Mass Shooting & Gun Violence - FSU Shooter

[gtyellowjacket]

In re: Kentucky Sheriff shoots Kentucky Judge. If the Judge was sexually involved with the Sheriff's 17-year-old daughter, then that might have bern the motive.

It now appears that the former sheriff was afraid the daughter and wife were going to be kidnapped with the involvement of the judge. Former sheriff going for insanity defense.

Kentucky sheriff finally reveals his defense for shooting judge

Shawn 'Mickey' Stines, 43, is charged with the murder of District Judge Kevin Mullins, 54, in his office in September.

The Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office posted an update to its Facebook page, stating that “all suspects are in custody and there is no threat to public safety.”

Seems like we actually are much safer than we were a few years ago. I can't even remember the last time we had an actual active assailant event. Gang shootouts and domestic violence are always going to happen unfortunately, but it is refreshing not to see stories about random people being killed en masse the way they were before.

Ugh. I hope the victims survive and the assailant is either apprehended or killed.

Time to fire up the ol' Thoughts & Prayers machine.....

I got a news alert that a suspect is in custody.

Also saw that 6 people were hurt.

Why is that person using asterisks instead of writing out the word shooter?

Twitter and other algorithms flag and throttle the visibility of posts containing certain words - e.g. rape, kill, suicide, - which has caused even serious reporters to have to adopt this kind of self-censoring.

It's also why Gen Z uses terms like "unalive."

Report of 1 person killed.

Glad that the suspect was apprehended. Shame they weren’t killed.

The IC profanity filter is going global.

It's almost never two gunmen. I will be interested to see if this is accurate or just another of a long line of people assuming multiple gunmen went in fact there was only one.

I was thinking the same thing. But one dead and one in custody seems like they are pretty sure.
