They haven't named the shooter yet, have they? I like this and hope they never do.
Shooter has been named:
"The deceased gunman has been identified as Santino William Legan, 19"
At least 4 dead, 15 wounded in shooting at Gilroy Garlic Festival in San Francisco Bay area
CBS seems to be the only MSM at this point naming the suspect.Well so much for that. Not many people seem to be naming him, though.
Yes, I found that, but the feature is about the shooter's brother (two years ago). The shooter's name is mentioned in passing as a brother.
Yes, people will question that. The news is still breaking, still very fresh.nobody questioning where he got the firearm from? im in the uk, my teen/young adult kids and their peer groups would struggle big time to obtain one, let alone how to use one
Do you know that is him and not a dummy account set up just recently?Twitter account he says he is, "Italian Iranian."

They knew who he was right away. He was a local boy and his brother is minor level famous. They were keeping it tightly under wraps because they are actively searching for a 2nd shooter.They haven't named the shooter yet, have they? I like this and hope they never do.
Not sure if I should be sharing this but they were trained to use at a those weaponslocal Medieval Arts fighting school, that also has "zombie apocalypse" type courses where modern weapons are used (replicas of the real obviously during training, but they are taught how to load/use the real deal). A good friend of mine rubs the school and he will be devastated when he discovers this was perpetrated by one of his former students. My heart hurts.Yes, people will question that. The news is still breaking, still very fresh.
And, yes, guns are easier to obtain here in the USA than in UK.

So sorry this happened in your town. Very unsettling and sad.They knew who he was right away. He was a local boy and his brother is minor level famous. They were keeping it tightly under wraps because they are actively searching for a 2nd shooter.
