The headline makes it sound like a random mass shooting, but the article says this was a targeted shooting and some of the injuries were not directly related to the shooting:
A male shooting victim was found dead in a common area, police said. He is believed to have been the target, Ocala Police Chief Mike Balken told reporters during a press briefing.
A woman also suffered a gunshot wound to her leg, Balken said. She was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Other injuries stemming from the incident included chest pains and a broken arm, Balken said.
Obviously, it should never have gotten that far in the first place, but this is also not an example of someone going on a mass shooting spree. This was someone targeting and killing someone else.
Thank you. Indeed, a messy hit is not a mass-shooting although it looks like some. For once, it could've been ordered by someone else, and therefore persecutors would look into a more complete list of possible perpetrators.
You can basicly cut Florida into thirds.
North Florida to Central Florida - Redneck Mini Alabama
Central Florida to Ft Lauderdale - mostly transplants Mini New York
From Lauderdale south until the Keys - Mini Cuba, but probably mini South America would be better. Plus real rich folk.
This happened in redneck country.
I just moved to Miami (from NYC) and it seems like half the people I meet also just moved down there within the past 2-3 years from either NJ or NYC.
In Florida? With their lax gun laws and so, so many good guys with guns? Surely a hero prevented or at least responded to the incident.
No?
Not at all?
Like…basically every time this happens?
Weird.
But next time surely a good guy will justify the lack of any other response beyond condolences. Just wait.
When, America? When do we all work together to do something about this?
As long as the GOP/NRA has any form of power, it’ll never get done. If slaughtering children in school won’t push them to do it, noting will.
Look, if 26 1st graders dead wasn’t enough to make us do shit then certainly a hundred mass shootings a year (and beyond) of mostly adult age people won’t make us do shit either. After Sandy Hook the only other event I thought might do something was Pulse do to how many died, and it only took a few months for that record breaking 49 dead to be absolutely destroyed by someone who was looking to achieve 1st on this shitty leaderboard these insane fucks have created. Uvalde was the final nail in the “let’s do something” coffin when dying children in a classroom happened a second time in a quantity greater than 20 dead and still nothing. The voters in those counties even rejected the mom of one of the victims for office. So at this point every time it happens I’ve learned to not give a shit. I just hope we can keep it mostly contained to red states since they’re the ones dragging us down on this issue.
We do. Do you not recall all the “thoughts and prayers” after each incident?

That's very optimistic by saying, "when." It's never.
I have a solution but no one seems to want to do it.
Just another NRA Freedom Celebration™ folks, nothing new to see here. Move along.
Perfect timing! NOW Republicans will start caring about the Constitution again!
Hopefully this is related to the 12 foot alligator?
