US authorities really know how to keep their population down over there just allow the general populace access to all the killing devices they want, simple.!!!

What about your newest higher after masturbating on live tv?

How is that defunding the police working out for you Austin?

Corrupt British colonialism, against changing the governor of the Central Bank of Libya.. Britain supports the corrupt central bank governor in Libya in his position

Texas answer? Give them more guns.

by not banning firearms the US allows the indiscriminate killing of its citizens because of some outdated laws to bear arms. Wake up America

Again. White House is only lack of the efforts in pandemic virus control to take care of its people's health, but also lack of efforts in guns control to take care of its people's security. But at this moment, White House is interested in the business of China and its Taiwan pro.

GunReformNow

It's called population control.The masses will just weed out quite a few.quite a few crazies would rear their heads.The politicians and rich are know the story of the silent majority who never take action,well they let the radicals control policy

CNN why is there no description of the shooter? Asking for a friend. Chacon described the lone suspect as a Black male with a black shirt, skinny build and 'dreadlock-type' hair – but told reporters early Friday morning that the description isn’t very detailed 'based on the chaos

So was this an old fashioned shootout between two gunmen like in the old days where disputes were settled out in the middle of the street?

So with all them guns that are avail to the people and this still happens in numbers of victims? Go figure

God Bless America 🇺🇸 🇺🇲

wild wild west

AGAIN, AGAIN AND AGAIN! SO HARD TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM? WHY NO ASK FOR A PSYCHIATRIST AUTHORIZATION BEFORE SELL A GUN? 🤔

Another day in America I guess

They weren’t injured “after” the shooting. Just not the right word.

Nice. Keep consistent please.

This bull shit has to stop. No one is safe as long as our judges and legislators continue to support guns over people's lives.

Please reveal who shooter is. Picture or description.🤔

Waiting for the day when there will be “peace until the moon is no more” Psalms 72:7 (Hopefully no much longer to wait 💜🙏)

Isn't that the same state that says come one come all buy your guns?

Well prepare to see that headline several times in Texas. Especially with their new gun laws.

Apparently 🇺🇲 doesn't give a crap about their citizens being slaughtered, so.....I guess y'all get what you vote for

The Texas Governor Abbot Fail Again He Told Every body to buy Guns but He Ready Too Build a Border Wall He Should Put a Gun Law instead

The Wild West

The Incidents in Chicago/Chatham, Illinois & Austin, Texas, show's one time more, that Governors/officials questioned for Gun Law changes, to stop these tragic Incidents... Speedy recevory for the Injureds.

Well...some where in a state someone is going to kill someone , for f...ing with them and they can't take anymore...There no increase in killing ...your just reporting things from around the u.s.--- that makes it seem we have a problem...no problem in America..just reporters

Police killed the suspect not for the danger he presented, they just filled him with lead for being a Texan AND a terrible shot

another day, another mass shooting…

Welp 🤦🏽‍♂️ thats Texas

That really worked out for you GovAbbott well done. Those poor souls!

Fight with your fists if you’re a real human being, not with bullets.

Next thing you know they’ll be doing “high noon” shootouts on the streets of Downtown Austin with Governor Abby officiating.

FakeNewsAlert Another Democrat run city !!

Some details. The Texas permitless carry or constitutional carry rule is NOT yet in effect. The shooter in this case is believed to be a black male with dreadlocks. This is believed to have started as an incident between two people.

Henceforth, every gun death in Texas should be called a “Gov Abbott incident”. Nice work GovAbbott

I wonder why 🤷🏼🤔

Outside is canceled

do you have the general suspect description that may trigger someone’s memory and help apprehend the suspect?

At least we don’t have a gun problem in this country.

I will never understand how a portion of this country can scream that they’re “pro-life” till they’re blue in the face, and then insist that they be allowed the ability to end another’s life in a blink because guns are somehow a “god-given right.”

Welp. Texas loves shooting and killing ! Don’t they still have the death penalty as if they were the Middle East ?

Mass shootings every other day now

Where’s all the Texas heroes with the guns at Did they all tucked tail and hid?

RozeRage you act as if you are focusing on the cause but in reality you are NOT because everything you said was stereotyping and scapegoating.

P Q

Where were the good guys with guns. Isn't Texas and open carry state?

Do they call Texas the lone star state because it has only recieved a one out of five star rating?

Yep a shame it happened and cancun cruz is off fishing somewhere

Welcome to America. Our motto: Land of the free…free to be shot anywhere at anytime. It’s just a guessing game now. Like Russian Roulette. Will you be next? Is today your day to get shot. Who knows…

Abbott cares more about building a wall though..

The Texas shooting of the day!

Well, America is back to normal. HOORAY!

Police: “we believe the suspect is a man” Everyone: 🙄

Mfs need to stop being scared of guns and learn to protect yourself with one so you don’t have to become a victim if you can help it. I don’t get what the hell the problem with that is. You dont just turn into a monster when you buy a gun People have problems with anger guns dont

Gosh HOW did that happen in TEXAS

'Where's the good guy with a gun' in all these shootings.

so none of those open carrying gun toteing suns of bitches put this guy down whats the purpose of open carry laws then, hmm💯👎

Oh God when will it stop?!

Why is that cnn cherry picks when to give description of shooter and when not to

Mass shooting

Sad that the Texas governor refuses sensible and safe gun laws.

We Know your agenda lmao, ain't nothing gonna happen ......2A shall live on as long as there is a 1st

Good need to send more guns to Texas,maybe they will eradicate them self’s out

What is going on with Texas and Florida. Why is it always those 2

Maybe IF everyone in Texas were allowed to carry guns this shit wouldn't happen said no one ever GovAbbott

leedsness Thanks GovAbbott this blood is on your hands

They say that the shooting was Jeffrey toobin firing off a few squirts while at work

Don't all those hillbillies open carry side arms? No one shot back? Weak..

The US has guns and Canada has trucks. One thing we have in common is the criminally insane. MentalHealthMatters

But, they have open carry laws now, so it’s all good. 🙄

Don’t mess with Texas! We will do it ourselves.

So probable gang violence…hmmm

It's Texas...they love shootings.

Well well well Texas make sure you finish giving out free guns to everybody out there

The gun must have been drunk

Hardly seems like news anymore.

Will this ever end?

Yep…nothing to see here. Just another weekend mass shooting. Texas new rule working out just dandy.

Biden admin dismantles VOICE, Trump office for reporting crimes by immigrants

It was 16

I’m sure there were no “good guys” with guns or they would have stopped this from happening Land of the “free” - home of the willfully ignorant

Texas really should just go solo, and seceded.

Just the beginning

People have become so numb -they stopped reacting or acting to stop this gun violence....it ends with the sale of few candles,flowers &those sad looking folks around the spot...teetering humanity!!
