Aurora is where the theater shooting during a showing of The Dark Knight Rises happened. What’s up with that town?

The greater Denver area has seen a disproportionate # of mass shootings ever since Columbine. Maybe local mass violence idolization?

So, now we’re celebrating (only) 2 people dying, and 15 injured due to gun violence? 

 

Yep.  

 

Just like when a building burns down, and two people die, but the firefighters rescue 11 others, then we "celebrate two people die in a fire."

Though, we do have numerous legal safeguards against fire, and most of those are not purposely started by someone.

SEATTLE — One person is dead and seven people were taken to Harborview Medical Center after a shooting Wednesday evening in downtown Seattle.


The shooting happened shortly before 5 p.m. near Third Avenue and Pine Street by the Macy’s and McDonald’s. Investigators said the suspect fled and police are searching for him. They did not immediately release a description.

So, what did DeBlassio supposedly do?  

 

He recognized that the issues raised by the "Black Lives Matter" movement have some legitimacy. 

 

For a few, marrying a black woman and having a D after his title were other strikes against him.

Sergeant's Benevolent Association, the union of NYPD sergeants.

 

They seem like a nice well adjusted group of responsible people. Not at all the type that might take vengeance for perceived slights, lifelong prejudices, or built up rage against a common criminal suspect.

Police say 8 killed in shootings in the German city of Hanau

 

HANAU, Germany (AP) — Eight people were killed in shootings in the German city of Hanau late Wednesday, officials said. A local broadcaster said the attacks took place at two hookah lounges.

 

Authorities were searching for the perpetrators early Thursday, hours after the shootings that police said also wounded about five people. Police said a dark vehicle was spotted leaving the location of the first attack at about 10 p.m. (2100 GMT), and another shooting was reported at a second site.

 

Police officers swarmed central Hanau, cordoning off the area of one of the shootings as a helicopter hovered overhead. A car covered in thermal foil also could be seen, with shattered glass next to it. Forensic experts in white overalls collected evidence.

 

A short police statement gave no information on the victims and said a motive was not immediately known.
