Hi Randy, can I include your pictures in my story for JOE with a full credit?
You’re racist af and this was the result of some dispute that took place during the event 2 people fighting with guns. That’s not because a race that’s another issue itself
#FakeNews It's not a mass shooting unless there are at least three killings as defined by the FBI.
You just defined mass *killing*. A mass shooting is when 4 or more people are shot regardless of whether or not they are killed. Now slither back under your rock.
Wrong. That isn't a widely-accepted term unless you're Snopes, HuffPo, or some other liberal rag. Note I referenced the FBI.
How can you reference the FBI when the FBI itself hasn't defined the term? You're conflating what they *have* defined (active shooter & mass killing/murder) with the methodology of how other groups define it. You're either lying or you're ignorant. Neither one is a good look.
I'll give you something to read, but I doubt you will...https://www.rand.org/research/gun-policy/analysis/supplementary/mass-shootings.html …
Once again, innocent people were gunned down while enjoying a nice evening, but the news hardly notices because, at the same time, families on our borders trying to legally apply for asylum are being treated like criminals w/children separated from their parents.
I know a guy who was shot over $10 right around the corner from there in broad daylight. I can't imagine who thought a 24 hour festival there was a good idea
It was it's 12th year. For some reason this one was tragic.
*correction ANOTHER "mass shooting" Some of us keep saying #NeverAgain while the rest of us ignore/dismiss or excuse it as a consequence of the violent society we live in. Some use it to justify more guns. It is illogical to continue arming a violent society. This is an epidemic.
Doesn’t NJ have some of the strictest gun laws in the country tho? Having a handgun to defend yourself and others in this situation seems only logical to me. But it’s just an opinion and I’m sure you aren’t interested in logical thinking
