    Must be ISIS. Otherwise no one cares just another everyday shooting in America. We have on average 31 a day.

    dirty 6th.

    its a clusterf*** of young people just hanging out in the streets. fights, open drug deals, public display of guns, occasional gun-shots. surprised people dont get shot more often down there.

    Wasn't from a muslim so no one cares. It's gotta fit a personal agenda in order for it to matter.

    If we wanted, we could post about similar shootings in Chicago that happen everyday. Does no one care about Chicago?

    This may be a surprise to you, but Austin is a couple of hours away for the majority of the board. I know, I know, blew my mind too

    Might as well add a link to the Austin-Statesmen, since people at Russia Today might not give us many updates.

    Shooter still at large.

    And that has something to do with "does no one care about Chicago shootings?"

    They have identified the shooter as Endicott McCray. He's still at large and armed.

    I haven't seen that yet. The woman who died was a bus driver visiting from California. Very sad.

    I don't understand your point.
