16 shot in mass shooting in round rock

[Sue Nami]

were any of y'all there at the juneteenth celebration that erupted into gunfire in round rock? 16 people were shot and 2 are dead. it sounds like a nightmare scenario. I will hazard a guess that all future large public gatherings in the parks around here will be fenced and have gate checks of bags and body searches. such is normal life in texas when we have no legislators with the guts to address the issue. business as usual. money matters more than human lives. https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/last-72-hours

And what is the issue?
111,000 rednecks (pro 2nd ammendment) just gathered at college Station.
No one was shot.
The problem is the people

Sue,
Our state "leadership" HAS addressed the problem from their perspective.... Abbutt made carrying a concealed handgun easier than getting a driver's license. All you have to do is turn 18!

F117, yep, and permitless carry means anyone can carry with no training or license and the cops can't question them about it. this is not a racial issue knotty and it is wrong to say it is. don't go there.

Exactly where did I mention race?
Rednecks come in every color. It's a culture not a race. But to my point. It's the intent of the person behind the gun NOT the gun.
Cain used a rock.
Mc veigh used fertilizer.
I saw John Wick once kill 3 people in a bar, with a pencil.
A fucking pencil

It’s time to stop using anecdotes about people killed by rocks, fertilizer, or pencils as an excuse to not doing something about guns.

Obviously something needs to be done about people. And for people. Let?s start with our children.

Sorry, but we do not do politics here. There are plenty of places on the Internet for that.
