The headline makes it sound like a random mass shooting, but the article says this was a targeted shooting and some of the injuries were not directly related to the shooting:
A male shooting victim was found dead in a common area, police said. He is believed to have been the target, Ocala Police Chief Mike Balken told reporters during a press briefing.
A woman also suffered a gunshot wound to her leg, Balken said. She was transported to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Other injuries stemming from the incident included chest pains and a broken arm, Balken said.
Obviously, it should never have gotten that far in the first place, but this is also not an example of someone going on a mass shooting spree. This was someone targeting and killing someone else.
Thank you. Indeed, a messy hit is not a mass-shooting although it looks like some. For once, it could’ve been ordered by someone else, and therefore persecutors would look into a more complete list of possible perpetrators.
You can basicly cut Florida into thirds.
North Florida to Central Florida - Redneck Mini Alabama
Central Florida to Ft Lauderdale - mostly transplants Mini New York
From Lauderdale south until the Keys - Mini Cuba, but probably mini South America would be better. Plus real rich folk.
This happened in redneck country.
I just moved to Miami (from NYC) and it seems like half the people I meet also just moved down there within the past 2-3 years from either NJ or NYC.
In Florida? With their lax gun laws and so, so many good guys with guns? Surely a hero prevented or at least responded to the incident.
No?
Not at all?
Like…basically every time this happens?
Weird.
But next time surely a good guy will justify the lack of any other response beyond condolences. Just wait.
Perfect timing! NOW Republicans will start caring about the Constitution again!
Hopefully this is related to the 12 foot alligator?
