Another Day, More Mass Shootings

 

Memphis

"One person is dead and 10 more are injured after two shootings in Tennessee that police believe are connected, the Memphis Police Department said.

No suspect has been arrested.

Officers arrived at Live Lounge in Memphis at about 12:43 a.m. Sunday where two shooting victims were found and taken a hospital in critical condition, police said. Five more victims also arrived in non-critical condition at area hospitals in private vehicles.

While at the Live Lounge scene, officers learned about more shooting victims at a nearby location.

There, police found a male victim who was deceased and three additional victims who were taken to a hospital in critical condition."

Indianapolis:

"Five people were injured in a shooting Sunday morning near an Indianapolis gas station, according to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department.

When law enforcement arrived at the scene, near East 42nd Street and North Franklin Road, they found 'five victims with injuries consistent with gunshot wound(s),' Public Information Officer William Young told CNN.

'Four of the victims are reported to be awake, and breathing (stable condition) and the fifth victim is in critical condition,” Young said. “All individuals have been transported to area hospitals.'”

It's a good day for the National Rifle Rampage Association, gun humping absolutists, and their bought-off Congress critters, but a bad day for the rest of us.
