You can hear the crowd chanting 'do something' over Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine after the Dayton shooting that left nine dead and 27 injured.

Dayton vigil turns into campaign for gun control: 'When do we want it? Now!'; gunman's sister among 9 deadPublished 10:26 PM EDT Aug 4, 2019

Audience members repeatedly interrupted the speakers to demand action by lawmakers: "What do we want? Gun control! When do we want it? Now!" Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl said officers patrolling the area heard gunshots and saw people running. They engaged Betts, who was armed with an assault-style rifle, within 20 seconds, and he was"neutralized" approximately 30 seconds after he fired his first shot, Biehl said.

"Downtown Dayton is a very safe area," Carper said. “This is unheard of and very sad. It’s a very tragic evening.” When it was over, bodies were strewn across the street and sidewalk. Shoes from fleeing bar patrons were scattered in a parking lot. The gunman was white; six of those killed were black.

He can’t do something BY HIMSELF. We need all of Congress to join us!

I can’t. I’ve been bought.

The only thing these GOP scumbags are gonna do is blame Videogames, Movies and Music. Oh yeah and their favorite talking point - The people who suffer from mental illness. There's zero proof to back up any of these claims.

Nana2chainz You talk about out of touch with reality. This is that guy. Along with the republican house and senate in Ohio. Gerrymandered to keep them in power. Let's not get started on Gym Jordan and his gerrymandered duck district.

People are tired, angry, scared, and fed up!

He won't do shit about it!

Bought and owned by NEA.

What, make our society moral?

Public service/politicians are NOT the reasons for these people who kill masses.Takes community to notice anything really unusual about(I know I wouldn't want to make a mistake/guess myself).Takes that individual to THINK on their own which few do.Whole U.S. against theseRAREones

Ohio’s Republican legislature already did something. It passed Senate Bill 199, signed by Kasich in 2016, which expanded the locations where Ohio citizens can carry guns, including in day care centers, campuses, workplace parking lots, airport terminals, school zones and bars.

Here is an idea arrest everyone from Antifa

I think you are the one how start all of this

But you can't hear the opressed Kashmiris. Indian brutal army is going to slaughter kashmiris and the champion UNHumanRights is silent. We call it hypocrisy or something else? realDonaldTrump where does your kashmir policy statement reside now?

DoSomething

Prediction: He won’t.

Can he be recalled ?

Gov Mike Put on your armour and go out of your house, RIGHT NOW, and arrest all of this psycho killers! Aaaaaaaaaa!

Didn't he have a 'hit list' and no on cared to follow up

people need to do something. the warning signs were there before this happened.

...when will the masses understand the power is with them and the politics they address. if u elected someone along party lines w/o examining whether they support equality then step up and take some responsibility...the “do something” u seek lies in your vote in 2020...duh😐

We should do something about the mentally ill that are being radicalized by ANTIFA

He will “do” thoughts and prayers.... anything else would be hard to explain to his purse-holders.

The gov seems a bit tone deaf. Not reading that crowd very well. People are pissed off governor. DoSomething

If a dem governor, some bills will be suggested but failed. gOP? Go directly to failures without even trying

He was a Democrat socialist who liked Elizabeth Warren. Hardly a white supremacist.
