Update: Ten shot, four killed at family gathering in Fresno, CA
Source: NBC News
At least nine people were shot, several of them fatally, when someone opened fire on a backyard family gathering in Fresno, California, on Sunday night, police said. No further information was immediately available, including the number of people who were killed. An unspecified number of other victims were listed in critical condition at hospitals. Police Lt. Bill Dooley told NBC affiliate KSEE that no arrests had been made in shooting in southeast Fresno, which came as the family and friends were watching a football game in the backyard when one or more people sneaked in and began shooting.

9. Ultimately, it's ALL Identical
"Thoughts and prayers" will be offered by officials, gun shills will fill the airwaves and websites with their bullshit rationalizations, and nothing will be done. Rinse, Repeat!

11. Yeah, right.
Nunes is too busy right now, kissing ass in DC. What does he care what happens in his district?

7. But guns make us safer, don't they?
Do you ever wonder how people in other countries manage? I mean, without a god-given right to have a gun, how in the world do they survive?

19. Are gang members "gun lovers" in your view?
Or are they merely criminals?

14. Don't think Trumpsters had anything to do with this
All the victims were Asian in a city know for Asian gang violence.

16. OMG!...have any names been released?
I have a lot of family members in the Fresno area (my Tia & Tio up there had 10 children). I am not extremely close to any of them but I have been unable to reach anyone yet. All my phone #s are pretty old.
On Edit: OK, I see someone posted that all the victims were Asian, so that mean no one from my extended family would be involved. Still, I hope the families of the victims can find some peace soon. |
