China Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Bay Area man is now a suspect in two mass shootings, including recent San Francisco attack that injured 9 A Bay Area man is wanted for involvement in two mass shootings, one on Friday in San Francisco where nine people were injured and the other in January in Oakland where a teen was gunned down and others were struck by bullets during a music video shoot, multiple law enforcement officials said Monday. Campos, whose whereabouts are unknown, has a warrant for his arrest on assault charges in connection with the Oakland gun battle and is wanted for questioning in the San Francisco shooting, authorities said. Additionally, he has outstanding warrants in San Mateo County. San Francisco’s shooting was one of two mass shootings around the Bay Area this past weekend. On Sunday morning, an 18-year-old woman was killed and six others were injured during a shooting at an Antioch house party. The Friday shooting in the Mission District erupted around 9 p.m. during a block party near 24th Street and Treat Avenue. Despite the high number of people wounded, police described it as a “targeted,” not random, shooting but have not publicly revealed a specific motive. The Mission District is home to a well-established subset of the Norteño gang, the longtime rivals of the Sureños. The police probable cause statement says Oakland police searched Campos’ Mercedes Benz and found an unregistered ghost gun underneath the front passenger seat, as well as seven baggies of various drugs, including cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, and ecstasy in the backseat. Campos’ Mercedes was seen fleeing the area after Friday’s San Francisco shooting, according to authorities.

China Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 On 7/4/2023 at 10:53 AM, China said: Lots of mass shootings near July 4th is now a trend over the last few years... Fourth of July overshadowed by 16 mass shootings across US From the nation’s capital to Fort Worth, Texas, from Florin, California, in the west to the Bronx, New York, in the east, the Fourth of July long weekend in the US was overshadowed by 16 mass shootings in which 15 people were killed and nearly 100 injured.

The tragic bloodletting was recorded from 5pm on Friday until 5am on Wednesday across 13 states as well as Washington DC. Texas and Maryland both entered the register twice.

China Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 The US sets a grim milestone with a new record for the deadliest six months of mass killings Slain at the hands of strangers or gunned down by loved ones. Massacred in small towns, in big cities, inside their own homes or outside in broad daylight. This year’s unrelenting bloodshed across the U.S. has led to the grimmest of milestones: The deadliest six months of mass killings recorded since at least 2006. From Jan. 1 to June 30, the nation endured 28 mass killings, all but one of which involved guns. The death toll rose just about every week, a constant cycle of violence and grief. Six months. 181 days. 28 mass killings. 140 victims. One country. Click on the link for the full article 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
China Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 On 6/27/2023 at 5:08 PM, China said: Prosecution: We have more dirt on the Crumbleys. It's time to try this case. In yet another push to send them to trial, the prosecution says it has more damning evidence on James and Jennifer Crumbley — the first parents in America to be charged in a mass school shooting. With the historic case now in the hands of the Michigan Supreme Court, the prosecution has disclosed yet another round of blistering allegations against the parents, whose son killed four Oxford High School students and injured seven others in 2021, using a gun his parents bought him as a present. In its latest court filing, the prosecution says it has “additional evidence” showing the Crumbleys were grossly negligent in the hours, days and months before the massacre, including: Jennifer Crumbley disclosed in a recorded interview after the shooting that she paid little attention to the drawings that her son had made on a math worksheet on the morning before the shooting. The drawing included a gun, a bleeding body, and the words “The thoughts won’t stop, help me.” The Crumbleys were summoned to the school over the drawings, though Jennifer Crumbley — that same day — allegedly told an interviewer that she “didn’t even look at them closely.” Click on the link for the full article Oxford High killer wanted to shoot ‘pretty’ girls in back of their heads, his journal said Oxford High School shooter Ethan Crumbley’s private journal laid out his murderous plan, including to shoot pretty girls in the back of their heads. “The first victim has to be a pretty girl with a future so she can suffer just like me,” he wrote in a 22-page journal discovered on the floor of the boys’ bathroom following the shooting. The first of his first four classmates he killed on Nov. 30, 2021 was 14-year-old Hana St. Juliana, described by a teacher at her funeral as a “beautiful flower.” Click on the link for the full article 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
China Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 Mass shooting near community event leaves 5 injured in Seattle A mass shooting near a community event in Seattle Friday night left five people injured, two of whom were in critical condition, police said. “We know that there’s dozens and dozens of rounds that were fired,” Seattle Police Department Chief Adrian Diaz told a news conference, adding that investigators were still working to establish whether “anybody was targeted.” “We have five victims. Two are in critical condition. Three appear to be stable,” he said. He said they were taken to a nearby medical center and that one victim was treated and discharged. All of them were in their 20s, he said. A separate post on the department's website said four of the victims were male and one was female. Diaz said the shooter “focused their efforts on an area where there was actually a community event going on,” in the south of city. He said that police had recovered the highest number of guns in in the city in 15 years. “The gun violence issues that we have in our city, we’ve seen it rise and sometimes slow down at times, but right now we’ve really got to get guns off our streets,” he said. There have been 410 mass shootings in the U.S. in 2023, according to the Gun Violence Archive, a nonprofit organization that tracks incidents and defines a mass shooting as a single incident in which at least four people — other than the shooter — are shot.

PleaseBlitz Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 I am against the death penalty. I think the government should not be in the business of killing people. I think far too many people get the death penalty who don’t deserve it or are actually innocent. I think prison is torture enough. This is one of those cases that make me really rethink my position. I hope they botch his execution and have to do it twice 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade7 Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 There was a bogus active shooter call at Senate office building yesterday...was planning to go to lunch there but manager suggested something else at last minute... That's about as close to home as I've had in a while, bullet dodged or not. I'm sure the politics of some of our elected officials won't be different this morning, but doubt I can say the same for their pages and interns. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Cousin of Uvalde mass shooter arrested for allegedly threatening to commit school shooting: Affidavits A cousin of the Uvalde school shooter was arrested Monday on allegations he threatened to commit a school shooting, according to two arrest affidavits filed in a Bexar County, Texas, court and signed by a judge. Officers from the San Antonio Police Department responded to a mental health call from the mother of a teen Monday. The mother reportedly told police that her son had threatened to “do the same thing” as his cousin, who committed a mass shooting at an elementary school in 2022 -- statements police say were made to the suspect’s sister. The mother was concerned because her son is on probation, and she claimed he was intoxicated when the alleged statements were made, according to the affidavits. The 17-year-old suspect's sister, who gave a recorded statement at police headquarters, told police she was giving her brother a ride when he allegedly threatened to shoot her in the head and “stated that he would ‘shoot the school.’” She said he added that "school is starting soon," per the arrest affidavit.
