Apparently his handgun was no match for body armor suspect was wearing.

Like all past tragedies, nothing will change as a result of this one either.

Acquired at “some gun store”

The real tragedy is that this loser had been exhibiting signs of being mentally ill for some time. Wore a hazmat suit to high school for a week. Had a psych eval and yet was allowed to buy guns. The system let these people down, not just the gun dealer, but the "therapy" community. Why aren't there places anymore where they can't hurt others or themselves? Because psychiatric hospitals are cruel? Tell that to the victim's families.

We should tell the security guards family that he and the other victims aren’t the real tragedy. They clearly don’t understand the world.

Would it have been better that this kook never got his guns or that he killed a couple of people before the security guard took him out? I'm saying it could have been avoided. I'm a 2A supporter, but you do recall that Cruz, the Parkland shooter had more than a few interactions with law enforcement, yet was still able to kill 17 people. Policies were in place to be more lenient with troubled students to avoid the negativity of more realistic charges, like assault, that were considered to negatively affect the future of the offender. Dylan Roof got his guns because the FBI effed up his background check. If he had been committed to a safe facility it never would have happened.

I keep it simple. Dylann Roof killed those people because he was racist. And so did this clown in Buffalo. You are free to believe other wise.

Of course they were racist, but also psychotic. To ignore that is just, well, ignorant.

yeah.....being a racist is a condition in a vacuum. being "racist" IS psychotic behavior. A mental illness. But, when you are long time friends with known rapists.......your mind gets warped with "me firstisms" and thrusting forward with THE special people of the "club". at all costs.

but, pfizer and pfriends say DRUGS can cure crazy

So it's that time again, time to say HOPES AND PRAYERS and then we can forget about it.

These are the people who blather about "American Exceptionalism," but who have made us into a Third World country. Bad infrastructure, political paralysis, and 350,000,000 guns.

May 24: Uvalde, Texas

A gunman walked into an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, and killed 14 students and a teacher, Gov. Greg Abbott of Texas said at a news conference shortly after the massacre.

Mr. Abbott said authorities believed that the gunman, an 18-year-old, was killed by the police. The governor said the gunman opened fire after he entered Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, which is about 84 miles west of San Antonio, armed with a handgun and possibly a rifle.

May 14: Buffalo

A gunman armed with an assault-style weapon killed 10 people and wounded three others at a Tops supermarket in a predominantly Black section of Buffalo, the authorities said.

The suspect, Payton S. Gendron, 18, is white, and the 10 people who died were all Black. Before the attack, Mr. Gendron had posted a nearly 200-page racist screed online. He has pleaded not guilty. He faces life in prison if convicted.

President Biden visited Buffalo several days after the attack and told a grieving crowd at a community center, “What happened here is simple and straightforward: Terrorism. Terrorism. Domestic terrorism.”

The Buffalo shooting came amid a weekend of gun violence that included shootings at a church in California, an open-air market in Texas and a vibrant downtown area in Wisconsin.

May 15: Laguna Woods, Calif.

A gunman killed one person and critically wounded four other members of the Irvine Taiwanese Presbyterian Church in Laguna Woods, Calif. The congregation, which holds services at the Geneva Presbyterian Church, overpowered the gunman and hogtied him, preventing further bloodshed, the authorities said.

The suspect, David Chou, 68, is a Las Vegas man with a wife and child in Taiwan who had traveled to Orange County with a grievance against Taiwanese people, the authorities said. He was charged with murder and attempted murder in what the Orange County sheriff, Don Barnes, called a “politically motivated hate incident.”

May 15: Houston

Two men were shot dead and three were critically wounded by gunfire at a shooting at an open-air flea market in Houston. The shooting arose from a fight involving the five men, and no bystanders were injured, the Harris County Sheriff’s Office said.

May 13: Milwaukee

At least 16 people were wounded by gunfire in a shooting in downtown Milwaukee, in a popular nightlife area blocks from the arena where an N.B.A. playoff game ended hours earlier, the authorities said.

April 27: Biloxi, Miss.

The owner and two employees of the Broadway Inn Express motel in Biloxi, Miss., were fatally shot, and another person was also shot dead during a carjacking. The suspect, Jeremy Alesunder Reynolds, 32, was later found dead, CBS News reported.

April 12: Brooklyn

A gunman opened fire inside a crowded subway car during the morning rush, wounding 10 people, the worst attack on New York City’s subway system in decades. More than a dozen other people were also injured, with some choking on smoke from the two devices the police said the gunman detonated before he started shooting. No one was killed.

A suspect, Frank R. James, was arrested the next day and charged with carrying out a terrorist attack on a mass transit system. If convicted, he could face life in prison.

April 3: Sacramento

As revelers spilled out of nightclubs in a two-square-block area of downtown Sacramento, a barrage of gunfire killed six people and wounded 12, the authorities said. Days later, the Sacramento Police Department said “gang violence” was at the center of the shooting, which involved at least five gunmen.

March 19: Dumas, Ark.

Two people engaged in a gunfight and sprayed a crowd with gunfire, killing one bystander and injuring 27 other people, including six children, at a community event and car show in the small Arkansas farming community.

Jan. 23: Milwaukee

Law enforcement officers were called to a Milwaukee home for a welfare check, and found six people who had been fatally shot. The victims — five men and one woman — had been shot, the police said, and evidence early in the investigation suggested that the killings had been targeted.
