  7. CW: Gun Violence Loss

    Make this make sense. Rain (Rowan Kimsey) did my two tattoos in 2009-10, after my second wife ended her own life. She was a kind heart and gentle soul, and wise. Gunned down by her daughter's romantic partner along with her whole family including their pets. Going through all the stages of grief at once. #support #MassShooting #ForestGrove #oregon #MurderSuicide #grief oregonlive.com/crime/2026/08/5

  8. Heslin & Lewis’s 6-year-old son Jesse Lewis was among 20 children & 6 educators killed in the 2012 attack in Newtown, Connecticut. The lawsuit & 2022 verdict against #AlexJones marked the first time Jones was held financially liable for peddling #lies about the #massacre, claiming it was faked by the government to tighten #GunLaws.

  9. The unanimous opinion of by the Texas Third Court of Appeals found that #SandyHook parents Neil Heslin & Scarlett Lewis did not show evidence that #harassment enflamed by #AlexJones’ hoax claims rose to a level that would allow them to exceed the state’s $750,000 cap on damages.

  10. Horrible

    A #Texas court has slashed the $50 million judgment to $1.5 million against Infowars founder #AlexJones over falsely calling 2012 #SandyHook #SchoolShooting a hoax.

    The ruling does not affect a $1.4 billion judgement against Jones in Connecticut, but is a significant legal victory for Jones after he & his company, Free Speech Systems, were found liable for damages for claiming the #MassShooting didn’t happen.

  11. RE: universeodon.com/@digyoursoul/

    I've dug into many mass (and not-so-mass) shooting reports in the past couple of decades--I haven't been structured or systematic about it, just looked at many of the things I've seen in the news--and in almost every single case there is evidence that the shooter was motivated, partially or completely, by deep anger at a woman or girl, at many women or girls, or at all women or girls. This information is frequently buried deep in mainstream media reports or not reported at all except in smaller or alternative presses.

    It's been a while since I looked, but I also haven't found any systematic review of this pattern. I have a few copies of FBI UCR and hate crime data that I've run through the ol' RStudio and that info is not available in the datasets I have.

    If you know of a data source that might have systematic, relatively consistent reports of any misogynist motivations or statements by killers or attempted mass or school-shooter or workplace-shooter type killers, let me know. Or of any studies synthesizing the information, like what percentage of such assailants have these motivations.

    Maybe it's right in front of me and I don't have the right search terms.

    Edit: maybe some hashtags so someone with relevant knowledge might see this...

  27. "Desensitization is an understandable response, he said. But it doesn’t make us safer, unlike powerful emotions that can “drive you to act,” Acierno said.

    “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."

  30. "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"

  31. "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."

  34. 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.

  35. "Biden ordered flags flown at half-staff... in recognition of the shooting victims...

    he expressed condolences for the victims and called on #Republican members of Congress to support a bill banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, among other changes to gun laws.

    “We need more action, faster to save lives,” he said. “Too many families have empty chairs at their dinner tables.”"
