Oh God! When will the hate end?
Never. It’s always been around, and it will always be around.

The internet makes it easy to spread it, and indoctrinate others.

There’s no easy solution there either, and certainly no perfectly effective one.

I’m confused about how many were killed. Different news stations are saying different things. Does anyone know??
We’ll likely have a firm number during the next press conference.

Unfortunately, there are a number of people still in critical condition, so it’s only going to rise.

The graphic video CNN just showed is absolutely horrific victims blurred on the ground outside the Walmart. I can’t imagine watching that knowing the victims might be your loved ones.
But the citizens that were running to help the injured were amazing! True angels! Men and women. They ran right up to the front of the store with the shooter inside. I believe it was the woman who I heard say, "Help me turn him over", I'm sure in an attempt to administer CPR.

Like Mr. Rogers said......always look for the helpers. Or something close to that!

I never could either until today. Most of my family is in El Paso, all except my sister. Finally heard from my brothers wife, the last we hadn't heard back from and they are ok. Lots of things closing down and being evacuated around the city. Anyway, was finally able to breath again (literally) when we heard from her. It's like your heart drops to your stomach and your lungs forget how to work (I have COPD so I do mean literally) until you hear from the last person.

I had to stop watching, it's just too much after the waiting. Came here for current info. :)

I’m so sorry it must have been very distressing. I’m really glad your loved ones are all ok.

Can a rifle weapon that he had fire a lot of rounds before needing reloading? I wonder if the weapon is registered to him.
