Sounds like it is over, but police are still treating wounded and pulling everything together. I base that on the video of people standing around in Walmart near the door. I guess there will be a press conference at some point.

It's bad

Quote

Nearly two dozen people were reportedly killed and at least 22 others, including a four-month-old baby, were wounded on Saturday after a gunman reportedly opened fire inside a Walmart in El Paso.

Reports on social media indicate that a manifesto written by the alleged shooter has been making the rounds on various web sites.

A law enforcement official in El Paso told me the Walmart shooter is in custody. Patrick Crusius of Dallas. Just turned 21 years old this week.

Possession of any weapon at Simon malls, whether concealed or displayed openly, is in violation of mall policy. This policy is intended first and foremost to maintain a safe, secure and comfortable environment at our malls, which has always been our top priority, and to avoid any situation that could potentially place at risk the safety of our shoppers and employees.

Simon malls are private property, and like virtually every other facility in the community that is accessible by the public, ownership/management has the right to prohibit the possession of weapons, both displayed or concealed, other than licensed weapons carried by law enforcement personnel.

My usual questions:

1. Was it a gun-free zone? (Being a Walmart, in Texas, I'll guess probably no -- for a change)
Is the Walmart part of the mall? The aerial photo makes it appear that the walmart is a typical, free-standing Walmart store.

2. Was the gun purchased legally?

Assault Weapons (as defined by politicians) Import Ban being renewed/strengthened in 3...2....1! And once the are buoyed by that success they will be going after all *Assault Weapons*.

Guess he didn't get the memo

Given that this turd left a manifesto decrying the "Hispanic invasion", this event is likely to gain serious traction among the usual suspects. What's worse, it's likely to push some of the fence sitting congress critters over to the other side. Not good.
And of course, it will be Trump's fault.

Frank Castle · « **Reply #17 on:** August 03, 2019, 07:23:37 PM »

The manifesto, and it's GOING to feed the left. But..... he has point, on the immigrants and the democrats party issue.

That's absolutely going to feed the left. The only thing he puts in it that the right can use is his reasoning for a defenseless target, i.e, a no gun zone. His talk about the Founding Fathers giving him the tools to do what he did, via the 2nd, will be eaten up by the left.

Every mass shooting in the past two and a half years has been Trump's fault.

I count 34 mass shooting during Obama's two terms in office. 244 people killed, 586 people injured/wounded. Why aren't those Obama's fault?

It wasn't too long ago that I would not have thought the left capable of doing such things and trying to make I look like the other side is to blame.
This just checks too many boxes.
The last one didn't get the legs they needed.
I hope I'm wrong and this is just another nutjob off his psychiatric meds.
