From cnn: Revolver and a small Glock handgun found in hotel room of person detained in connection to shooting, sources say From CNN's Chief Law Enforcement Analyst John Miller A revolver and a small Glock handgun with a laser sight attached were found in the hotel room of the person detained in connection to the Brown University shooting, according to multiple federal law enforcement sources. The person detained is a male, law enforcement sources say. Authorities traced the person of interest to the hotel in Coventry, Rhode Island. According to the sources, law enforcement banged on the door ordering him to open up. Once inside, they asked where the person had been that day and evening. He responded he was there in the hotel the whole time. |
No campus is safe. Period. |
| Why was the guy even thinking about Brown University? |
Duh! The fat orange man has been rallying about the Ivies and “elites” all year. He has been inciting exactly these kind of nut jobs. |
I guess we should ban revolvers |
Well, there was that gunfight at the O.K. Corral. |
Now take gang shootings out of it, watch what happens. |
I’m sorry, did you think that you had some angle? Jesus Christ you compensators are still working with these garbage points?! Lmao There is no official federal statistic that tells us exactly how many mass shootings are gang‑related, but we can look at homocides. “• In large cities, gang-related homicides can account for 20–50% of firearm homicides, depending on the city. (NIJ.gov) • Nationally, gang-related deaths are a smaller fraction of total gun homicides: roughly 10–15% of all firearm homicides. (Bureau of Justice Statistics, 2023) Example from CDC/FBI estimates: • Total gun homicides (2023): ~17,927 • Estimated gang-related gun homicides: ~1,800–2,700 nationally • This is approximate because not all jurisdictions record gang affiliation consistently.” |
I did that math and you didn’t get any smarter. |
Or men. Which is it, America? |
You can do the work using https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/ Gang shootings are included by GVA. You do know that innocent victims, many children, are caught in the crossfire of gangs. |
It drops from 383 to 18, but don’t let that get in the way of your outrage. |
Here’s a study that specifically took gang shootings out, so there actually are statistics. https://rockinst.org/gun-violence/mass-shooting-factsheet/ |

But, what you’re describing is illegal. It shouldn’t be happening at ALL. Because it’s against the law. |
