TEN people have been killed and 30 were injured in a bloody mass shooting at a Texas supermarket.

At least one gunman is in custody as cops are combing the Cielo Vista Mall in El Paso after reports of multiple gunmen armed with AK47s-type weapons mowing down shoppers.

If you watch the video in your link, there's a store employee wearing a red shirt (the caption mistakenly says walmart employee) telling people the shooter is in dillards

There's also a few pictures of what looks like dozens of police officers wearing fatigues. How did they get dressed in fatigues so quickly and get there? is this typical of law enforcement? I've never seen a cop wear fatigues.

A federal law, 1st Amendment not withstanding, should be passed that prevents immediate newspeek broadcasts of these kind of catastrophic event...e.g., infamously famous Wolf was speaking with congressional Rep from El Paso ~ both bemoaning the event and such while warching homemade citizens’ videos rolling across the screen....shades of Wolf in Teheran...

Shooter was a white , from Dallas, witnesses described as "calm and nonchalant" as he walked through shooting people.

Wearing ear protection! When is the last time,an active shooter felt the,need to wear ear,protection?

No shots fired by LE, suspect didn't resist arrest.

2 mass shootings, in less than a,week. Right on cue, for the elections, with all the needed political accompanying reasons .

This guy supposedly left a manifesto blaming his,attack on the " Hispanic invasion of Texas."
Cue the calls,for gun control and,blaming Trump for this one.

Wife was visiting family in ELP, they were in Old Mesilla when this happened. A lot of El Pasoans blame it on Trump making such a big deal about illegals. They have the wall now, which dropped auto theft by about 80%, but I guess they are not smart enough to uunderstand their democrat US reps are encouraing the illegals to come to the US and get all sorts of free stuff.

Understand the shooter ran out of ammo, then got tackled. Just 21 y/o from North Dallas, democrat, said he has been a white supremacist for many years, even before Trump was elected.

Would think we'd expedite this boy getting executed in Huntsville this year. Just dedicate a court and appeals court to handle only his case and appeal - get it done in a few weeks. Then allow he t/b hung by his neck until he was dead, or drop him from a height sufficient to send him on his way immediately when his head separated from his body. Too bad Old Sparky is retired.
