Just hours after the mass shooting in an El Paso, Texas mall, nine people are dead after a shooting in Dayton, Ohio, according to police. At least 26 were hospitalized with injuries.
The gunman was taken out by officers responding to the incident.
CNN reports that the Dayton shooting took place around 1 a.m. outside on East 5th Street in the city’s Oregon district, a popular downtown area, Dayton Deputy Director and Assistant Chief of the Police Lt. Col. Matt Carper told reporters early Sunday morning.
“As bad as this is, it could have been much, much worse, as I think everyone will become aware of here as more information unfolds,” Carper said.
Though many people were killed or injured, Carper said that the incident was over quickly, because officers were already patrolling in the vicinity when the gunshots started.
#OregonDistrict #update We had officers in the immediate vicinity when this shooting began and were able to respond and put an end to it quickly.

Dayton police said the shooter used some kind of a long gun in the attack and most likely acted alone. They said they were working on identifying the gunman and establishing the motives behind his rampage.
“I’m heartbroken,” Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley tweeted Sunday morning.
“Thank you to our first responders for all that you’ve done. We will share updates as we have more information.”
Footage from the scene showed a heavy police presence in the Oregon District. According to the police, the FBI is assisting in the investigation.

Mayor Whaley said the shooter used a “.223 high-capacity” gun and had additional magazines with him. The .223 caliber is used in rifles like the AR-15 assault rifle used in previous mass shootings.
“In less than one minute, Dayton first responders neutralized the shooter,” Whaley said.
“I really want to — think about that minute. The shooter was able to kill nine people and injure 26 in less than a minute. And if we did not have police in the Oregon District and the thousands of people in the Oregon District enjoying their Saturday evening, what we could have had in this city,” Whaley said.
Elizabeth Long, spokeswoman at Kettering Health Network, which operates several Dayton area hospitals including Kettering Medical Center and Grandview Medical Center told CNN that 13 people were taken to three of the network’s hospitals, many with gunshot wounds to the “lower extremities.” At least one person was shot in the abdomen and at least two people were taken into surgery. She did not give an age range for the injured.

Don’t worry, Trump won’t come for your guns until after his re-election in 2020. After that he will have nothing to lose but if he makes his long standing anti-second amendment moves before then he risks not getting a second term.

Trump To Address Nation Monday Over Mass Shootings, Says More Gun Control May Be Needed
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2019-08-04/trump-address-nation-monday-over-mass-shootings-says-more-gun-control-may-be-needed
Full court press by the Deep State to ban your weapons….
The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has said that living with terror attacks – like the one that hit New York at the weekend – is ‘part and parcel of living in a big city’.
Manufactured crisis = predetermined outcomes. They really, really, really want your guns folks. And, in their minds, the time has come.
El Paso Walmart shooting witnesses saw ‘three to four armed men running in… dressed in all black… shooting’
Then, from last evening:
And then, after the latest shooting in Ohio:
Just like clockwork.
These shootings are staged, planned and created to force gun confiscation, punish white men and further the narrative and push the agenda to move America into a third world shithole where the populace is unarmed and helpless. I am heartened to read the comments, most everyone gets it. Now, how do they get the stooges to pull the triggers? Matt Bracken wrote a short story; “Professor Raoul X” wherein he explained how the ‘professor’ groomed and aimed his patsies to go out and kill. I believe that story has some very germane points.
The Odessa Massacre in the Ukraine was engineered by monsters like this, Victoria Nuland in center and Hunter Biden benefited most wonderfully from all those murders. This is a tiny example, 9-11 is another.
As to the gun confiscation? Never, ever, ever give up your guns. The popo will come after individuals, in the wee hours and several people have been killed already. Plan and think ahead. They (Clinton) did Waco, remember? That was a gun grab and the government murdered women and children to push an agenda.

Most people don’t have the time or willpower to dive this deep into Waco:
http://mileswmathis.com/waco.pdf
But you really should!
That Mathis piece is pure BS….I am very well acquainted with Waco and those people did indeed die and they were murdered. I know Koresh’s lawyer and his broher, Dick Deguerin and Mike DeGuerin personally, Waco happened, they were murdered by the FBI under Janet Reno and Bill Clinton.

Now this begs the question on whether the white kid is a dupe.
if the “men in black” were part and parcel of the action, wouldn’t one of their primary jobs to make sure the young useful idiot was dead so as the make the manifesto more meaningful? remember, a dead shooter cannot refute the lies being told about him. just as in vegas and dayton and CA
what color clothing to Tactical Response Teams of the El Paso PD wear? at what point in the incident did the “witness” observe the men in black enter the facility? is the witness credible or just out for some obfuscation? 2A is one of those natural rights recognized by the US Constitution.
The timing of these events is absolutely impeccable.
This obviously sucks and not sure if we will get the truth about these insane acts(actually,pretty sure we won’t).So,as always,stack deep and tall as sooner or later there will be so called “gun control”/bans ect.How hard these come into play not sure but come into play they will,how the country reacts,hmmmm……..,not sure either.
The rise of communism in America.
The man who killed 20 people in Texas wrote what he believes in a manifesto, just a few days before he went out to carry out his plan to kill people. His manifesto declared he was going to do this terrible thing to protest illegal immigrants. He protested by killing a store full of strangers, randomly shooting at whomever was in his sights.
From this day forward, if you rail against illegal immigrants, you are now identified with this man as a danger to society. There will soon be a price on your head, unless you can somehow prove you have adopted the concept that you have white privilege and must therefore repent.
Think about it, if you chose to make a terrible statement against illegals, would you not target them? Did not the IRA target The British? Do not the Palestinians target the Jews? Do not the islamists target the blasphemers of Allah? The random acts this man committed of killing innocents proves that he did so not to prove his point, but to set a precedent of aligning himself with other American patriots who now will be labeled with the terrible crimes he committed; because of his act, you will now be considered a danger to society as a conspiracy theorist, which by the way, was just flagged as the latest threat against America by the FBI. It smells like Antifa, but that will never be proven.
How far back does this reach? Consider the shift in massacres from the shocked and confused attacker to the El Paso murder who was cool and methodical in his killing spree. Also consider how after establishing a pattern of massacres, manifesto’s are now being incorporated into the timeline, each new act painting in greater detail a connection to Americans who cling to their borders and culture and guns and religion.
Expect the attacks against your beliefs to increase dramatically, as the deep state pins on you the murder rap for hating immigrants and the thought crime your government declares you guilty of not loving the immigrants and not celebrating the diversity the deep state is tying to set up for your own good.
Last night changed everything, you have just woken up to a new America.
Overcomplicating things….Occams’ Razor..the simplest explanation is that he acted on his beliefs and took the logical step to oppose an “invasion” and destruction of his country. Might make you uncomfortable but this is the 4th Turning and it will be violent……wake up. Time to re-locate to your preferred ideological area…..like this week….this conflict will be in our neighborhoods….
How far back? I would go with the Patriot act and why it was started and never stopped.
Not Sure: I wish I could give your post a hundred upvotes.
it does have that dank stench of failure celebrated that is the allure of antifa. however, it is more than that. it has alinskie all over it with the socialists crowded doing what they do.
These episodes are all just the next wave. Whether ‘deep state’ ordained, or the crazy getting stronger, or the inevitable backlash against the Prog. agenda – all are a symptom not a cause. Maybe this is the crest for this particular wave, maybe not. But rest assured, subside it will until the next wave crests even higher sometime in the near future. And these waves will continue, in escalating intensity, until some trigger kicks off the real conflict.
All the frantic calls to “Disarm! Disarm them all!” or “More ammo! More ammo!” are all anticipated responses and all lead to the same result. More division, more fear, more death, which results in more control by a cold calculating power-state, far deeper than a paltry national deep-state.
As always, I firmly believe this is global not national.
And I see a definite spiritual aspect to the whole thing. Pretty much everybody knows my opinion on that.
It has a spiritual aspect because the people committing these acts of violence are godless and lacking in a human value called empathy. They are spiritually bereft.
Jesus Himself said “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” It was an early affirmation of The Golden Rule, a concept that has suffered in a selfish, materialist post-modern world.
Educators in our so-called institutions of higher learning are indoctrinating social democratic snowflakes. Leadership demands the redistribution of wealth for those who do not earn it while the banks are given license to steal. Houses of worship are burned and defiled by queers and degenerates spouting their political correctness, driving away believers and the Gospel.
Go ahead. Tell me I’m wrong.
Spiritual aspect as in Jesus will be returning, but there’s a real rough road ‘tween now and then. I don’t presume to know all the details or timing, just that it is inevitable and no surprise to those who study it.
All the replies are right but my money is on Not Sure.
Now, one mass shooting is not enough. I’ve never been convinced that this is just about guns.
Don’t forget that the shooters are white and therefore the anti-white male narrative can continue unabated, also, those shooters had to have been Trump supporters and deplorable and anti-illegal immigration and republican and not wanting open borders and, did I mention they were white? They got that white privilege/supremacist meme to bash constantly too .
The media buries any story where the killers aren’t white, and they bury it real fast like. They had to create a new race category, a white hispanic when George Zimmerman killed little baby Trayvon. The media has been given two large parcels of grist for the mill and they will grind until the propaganda is memorized and acted on.
Gun ownership is a peripheral but important linchpin issue.
It’s all about submission to the State or control of the collective by giving up free will and individual independence. Fools like BeatOff O’Rourke are simply paving the way for an even worse ideology that will cast him aside once his usefulness ends.
Ott.
Yup.
As I read the alleged manifesto I read all the talking points for why we need a benevolent commie government who will make everything “even, fair and safe”.
Every single chance they get, Liberals scream about taking away evil guns. I will never vote for these people. Half the country is too stupid to even understand what it takes to remain free.
That’s it. Half the people in this country are to stupid ,fat and lazy to even understand what it takes to keep some of the freedom will still have. Our guns are the only thing stopping these people from killing us. If they can get people to just give up their guns then it really is over for us. Remember ,the elites have already murder us in their hearts already. Only thing left is them rounding us us.
Every time I try telling myself America today isn’t like Rhodesia in the late 70s,
I end up telling myself it is.
Picture: El Paso Shooter and Gilroy Garlic Festival Shooter practically twins
That’s frickin’ AWESOME. LOL
I’m expecting the “Jewish twins, separated at birth” conspiracy in 3…2…1…
nope. don’t see the resemblance. different eyeglasses. chin alignment differs. ears differ. lower lips differ. left hair part falls much different. unfortunately, neither one has a thirty caliber hole just below the nostrils and above the center of the upper lip. then, they would look alike…
Oh please, that’s the same person….
Compare facial outline, forehead, eyebrows, eyes, nose, lips, cheeks and chin. They are the same person. The one on the left was taken when younger.
When the government is paralyzed the Bolsheviks will strike.
The collapse must be imminent. The deep state tyrant wannabes seem to be activating their Project Orion sleepers in a fast and furious pace they really are desperate to “just get the guns” to disarm us before the TEOTWAWKI events occur
Nope. Just normal new cycle stuff.
I bet Esptein gets his 1 year continuance and they keep dragging this shit out.
Here’s your WTF of the day.
no, the first two photos are the same person.

Someone changed El Paso shooter’s MyLife page from Democrat to Republican after his arrest
The word on ZH is this was a case of fatal mud-sharking.
Perhaps an honor killing of sorts.
White dude supposedly iced his own sister for dating a darkie- along with 6 darkies.
When brainwashed white women fight for the right to date turd-worlders and DIVERSITY TRASH, it’s no wonder things like this happen.
That’s this first thing I thought when it was revealed his sister was killed.
Supposedly the El Paso shooter’s father. Can’t quite make out the shape in the bookshelves back there.
Your orange Jesus is now coming for your guns. But you can vote anyway.
