Jenna Pitre - "Houston Shooting: Nine Injured, Suspect Dead"

Summary: Early this morning around 6:30 a.m., a lone gunman opened fire outside a neighborhood strip mall in Houston, Texas. He injured 9 people, and was shot dead on site. One person was critically injured. It is said he was wearing military type uniform. He has Nazi paraphernalia with him and inside of his house, though the police are not using this information to present it as a motive yet. It is said the suspect was a lawyer who was experiencing "issues" at his law office.

Analysis/Synthesis: These mass shootings are taking place all over the U.S., withing days of each other. The more frequent they become, the more it feels almost normal. It's worrying that so much death is taking place currently, and I pray for it to stop. This reminds me of the shooting at a Washington Mall last FRIDAY.

  1. This is crazy, especially around the election and everything. A major reason why we should be more aware of this and safe in our community.

  2. This is so sad. This is why gun control is so important, and how the government can help keep its citizens safe through regulations and rules on who and how to get a gun.
