What we know so far:

    At least five people were killed and 21 injured as well as three police officers in a shooting rampage in Texas
    Police initially feared more than one shooter was at large - but later confirmed a lone gunman had been shot and killed
    The rampage began at 4pm local time in the town of Midland with a traffic stop where gunfire was exchanged with cops
    The suspect hijacked a US Postal Service Van and began shooting passersby at random
    Police chased him to a Cinergy cinema in Odessa - sparking a panicked evacuation of a shopping mall
    The gunman - a white male in his 30s who has not been named - was shot dead by police

And before anyone asks - I've seen this "the MSM aren't covering ______" rodeo before - four of the five articles I linked gave the shooter's name, and one, the NYT, included the guy's mugshot.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

When I searched the phrase "football game shooting in Alabama" (C & P from your post) using Duck Duck Go, those were the first five results. The Alabama football game shooting is getting lots of national coverage in the MSM.
Perhaps I should have said, "Democrat gun-grabbing politicians say  :Cricket:"
It's always crickets when other than a white male commits a mass shooting.

Elizabeth Warren Demands Gun Control Vote Before Midland Facts Known

AWR Hawkins1 Sep 2019

Democrat presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren demanded a Senate gun control vote prior to knowing details on the Midland-Odessa shootings.

Warren tweeted:

@SenWarren

Time’s up, @SenateMajLdr. Let’s vote on gun safety legislation NOW. Every day you wait, more tragedies happen.

Do something, Senator McConnell. America is done waiting for you.

Warren’s tweet came at a time when the specific number of wounded and deceased was unknown, as was the specific type of firearm used, the means by which the firearm was acquired, and the motive behind shooting people from a vehicle on an otherwise normal West Texas Saturday.

There is a reason he identity isn't being released and the longer they delay, the more suspicious the public will be about a coverup.

Why, he's famous. Just like the rest of these murderous savages.

Whether there is some unifying link or not, the proliferation of mass shootings seems like a terror campaign. Of course, the anti-gun Left media is lapping this up, not to mention that it gives their punditz plenty to babble about in hysteria.
Which puts America right where they want it.

In panic.

A crisis.

Not to be wasted.

In Texas, where good ol' boys are known to carry and defend themselves.
Where there are Castle Doctrine laws.

Where the MSM will paint this as having a gun is no defense, or not defense enough, and run with the tired old crap that getting rid of guns is the only solution.

Mark my words, if they aren't spewing this yet, they will be.

In the meantime, how's the investigation of Hillary and the Obama DOJ going?

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Hi gang. Looks like my hometown had a little excitement yesterday.

Family and friends are safe. Couple of them just missed being in the middle of it in Odessa.

Sadly the death toll is up to 7.

Stay safe, dude.  You never know where the anti-gun "mass shooting" nuts will strike next.  (that's right, I said it)

Most probably think all these shootings are just random.   I doubt it.

I suspect that they are targeting Texas (and the AR-15) because of our open carry, pro-gun mentality.  It's pretty obvious... at least, to me.

The comments in most publications still allowing them are gratifying. Even in the Sun article on the shooting. People seem to be getting what the politicians are up to.

For all we know, "white" can be "Hispanic", honestly, just say, per official interpretations and I hear we are not even getting a name so far? Why not?  White can probably mean other peoples too, though, I'm not all up on classifications.

I see sometimes demographics defined as "Hispanic non-white", say as to include, say Dominicans or something.

On the other hand, what if the shooter's name matches a well known family or something? I don't think we know much on this. No official updates for ? Maybe 15 hours.

Yes, it is sad. It's a crying shame, really.
I hope the little girl and the rest of the wounded all recover, and offer my prayers for them as well as the friends and families of all involved.

Unfortunately, the usual suspects will once again try to use this and other incidents to take away the millions of rifles that were not used to harm anyone by panicking Americans.

Not going anywhere these days without my gun. It’s just safer that way.

I’ve even got friends of mine that are ignoring the Texas 30.06 law for their own safety.

FYI this Cinergy place where the shooter was finally stopped is a Movie Theater/Arcade/Gaming complex. It’s a gun free zone.

And. End I’m no tinfoil hat type but the more these happen the more it doesn’t look “random”.

West Texas lawmen don’t like to make these dirtbags famous. That’s the honest truth about it. But if there is a group that plotted this like was reported at one point...better to not let the rest of the group know which one was killed so they can roll them all up.
