Gun Violence

Makiyah Wilson's mother gave a heartbreaking interview revealing that as her daughter lay dying the little girl tried to comfort her
Makiyah, 10, was killed on Monday evening when four masked men pulled their car into the courtyard of a DC apartment complex and opened fire
Makiyah, who celebrated her birthday days before the shooting, was killed and her 18-year-old sister was shot in the arm
Three other people were injured in the shooting, authorities said
Donnetta Wilson, Makiyah's mom, said her daughter was going to get ice cream when she was gunned down on the doorstep of their apartment




Not one peep in the media about a 10 yr old girl gunned down. Wonder why?

Ken Kesey's birthday, he would be 83 today.

"Coincidence is an element of mystery because it happens so many times. It’s best if you quit arguing with it. It’s more than serendipity. It’s more than coincidence. There’s a sense of intelligence to it. This isn’t just random magic, this is magic for our benefit. Things are arranged with a red line drawn under it saying Pay Attention To This.
Everybody is still paying attention. The kids are paying attention. But they’re paying attention to the wrong thing. They’re paying attention to the loudest noise. If you’re a kid of three or four and your parents are paying attention to television all the time, and you get in front of the television
just when there’s a gun battle going on, the parents will say, ‘Get out of the way!’ The kid is going to say, ‘Look, what do I have to do to get attention?’ And what he does is he goes out and gets a gun and that’s the quickest way in the world to get people’s attention. I think it’s going to be a good long while before we get over television and the gun shows. The Wild West attitude. Let’s kill all the buffalos because we’re white. But we have to get over that attitude or we won’t survive as a nation. We’ll tear each other to pieces."

Trump said that what happened at the synagogue would have been prevented by

an armed guard on site.

And yet the gunman shot three armed police officers.

Let’s stop with the good-guy-with-a-gun fantasy.

Let’s start with getting AR-15s off the market.

Lest we forget the school shooting in Florida where the actual campus police officer didn't even engage... and the Sheriff's deputies arrived and didn't do much in pursuit either.
 
Why can we draw a straight line from blind acceptance of Kavanaugh to apologists for gun violence to militant anti immigrationists

on and on and on

Father shoots, kills masked man who opened fire at Birmingham McDonald’s

The shooting took place at the McDonald’s across from Princeton Hospital. A masked man entered the restaurant when an employee opened the door for a father and his sons to leave.

The masked man then opened fire in the restaurant. At that point, the father began shooting at the masked man.
...
Police later confirmed that the masked man is now deceased, and the father had non-life threatening injuries. A minor had non-life-threatening injuries

Authorities do not know at this time if the masked man was robbing the store or targeting an employee who worked there. Police indicate the father will not be facing charges at this time.

More blacks died in one year in Chicago than all of those shootings put together. But you’re white racist Ass never mentions black on black crimes. Do black deaths not mean a thing to you? Are black deaths not as important as white deaths? Why no mention of gun control in the inner cities?
