Mass Shooting at Mormon Church In Michigan

Post by Everybody Wang Chung »

This shooting is deeply troubling. I hope it’s not politically motivated as a retaliatory act related to the shooter of Charlie Kirk being Mormon.

It's hard to keep track when there are one or two mass shootings every day across the US.

It's unfortunately become the new normal.

Tragic news. One woman has said that her grandfather was killed. https://www.detroitnews.com/picture-gal ... 6406632007. There may be other victims still inside the building.

Sadly, it was the 379th incident this year, and 6911th since 2013.
