said right and ignore said laws. But in a nation of more than 320-million people and an average of about 10,000 non-suicide related cases of gun violence per year (some justified by law), a run-of-the-mill shooting is one of these 0.003125% of our population acting with blatant disregard for law and the value of human life that is NOT associated with a mass shooting, which is the majority of that miniscule minority.

Does that explain it well enough for you, or are you just upset so you want to react with emotion and pretend that citing these run-of-the-mill shootings is utterly amazing?

I am hoping all them kiddos make it home safely.

While some of our comments may seem lacking in feelings we do have to remember there is a killer on the loose and i am still praying that none cross paths

Cause i do not think it really matters at this point how much pigment ones has givin he is on the run.

Be safe all in the area and remember if you are driving then you are armed. use it if you have too.

No offense, but do you do this every time there is a similar homicide?

This is an event that happens almost everyday here in America. Till we treat killers the proper way, it wont stop.

Our society glorifies violence and guns ect.

It's sad that it happens. People get shot and killed all the time, many of them totally innocent.

I don't have blinkers on..and am not that emotional.
If you like though..I can agree that I msybe have a different outlook on life in general..in that kids shooting other kids will never...be run of the mill to me. Don't make any apologies for that ideology. But if it brings you any comfort to make up scenarios about me in your head..go on with it

Well if it a black shooter with an illegal weapon you can guarantee the liberal media won't be mentioning that and may not even cover the shooting at all.

I don't no.
But...the moronic run of the mill comment demanded a reaction. Which was probably the reason it was posted in the first place.
Lesson learned though.

Actually, I think you are correct, albeit for entirely different reasons. The lack of empathy doubtless stems to a large degree from the divided nature of this society which has sunk to the point of tribalism and demonization of the "other". Pretty obvious to me this won't end well. About the best you can do is to absent yourself from the fray.

If I said just your average everyday shooting on planet earth would that have been less moronic?

Because it means the same thing.

maybe your moronic overreaction is the problem?

We will never know. And does it even matter ?

Moronic comments will always be moronic...however they are phrased.
