#Raliegh #Shooter #NorthCarolina
This man saw the devastation caused from other mass shootings & did the exact same thing? No, I can’t accept that mass shooters are mostly *_psychotic!_* I believe they’re mostly *_selfish!!_*
Little punk
There was a mass shooting in Carolina last Thursday? I’m sorry to say this is the first I’ve heard about this one. But it’s impossible to keep up.
Yep. At least every week
This is the price of freedom
Bruh these reporters don’t care about the victims, they just want “good” television, it’s despicable.
“you were supposed to walk her down the aisle 😔”…
Yeah she came off super cold
The usual suspect
This is what happens when everyone has access to guns.
I’m so sorry for the loss of all the victims and their families going through such a traumatic time
@Lemon Town What I’m saying is alot of mental health that need 100% supervision has decreased dramatically over the last 70 years. America has turned to big pharmaceuticals as a replacement. Cheaper for the government yet very profitable to the big pill makers.
These people need help and we have forgotten that .
@Lemon Town how could you not understand them
@Lemon Town oooooh good one ☝️
@Trans- solid Wookie true that
Hurt people, hurt people.
Who the bell didn’t keep their gun locked up? How did the kid get the gun.
I 🙏🏽 that 15 Y/O doesn’t make it… start teaching these brats a lesson…
I hope he lives…😡
It’s so sad that all Americans can do is constantly send prayers, and although heartfelt, prayers are useless.
Real action is needed, yet many aren’t willing to do anything more than… Pray it away
Why is this happening? Omg please y’all let’s just love on each other❤❤❤ let’s value each other
So sad, my sincere condolences for all affected.
God please bless these families through their grief and new life life will never be the same for them but help them draw near to you so that they can find healing, peace and solace in this new Journey they find themselves in and please help the shooters mother I can’t imagine what she is going thru and what she will go thru with people’s comdenation and judgment please just give everyone the answers they need in Jesus mighty name
“15 year old white male”
Let’s keep up “thoughts and prayers” as literal children grab guns and slaughter people in our country more and more. This isn’t just “mental health”, this is about fear and gun lobbyists increasing violence and gun sales. I’m all for the 2nd amendment, but we need strict purchasing, carrying, and safe storage laws nationwide and a crackdown on illegal gun purchases like the government loves cracking down on non-violent drug offenses.
Praying for all the victims
I can’t stand this world anymore… faith in humanity across the board is gone.
You were suppose to be walking your baby girl
Down the isle .the way she said this so nonchalantly my god could you not have said this more emphatically truly disrespectful 😂
I was looking for this comment…I thought it was really strange that she said that, also I was starting to think I was the only one that caught it until your comment…
Random acts of violence are pure evil
There is truly something sick about america. Usually you just gotta watch out for street gangs but to know you could die at a supermarket ,church school or at a restaurant is insane.
Its everywhere. The world dgaf anymore.
Just wait it only gets worse gotta wait 4-5 years for the teen to get life instead of the death penalty like Cruz.
Prayers out to the friends and families that are now short 1.
Also if the firearm was owned by the parents of the teen they should be arrested as well for not keeping their weapon locked up and away from the teen.
The only positive of people like this not getting the death penalty is that law enforcement can have the chance to study them and maybe learn more about what drive them there.
So more guns America? More guns more of these. Columbine was a long time ago we’ve been experiencing public terrorist by domestic terrorists ever since. Many of the dead ARE CHILDREN
That republican is sure going to charge parties really quick
Isn’t the shooter white?
Usual suspects
Heart breaking this is why we need to be armed.
I’m so thankful to live in a country where this kind of things never happen.
What country is that?
we are glad too
They need to go after the parents. Someone has to. It’s almost like these parents do it on purpose. They leave guns out for their mentally insane kid so that the kids can go shoot up a place. It happens so often that is the only reasonable explanation.
Only in America
Racism plus guns and whoala something happens SURPRISED!!!!
Can we not ban guns now 😢
Man. These incidents are starting to make me angry. The pain and hurt these families experience is gut wrenching.
I agree, it’s does make you sad and angry. But sadly, the mass shootings will continue to take place for Americans on a regular basis. 😢
So sad this has to stop we need to be safe.
ya lets not disclose the shooter… jesus christ.
Death penalty for the shooter. No one cares that he is 15.
the random shooting will never stop until the goverment confiscate all guns from EVERYONE especialy the police they are the most dangers, and also ban guns, only the army are allowed to carry guns only while in duty
This world is just terrible there’s never going to be peace
Life in the US…
My condolences to the families 😥
To much monkey see monkey do
I can’t believe this. Now it’s happening in neighborhoods when does this madness end
America is a glass half empty type country.
The sad part is all the people praying for him in the comment section are the same people who will never take any action towards gun reform
Omg why and when will it stop? People in our country are snapping. We need to get to the root of these kinds of problems. The Root. If people were treated better in this country these things wouldn’t happen.
Why indeed. 😥
Ofc he’s white
Well if he was black, it wouldn’t be news.. it would just be a normal expected day.
reporter has no class
Our deepest condolences 🙏 and prayers 🙏. May God be with yall in these trying times. May the Lord provide the strength and fortitude you need. Bless yall from Texas!!!!
Tear jerker my god.
Yeah!?!! Only bkack people do the crime huh, that narative has never been true.
So sick of how regular this is
I’m American so this is said with love:
Someone blow this godforsaken country off the map please
America 🇺🇸 That’s why America 😅
Ahhh the USA isn’t it the greatest country on the planet😢
Thanks to the jurors who voted for Life instead of the Death Penalty for N. Cruz. Now, these criminals and murderers feel entitled to do this without consequence!
Allow me to answer the families question. The youth are fascizing. It’s what happens when a rich country goes poor rapidly and the youth know they are screwed. It happened to a country named Germany a while back. Increased suicides. Violence. But the good news. Then things are such a mess that a leader is demanded.
Truly sad for dog
It’s time for a back up plan whenever going in public. These people going to trial after shooting everyone isn’t cutting it.
How many people have to die for the Republicans to wake up!
Bot
Just how many lives have to be lost before someone in office come up with a REAL SOLUTION to the gun violence in this “THE LAND OF THE FREE AND THE HOME OF THE BRAVE!!!! What are we really free from?
My heart goes out too all of them.
WOW. That’s messed up. Seems like a sweet lady too. My condolences to the families.
Yep sad stuff, that’s why instead of trying to stop law abiding citizens from having firearms we should for once actually try to address the issue. Mandate safe ownership with free vouchers for all parents who own firearms. Get teachers training at spotting trouble signs, get the schools the tools to do something about it. Not including clear backpacks or metal detectors, it’s a school not a prison.
Most importantly we need to go the the poor parts of the country and fund education, opportunity to good paying jobs programs, healthcare, homeless aid and mental health specific programs. Also I know for a fact the police have been told about rapes, threats, stocking, etc like behavior and generally ignore it, attempt to downplay the situation, etc. That is only going to give people we should be bringing in for questioning and investigating time and opportunity to do bad.
Finally we need to make sure law abiding citizens can be armed to defend themselves. Every time there’s a shooting and a good guy with a gun is there it stops, it’s happened several times, guns aren’t the problem; people are. This nation has had gun violence for a while now and it’s almost entirely caused by social pressure, conspiracy theory’s being allowed to run wild, and giving these little terrorists an outlet to get their manifesto shared.
I think the most powerful thing we could do to stop this is punish News outlets that report the motives, name, or likeness (face) of the scum that murder people. Their names should be forgotten not made immortal online why the post 9/11 24/7 news cycle. If any news group does a story on a murder, shooting, stabbing, or other terrorist like event they should not be allowed to sale any ad time for the entire 30-60 minute slot it was scheduled to air on, if they make a breaking news release they should have to refund all money’s collected from advertising customers during that slot as well. UNLESS they are a registered Non-profit organization.
Why are news agency’s supposed outlets of truth and news even allowed to form as a for profit? Doesn’t that seem like we are inviting money to get in bed with out news?
Edit: I’m all for common sense control gun, background checks are federally mandated (Check), waiting periods are a great idea for anyone who isn’t claiming need of a waiver which would have to be taken into account. Standard purchase is pay for gun, gib ID, etc; come back in a week; “special circumstances is” check one of the following boxes: Being harassed, recently threatened, recent break ins in your area, and similar; you get an instant no check waiver. Issue a free gun safe voucher that can hold 5 rifles and 5 pistols at least (or any long guns) to all adults who haven’t committed a violent felony, now that everyone can afford a gun safe (since it’s free) you can reasonably mandate all firearms not on your person much be locked up. Can you afford only one shotgun to keep the wife and kids safe and only one pistol? No longer will you be threatened by morons like @Rebor Retsnom suggesting you be arrested and held accountable for the crimes of another for trying to protect your family and not having enough money for all the extra items like a safe, which I do firmly believe should be required by all gun owners, but you can’t reasonably tax a constitutional right even though we LOVE doing that. If I can’t afford a $2,000 gun safe for a long gun and a pistol I should die? Is that it?
I should end up like the victims in this video? Nah, I’ll just not do that thanks.
A broken society creating a bunch of broken people. WE HAVE TO GET TO THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM.
What happened?
That hurts to see them crying like that. I don’t know what to say except it’s a disregard for life now. I’m not sure if people understand what life is and to just snatch someone’s life is insane to me.
Is there a consequence for these monsters?
Fed activity
I think he was related to the off duty cop. They lowkey look alike.
Can we get a new interviewer this woman is laughing.
They need to just ban teenagers outright.
I think I heard on one of the news reports that the screening for getting a gun should be more more stringent really how many shootings does it have to be before they get tough the criminals always going to have a gun you can’t stop the idiots don’t care what age they are
Heartbreaking ….I’m sure we’ll find out the 15 year old was prescribed antidepressants or something along those lines ..if I’m right then let this be a message that these pills big pharma are poisoning us with need to be stopped amd banned indefinitely there’s nothing that can’t be help with natural medicines and yes marijuana is considered a natural medicine and yes I AM AN ADVOCATE FOR MEDICAL MARIJUANA if your one of the stupid people that think I’m wrong I suggest you go speak to some cancer patient or patient who suffer from seizures
Public death to the shooter
This hurts. 😔
” You were waitin to take your baby girl down the isle”. Why would this ignorant reporter say such a thing? Good grief.
My condolences to all five families on your loss. My heart breaks for your loss. Hope you find strength in God at this time .If I could I would hug all the ones that lost a loved one. They are with the angels. 🕊️✝️ C.M.
A 15 year old white male with acces to a gun , the world laughs at the face of America , this never happens here in Spain
In Europe they don’t even report on this anymore.
This kids getting more violent mentall health where is the parents its crazy
Another young white male mass shooter … 😒
shootings are such common place now. i wouldn’t have ever heard of this if i didn’t stumble across this video. this is horrible.
I dont understand why this is happening, why are their so many senseless murders like this.
Human life is precious their is so much evil in this world.
Im so sorry this is happening God keep us safe from all evil amen.
Very sorry upsetting
so it wasn’t bad before they figured out he was an off duty officer? all lives are equally important.
Again charge the parents. How a 15 year old gets a firearm is beyond my comprehension. Go after the parents. Then maybe they will lock their guns up
why am I just hearing about this now?
15 year old kid did this?
This video is all the evidence you need to know that our mental health care systems just flat out don’t work, and parents are getting worse with each new generation.
I could never be a reporter because I would just be sobbing along with the family. This is so hard to watch 😢
There are 400 million guns in the US. there’s nothing any legislation will do to end gun tragedies.
The youth are screaming for attention and proper guidance and care and they haven’t been heard so now they’re escalating when a 15 year old does this I feel like all of society is to blame not just his parents all of us I pray for us all but mostly I pay for the family of the victims we need to do better as a society!!! Us Christians really, ACTUALLY, need to act Christian and not use Christianity as a weapon and then get upset with youth for actually using weapons I’m done
Frankensteins monster is American made all the conspiracy theory and racism baked into media and the culture since inception
Just another day in America.
😢
We don’t have a gun problem
We don’t have a gun problem
We don’t have a gun problem
Let’s stop with the thoughts and prayers for us, children, police, everyone.
Let’s work together and fix it the gun problem
People should grow up. Bullying? really? Then you are partly responsible
