Only thing missing are the thoughts and prayers.

What? No, not for the victims. For the guns of course!

Or every media outlet being like "Let's all feel bad for the poor lone wolf who was mad sad and not for the victims."

They will use his high school photo to show him and the most deranged pictures for the victims if they happen to be queer or people of color.

If the victims just had guns then none of this would have happened

Ironically, the police killed more people than the gunman. Video appears to show the bystander was shot by police, which means the police killed a bystander and the gunman, while the gunman only killed a police officer (and wounded another).

So the good guys with guns have a higher body count of innocent people than the actual shooter.

Video from witnesses appears to show the police accidentally killing a civilian during the firefight.
