Hopefully they will capture the thug and his cohorts who have assisted him in hiding. Lock them all up!

Because you've created a "category" for mall shooters and this one fits neatly into the box?

Meanwhile, some other mall shooters don't fit into that box at all, but that's okay because you can just not spend a moment to check on those. So I'll do the work for you:

Jacob Bergquist left three dead including himself to suicide, after shooting a mall officer and a transgender store employee in Boise Idaho. Although reports didn't mention his race, the photos showed clearly that he was a white man. He used to brag about open-carrying through the streets of Boise, and had a prior felony conviction for retail theft.

Mauricio Martinez Garcia, shot up a mall in Allen Texas and killed 9 people this year. He was a member of a neo-nazi group, and had a russian social media account where he posted anti-semitic and anti-asian posts. He had enlisted in the army but was discharged a few months later due to mental health concerns. Though reports didn't specify his race, the photos depicted a light-skinned man of latino origin, and a mention to his natural-born American citizenship was specified.

20-year-old Jonathan Sapirman shot five and killed three people at the Greenwood Park Mall in Indiana, in 2022. Though the reports didn't specify race, photos after he was identified depict a white male with an interest in mass shootings and Nazi germany, and a cache of semi-automatic weapons in his possession when he walked to the mall from his house, a mile away. A bystander killed him before he could do any more damage.

The following post is the one to which I was responding "not surprised". The information contained therein obviously has nothing to do with the race/gender/politics of the shooter. It has everything to do with the shooter's criminal history. To restate: I am not surprised the shooter had a criminal history.

Why are you "not surprised" that the suspect in the mall shooting has 18 prior arrests? What percentage of mall shooters have that many prior arrests?

And no - the fact that the shooter had a criminal history is not what you're "not surprised" about and you know it. Most people who shoot other people with guns have criminal histories, it's not worth commenting on your surprise - or lack thereof. It's akin to saying you're not surprised that the shooter was male.

That's not fair, the women are too busy practicing the world's oldest profession. 😁

You mean "running things behind the scenes" right? Because if by "world's oldest profession" you mean prostitution, then - well - you have a really sad, pathetic view of women if you truly believe that all (or 80% of all) women are prostitutes.

If women are "running things behind the scenes" then they must be responsible for all the violence men commit. So sad...

I see you didn’t mention the DC shooters?

There was an outstanding warrant out for the thug's arrest at the time of the shooting. Paddock Mall shooting suspect had outstanding warrant for arrest at the time of shooting, records show | Local News | chronicleonline.com

I suppose no news is good news in this case. Paddock Mall shooting suspect had outstanding warrant for arrest at the time of shooting, records show | Local News | chronicleonline.com

I was on the John in Publix today and heard a guy say "Ready! Aim!" and got a little discombobulated. I went out cautiously of the large area with the John and the sink preparing for whatever might come. And looked towards the urinals and saw two men and much smaller set of legs in front of one of the men. A father must have been training his son how to pee standing up.

I'd say it will be good news when the thug is captured. No news is not good news in the present case.
