  3. "A grand jury indicted the former chief of the #school #police force in #Uvalde, Tex., in connection with the botched response to the 2022 #MassKilling at #RobbElementary School, finding that he bears responsibility for the lengthy delay in killing the gunman.

    “Horror is an appropriate response to a kid being shot in a mall, in a school, at home. It’s a horrible thing that you should feel horrible about until you’ve done something to make the situation better,” he said."

  16. "While mass killings draw the media spotlight, they are a small fraction of the country’s gun deaths, which include tens of thousands of homicides and suicides each year. Researchers at Boston University concluded that over the course of an American’s lifetime, the likelihood of knowing someone killed or injured by gunfire is nearly 100 percent."

  20. "The most conservative way to describe gun violence in the United States over the last two weeks is to say that 27 people have been shot to death in “mass killing” events.

    This excludes a lot of other deaths from guns...

    It also excludes those who are the focus of this article: the hundreds of people who were present as gunmen opened fire in crowded public places. That toll is rarely considered, much less tallied"

  22. "And is it not a type of social death for a young man to now be so distrustful of Texans that he would contemplate buying a gun? And being trained to potentially kill?

    If this were another country — say, Nigeria — we would call this an example of youth radicalization. In Texas, we call it “freedom.”"

    This time, I was in the parking lot of the Allen Premium Outlets mall, looking out at a swarm of law enforcement officials responding to a very American form of extremist violence."

  28. CW: mass killings, Texas

    Wait a second, I just realized that there were *two entirely separate* mass killings in #Texas yesterday?! One where someone ran over a bunch of pedestrians, and a whole, separate mass shooting in a mall?

    And it's possible that *both* of the killers were right-wing extremists; it's sure that at least one was.

    Trying to see this as anything other than "the Nazis are ramping up their genocide against the rest of us." Not having much luck with that.
