Have to ask about the shooter, 24 /o Chad Williams.
Was IT just another mentally ill mindless Liberal-Socialist-Democrat, committing suicide by proxy for historical mention?

2 I believe one of the guys wounded the shooter but they will never let it be known in the news so they don't go against the anti gun narrative .

Given there are over 500 Million legally privately owned firearms in the USA, and less than 0.0046868 of 1% are were ever used in a justified death or murder.

It has been clear based on crime data, for a very long time, that the Far Left, its mentally or culturally deranged followers commit a vast majority of all mass shootings and murders. So clear that the Obama Admin temporarily ceased collecting National Crime Statistics Data.

eg. 2024 FBI figures show that Blacks alone kill almost 9.5x's more Blacks than Whites. Yet Blacks are only about 14% of the US population.

So the media, the Dem's, with its Anti-Constitutional anti-gun narrative are actually attacking their own voters and the LSD supporters.

4 @1 The murderer falls into the regular age range of most mass shooters and was probably on prescription drugs for his mental health.

@2 The MSM may not print it, but it will get out if either the armed civilian or the state trooper or both, hit the murderer and how many times.
The armed civilian's weapon caliber is already know, it was chambered in 5.7 x 28, with a suppressor and a flashlight, hence the odd profile of the gun in the pictures and video out there.

5 24 /o Chad Williams.

Saw a report he was a Croatian Muslim. So this was a terror attack if it pans out.

7 Boy howdy. Statistically “Croat Muslims” are far less common in that Area than young angry blancos who can be ginned up to attack a newly minted badge of Kali invasion. Long history of Fed’s playing cowboys and Indians up there.
