God damn, woman shoots uber driver in the head because she thought she was being kidnaped to mexico.
Not the race youre thinking of.
A woman who killed her Uber driver in El Paso, Texas, claims she believes that she was being kidnapped and smuggled into Mexico. The woman opened fire on her male Uber driver, shooting him multiple times in the head, after allegedly seeing a road sign for the Mexican city of Juárez and incorrectly assuming the Uber driver was taking her across the border, according to the Guardian.

Former US national gymnastics team doctor Larry Nassar has been stabbed at least 10 times at a Florida prison.
Nassar, serving up to 175 years for molesting gymnasts, was attacked by another inmate on Sunday.
He is reportedly in hospital in a stable condition and is said to have suffered a collapsed lung.
The 59-year-old was jailed for sexually assaulting athletes, and possession of child pornography. Hundreds of accusers have come forward.
During the assault, Nassar was stabbed twice in the neck, twice in the back and six times in the chest, a prison union leader told CBS News, the BBC's US partner.

Oddly enough, I am not feeling any vigilante justice when I learned about the incident, and I know that an earlier version of myself would have felt it, and I don't know why I am not feeling anything of that sort right now.
I certainly don't feel any sympathy for him, but I also felt that he shouldn't have been stabbed.
Hmm...

An RCMP officer is dead and another Mountie is wounded after a shooting in the Coquitlam City Centre neighbourhood this morning, Sept. 22, the Tri-City News has confirmed.
The incident happened at around 11 a.m. in a building at Pinetree Way and Glen Drive while a search warrant was being executed.
Police are advising the public to avoid the area as it is an "active crime scene."
And traffic is partially closed along the two streets.

At least 16 killed in Maine shootings. now 22 and counting
Quote:
At least 16 people are dead and another 50 to 60 people have been injured in multiple shootings in Lewiston, Maine, on Wednesday night, according to multiple law enforcement sources.
A manhunt is underway for a suspect in Lewiston, the state's second-largest city and about 36 miles north of Portland, police say.
There are multiple shooting scenes, authorities said, including a restaurant and bowling alley in Lewiston. Maine State Police are asking residents to shelter in place as the situation is ongoing.

I feel like it had been a while since a big one in the US, as far as stretches go in the US for this sort of thing.

18 people dead and 13 injured.
Well, that's America for you. Mass shootings can happen anywhere in the U.S.
Even in small states like Maine with a population of 1.3 million.
More guns in America than people.
Col. William G. Ross of the Maine State Police on Thursday provided a timeline of events that unfolded around Wednesday's mass shootings in Lewiston, Maine.
Here's how he detailed it:
October 25, approximately 6:56 p.m. ET: The Auburn communications center received a 911 call of a male shooting in "Just-In-Time" or the "Sparetime Recreation Center" in the town of Lewiston.
At about 7:08 p.m. ET: The communications center received multiple 911 calls about an active shooter inside a Schemengees Bar and Grille in Lewiston.
"A large law enforcement response from the multiple surrounding agencies assisted the Lewiston Police Department in trying to identify who this individual was and what was happening. As you can imagine, this was a very fast-paced, fast-moving, very fluid scene, very dangerous scene that these guys and girls were going into," Ross said.
Sgt. 1st Class Robert Card, a person of interest in two mass shootings on Wednesday night in Lewiston, Maine, is a petroleum supply specialist in the Army Reserve, according to records provided by the Army on Thursday.
Card enlisted in December 2002 and has had no combat deployments, according to his record. He is the recipient of standard military awards, including the Army Achievement Medal, two Army Reserve Component Achievement medals, the Humanitarian Service Medal, a National Defense Service Medal and the Army Service Ribbon.
A manhunt continues for Card, who authorities say should be "considered armed and dangerous," Thursday morning.
Card is a certified firearms instructor and a member of the US Army Reserves, law enforcement officials in Maine told CNN. He had recently threatened to carry out a shooting at a National Guard facility in Saco, Maine, and reported mental health issues, including hearing voices, the officials said.
This Card guy went RAMBO in Lewiston, Maine. A Rambo with serious mental health issues. Yikes.

^What a surprise!!! LOL. I'm sure he was an avid JRE listener too
Heard that he was committed to a mental hospital as recently as July 2023 as well?
No process in place to confirm if he owned any weapons, nothing as a result.
I'm hoping this might be one of those stories that sticks out about how utterly ridiculous the lack of any oversight there is within the US. This story ticks all the boxes where he should've been flagged.
-Threatened the base he was stationed at
-Committed to the hospital for mental health
-Family reported him as being schizophrenic
All the tell-tale signs.

It seems like most of the school shootings lately have been unrelated to students going to school and shooting up their classmates and just crazy fucks that are doing it as a terrorist act. I haven't looked at stats to back it up though. My recent memory is full of adults killing kids instead of kids killing kids.

I read that in European countries, they intentionally do not name the shooter as a practice to prevent idiots who want to go down in history in this sick way.
But here in NA, they name them all the time.
