Hate to be a skunk in a woodpile, but what do we call black people who shoot up other black people? They kill each other at parties, in drunken brawls, in schoolyards, during drive-by’s, at gang rumbles, during robberies and carjackings and in alleys during drug deals gone bad. And sometimes just anywhere, for no particular reason. I lived for many years on the south and near west sides of Chicago, so I know whereof I speak. Do we have labels for THOSE people? Or does the skin color of the shooter make his (or her, but usually his) actions beyond reproach?

Not defending what this guy did, but why is it worse than some black teen popping off against random fellow black people waiting on a subway platform, or leaving church? Happens all the time. Is it racist for the rest of us to ask this question? Or to not ask it? I get a little confused on the etiquette, here.

I believe he is dead. They said he killed himself.

In this moment in time, we should not rush to judgement. Things are not always what they seem.

What's this story I read recently that in all mass shootings since... when they first came out I suppose... the shooter was taking SSRIs? 🤔

The media and DNC need to stoke this fire. One has to notice how Black on Black, Black on Asian, Black on White is so under-reported. Why? Because that is so routine.

This exception, however, will bring the tears and attention to the existential threat of “White Supremacy”... Oh! And the imperative for gun control.

Oh ffs. What obnoxious drivel. 4 White people were shot two weeks prior by a black man and not a peep from you. I’m getting sick of this crap and the dude is already dead.

What if our "oh so honest" FBI/CIA dreamed up a psyop even better than 9/11, J6, or the "Whitmer Kidnapping," in hopes of pinning something bad on a group, White Nationalists, that have NOT been violent enough?

Literally tens of thousands of blacks kill whites, and admit it was racially motivated. A very rare case of a white person (gaslit beyond belief) happens (Likely a psyop anyway), and you want him executed. What about the 1000x higher obverse, black on white, black on Asian crime? I am all for them getting swift, and real justice, but instead, they get a free ride.

No wonder we are so behind - killing because someone killed. Tell me this, if it is wrong to kill why do you want to kill in return? Do you not realize what a barbaric and stupid thing this is to do? Oh I know why - because we humans kill whenever there is a problem, whenever we don't like what someone does. We have "armies" to do this to kill systematically, and then we "honor" those who put on uniforms and do this as their living. So stay in barbarity go on, and continue the ridiculous cycle that makes humans the worse species.

I don't think executing a dead corpse is a worthwhile activity. Perhaps an autopsy follow by cremation and a trip to the landfill is the best course of action in this case.

Also, I'd prefer we don't mention the guys name.

Was the shooter on SSRIs?

Was the shooter on Adderall?

The police and medical examiners never tell us.

The guy executed himself.
