Media also has a tenancy to bury "workplace violence" incidents, which this clearly is.Not sure if serious, this is adult victims (low value to antis) , like only about a dozen or so, and a black guy (with likely dem affiliations) as the shooter, not to mention the BG is dead, so that destroys his memetic value, there's no trial or prosecution for the media to harp on for 2 years. Also in a "half square state" (VA, not some big ultra moonbat mecca) Much like the navy yard incident, it'll be off the feed in under a week. Another good analog is the congressional baseball game moonbat shooter guy, that disappeared within a month or so too. If it wasn't for Scalise surviving it, nobody would remember it because the media swept it under the rug.

It should not but probably will. What matters is "suppressor" is in several of the stories. The firearm prohibition horde can seize upon this as a way to mete out punishment to firearm owners.The can has no bearing whatsoever on this
Yes. Or this could be the last opportunity we have to educate people that suppressors don't silence things and make little difference to anything other than ear drums.We can forget about suppressors coming off of the NFA now. I could see Trump banning them outright.

People heard gun fire. Loud gun fire.
From a save today lol
Yup, the new Bump StockDid 'silencer' make a difference in Virginia Beach carnage?
Did 'silencer' make a difference in Virginia Beach carnage?
“It is the nightmare scenario that gun-control advocates have warned about amid efforts in recent years to ease restrictions on the devices, which they say can help shooters escape detection and inflict more carnage. But gun-rights advocates and most law enforcement experts say DeWayne Craddock's use of a suppressor likely had no bearing on his ability to kill so many people in so little time on Friday...
That could at least partially explain why survivors of the attack said they were caught off-guard and initially puzzled by what was happening. One described hearing something that sounded like a nail gun.
"This is the concern we were talking about when Republicans were trying to deregulate silencers as 'ear protection'," said David Chipman, a retired agent with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and now senior policy adviser with Giffords, a gun-control lobbying group.
"Especially on a handgun, a suppressor will distort the sound in such a way that it would not immediately be recognisable as gunfire to people who sort of know what that sound is."
Oh yeah, how many people might misidentify the sound of a suppressed 45 but would “immediately” recognize the sound of an unsuppressed 45 indoors, perhaps on a different floor?

AFAIK this is the first one of these shootings where the perp was black.
I hate the fact that when shit like this happens, I have to be worried about my rights in addition to being concerned for the victims.
Thanks leftists, thanks a lot.
The story is all but gone from most news sites....
Long Island rail road shooter was black.Shooter is 40 year old black man DeWayne Craddock. He used a .45 with suppressor
AFAIK this is the first one of these shootings where the perp was black.
I wonder what his beef was?

I remember the DC snipers well, the top story went from the upcoming invasion of Iraq to the snipers for about 2 months. Funny thing is that once they were caught, about a week after, it went right back to Iraq and later the Laci Peterson disappearance.Not sure if it counts as "this kind" but the DC sniper was a team of "non whites" if i recall correctly.

“Weekend Effect” - journalists don’t want to waste effort while we’re watching sports or playing outside. It’ll be back next week.
This^The media's just not interested of focused on it, if it's not some huge number like 20+ dead, if it's not a school shooting, or some White guy mass killing minorities or some other "victim" group, the media ignores it.
You look at the mass shootings the media has focused on the most the past 20 years and continues to use as talking points: Columbine, Virginia Tech, Gabby Giffords, Aurora, Sandy Hook, the Black South Carolina church shooting, Pulse nightclub, Vegas, and Parkland school shooting.
The focus is schools, very large death tolls (Pulse and Vegas), or White racism (Black church).
Tomorrow at the first sign of a plunging stock market, CNN is going to have Wolf Blitzer on stand by all day, the breaking news music and logo will play, Wolfy will be standing there all grim faced like Joe Biden has just been shot, and state very calmly that Trump's tariffs and trade policies have just destroyed the US economy.
Then the markets will surge up a few hundred points an hour before the markets close.
The media will put every effort into not talking about this shooting.
... Joe Biden ...
Don't give them any talking points if Biden were ever to be shot.That would be Joe Biden, the author of the Federal Assault Weapon Ban?
While I already know the answer, I'd like to ask the editors, producers, and other people in news media why they didn't focus on the Navy yard shooting (Black shooter), the Fort Worth base shooting (Muslim Army Major), Dallas police killings (Black shooter) the Sutherland Springs church shooting (Dishonorably discharged Prohibited Person w/ domestic violence convictions the Air Force didn't submit to the FBI), the Oregon community college shooting (Black shooter, who in pics had his skin doctored to look White), the San Bernadino shooting (Muslim husband and wife), and the Texas school shooting last May (pump shotgun and .38 revolver) as much as they have the others that I mentioned.This^
These shootings have turned solely into political events .
For the rabid Prohibitionists to go wild in the media screaming for confiscation.
And from here forward should be viewed with extreme scrutiny.
As a sponsored wag the tail happening.
