It’s mind boggling how the US seems to be worried about helping other countries and their problems, yet we have a gun violence crisis in our country. We need to deal with our problems first before we can help anyone.

To all you insensitive people making fun of the man who said concession insted of succession, you are whats wrong with this country. Have some class and show some compassion. He just witnessed a mass shooting. His Adrenaline is up. He has a microphone in his face...get a clue. Ya'll are hateful. We all heard him.

Only the good people can understand that people can make mistakes in situations like this. They can overlook it, instead of poking fun at it or making it political like one loser did.

The trauma in the eyes of that guy who witnessed the bodies is palpable!

THIS IS NOT A THING THAT "HAPPENED AGAIN"...
THIS IS A THING THAT'S HAPPENING...

The only country where this happens, This isn't what the 2nd Amendment is about.

Why aren't they identifying the suspect? Pat I'd like to solve the puzzle.

“America is a Gun, ” Brian Bilston
England is a cup of tea.
France, a wheel of ripened brie.
Greece, a short, squat olive tree.
America is a gun.

Brazil is football on the sand.
Argentina, Maradona’s hand.
Germany, an oompah band.
America is a gun.

Holland is a wooden shoe.
Hungary, a goulash stew.
Australia, a kangaroo.
America is a gun.

Japan is a thermal spring.
Scotland is a highland fling.
Oh, better to be anything
than America as a gun.

At this point hearing shots fired, don't assume its fireworks. Just take cover or run. It's really rare that someone lights up fireworks inside a mall!

This is America, but this is NOT freedom. We are all sitting ducks. We deserve better! Smh

[rubengutierrez]

This is normal in Texas!!! Governor easy gun laws making real easy for killers to get a AR-15.

[damncars]

Very little shock and compassion in this report. People are getting used to the new divided America. Sad.😢

[hughdismuke]

Welcome to America. This is our way of life now. It no longer 'if' a mass shooting will occur, but how many will die in the next one.

[gordonbennett]

''Thoughts and prayers''. Yeah right. And on to the next one.

The reason, no life in America, USA 🇺🇸 THE RICHEST COUNTRY' IN THE WORLD BUT NO LIFE, it's just about work and work and just wait for retirement day, live the life now not in the future.

My wife wanted to go there for shopping around that time and I said no because I was tired.

[SteveAubrey]

This world is so fekked up. After hearing about this, I live in Denton, I ordered a ballistic armoured backpack for my son for school. WTF!?
I simply cannot understand why anyone would want to hurt others like this. It's pure evil. Prayers sent for the families of the victims . Übercuddos to that brave officer that neutralized this scumbag shooter. That officer saved so many lives yesterday. I hope the Uvalde police are watching. The Allen PD is what police are supposed to be like!

I hope things get better for America ! Love from australia !

1:46 When the firemen have to wear combat helmets and combat body armour you know you have a systemic shooting problem 😐

Shooter was Hispanic. A translator was needed when they interviewed his family

[elizabethsorola]

God bless all the families with
Strength. Amen!
