There was another mass shooting where at least five people (including the shooter) died. (Not to mention the one in Tennessee, though as far as I know so far nobody died from that one.) It was in Tulsa, on the 101th anniversary of the Tulsa massacre.
At this point every time there’s a mass shooting I just wonder “how did I not get caught in one yet?”
To be fair, there hasn’t been a record of a mass killings in my county. There were some around us (which includes two of the most infamous serial killers) but in this county alone all of the murders have either been personal or a robbery gone wrong. That doesn’t mean that it won’t happen at some point.
And of course because we’re so fucking used to mass shootings in the news, it’s going to be covered up by the Heard/Depp trial or some shit.
5 people were shot at the funeral for Da’Shontay King- a black man who was killed by the police who I missed in between all of the mass shootings, in Racine. I don’t know what the victim’s statuses are yet.
I didn’t know that yet ANOTHER cop killed a black person until this mass shooting happened even though it happened two hours away from me and now I’m starting to wonder how many more POC did the cops kill while we were focusing on mass shootings?
TW: There are pictures of violence on there. It only displays one at a time but it starts with an upsetting one. (No blood as far as I can tell, but the man has a cast on his arm.) The black box in the photo is covering a man covered in blood.
People have talked about how the police waited around 40 minutes to go into the school, and when they did they just grabbed their own kids and got out. I haven’t seen anybody point out that they waited around 40 minutes to save their own children.
Some of those police had their own children attending that school and they waited outside for nearly an hour while their own children were in there with the shooter.
hey make sure this is sourced properly bc from sources i’ve seen cops did not only rescue their own children. it’s important we don’t join rightwingers in spreading misinfo right now
At the time nobody really knew this, (or at least it wasn’t wide spread) but I’ll be sure to edit my post.
The main point still stands though- they left their children in there with a shooter for a while.
They uh… They tried claiming that they had the shooter in custody. Wow.
