Isn't everyone strapped in texas? where were all those itching to defend with their freedom bullets


Also in Texas today a suv plows into a bus stop queue and kills 7, they're not sure if it's intentional yet but seems like that's what's being suggested by the media at least

Seven people have been killed in the US state of Texas after a car struck a group at a bus stop close to a shelter for the homeless and migrants.

The incident happened in the city of Brownsville near the Mexican border at about 08:30 local time (14:30 GMT).

At least six other people have been injured, some of them critically.

The driver has been arrested and charged. Brownsville police say it is not clear whether the incident was intentional.

Earlier US media reports quoted police as saying it appeared to be a deliberate attack.

That was with a cop on site for an unrelated call responding immediately to the situation and downing the shooter.

StylinRed 05-07-2023 03:29 PM

Just saw dashcam footage of it, he parked in front of H&M and started shooting in the lot, ppl started running n driving away, lucky for that cop who actually reacted instead of just waiting it out n calling for ert like those officers that arrived at the school shooting

In the texas mall shooting an Asian family was gunned down. The parents and a 3-year-old. The only one to survive was a 6-year-old. Someone on reddit posted a pic after the shooting and it's terrible.

The shooter had Nazi tattoos on his body.

StylinRed 05-09-2023 03:41 AM

I thought the shooter was mexican/Latino tho... Mauricio Garcia wtf

Wow so he was uber crazy

From the NBC News link:

Mauricio Garcia, 33, maintained a profile on the Russian social networking platform OK.ru, including posts referring to extremist online forums, such as 4chan, and content from white nationalists, including Nick Fuentes, an antisemitic white nationalist provocateur.
Wait... what? :denied:

mikemhg 05-09-2023 08:54 AM

You'd be surprised how many of these Latino Americans identify themselves as white.

This guy was a Mexican Clayton Bigsby :lol

He was so nuts that even the army discharged him, and yet in a place like the US, he could purchase firearms at will.

A shooting in Duncan, BC.

An RCMP officer was struck and injured by a vehicle and the alleged driver was shot by police in a terrifying incident Friday morning in BC.

The incident took place at the North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP detachment.

At around 6:30 am, a North Cowichan/Duncan RCMP member was conducting a police vehicle check in the police area parking lot. A male suspect then drove into the employee lot and struck the police vehicle, injuring the RCMP officer.

A second officer in the area shot at the car and struck the driver

Saw a report saying driver crashed into a parked cop car, the cop was just walking up to the squad car and fell back from the collision, the cop who immediately opened fire overreacted and will likely get a paid vacation while they "investigate"

Pretty much the ideal setup for the whole good guy with a gun thing, which should make it pretty clear how much of a fallacy that is.

Why was it an over reaction?

westopher 05-14-2023 07:55 PM

I don't think anyone knows if it was an overreaction or not based on the info available, but is there any sort of info saying that the guy was out trying to run over a cop? Or was it just a car accident?

Seems like it was on purpose. Drove into the rcmp detachment parking lot and "rammed" the police car.

I don't think it was just an accident. Photos show the rcmp suv down an embankment and airbags deployed on the driver's suv so he'd have to have been going at a decent clip.

An officer who got hit needed to be transported to hospital.

Also why reach into the back of the suv like that? Maybe he wanted to suicide by cop or something.

westopher 05-14-2023 09:25 PM

With the info at hand I'd say any speculation is just that. It's Duncan. Guy was probably high as fuck on meth and just drove his car down an embankment. Guy could have been grabbing his backpack to run without even knowing what he hit. Everything is speculation.
As usual, when it's less than as exciting as the first story, we will never hear about it again.

You run up to a car crash guns blazing? So what if he was outside the car rummaging in his backseat? Post collision you could be checking on your car or items you had stored in the back or you could be pulling out an emergency kit, how is that not an overreaction

Edit: hell he could've been checking on a kid in a baby seat for all we know, u don't just start blasting asap

68style 05-15-2023 01:56 PM

Fuck that, a guy drives his SUV into a private lot and rams a police vehicle... that's enough intent to injure already, this wasn't an "accident" that's crazy talk.

He's reaching into the back seat after, I'm not waiting around to see if he's putting out a reflective triangle.

He isn't dead, it wasn't lethal force, so what are you complaining about? Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
