It has been confirmed that one person was shot and killed. Go to a parade to celebrate and end up dead. One is in critical condition in the hospital. America the land of crime and murder.

That is the truth. Commit a crime and go free, so much for justice.

Over 650 good men with guns couldn't prevent this tragedy.

Personally I think mass murder is of far more significance than shoplifting. Don't think too many mass murderers are treated with kid gloves. But just another attempt at deflection.

Very sad but not one bit surprised at the way things are today.

Well of course that happened, it's America. Mass shootings are even more American than the Super Bowl.


Anniversary of the Parkland massacre too


Yes it is. I remember when it happened as DH and I were out to eat for Valentine's day. 

 

I went to visit my mother in FL a few weeks later and she lived near the Parkland high school.  All of the schools in the area had supporting banners.

Great way to say to thank you to your team for doing a great job. The team had already left the area when the shootings began. 


There were some players still on the stage.


The news station I had on said clearly that the team had already left, but who knows?

I was at the Parkland remembrance this morning at MSD high school.  Six years later and still shampoo, rinse, repeat.  😔😔😔😔

Re: Shooting At Super Bowl Parade

News is reporting : 1 dead and 22 injured. Like another poster stated, 650 men with guns and this was still perpetrated. It makes one wonder how no one saw this coming. I wonder where they were stationed.
