The shooting is being investigated as a possibly targeted hit, sources said.
Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
So I'm not going to encourage adventurism please don't do it. Dying on your own is not the way to build revolution.
But also I have been increasingly surprised people who are fucked by shit that companies like this do don't go do something about it. Guns are amazingly easy to get in the US and information is easy to find.
This is going to end up being random or an organized crime hit rather than some dude who did something based, because nothing ever good happens, but I won't be surprised at all when people who are increasingly kept down by assholes like this start taking matters into their own hands.
I'll take the W but I was thinking the same thing too that this is probably an organized crime hit. Sad to say your average american is less likely to take matters into their own hands because they want to "work hard" and become the boss themselves doing the oppressing.
