We all know about the Anunciation shooting in MN, although the carnage from the other mass shootings didn't quite fit the narrative and were not given much attention nationally.
Now we get another mass shooting in KC which gets some local coverage, but not national.

Then we get another mass shooting in KC which also gets no national coverage.
It's almost like some mass shootings are more equal than others.

If all mass shootings got national coverage, would there by anything else covered nationally?
This is not to say that there are really all that many, but those that happen tend to happen in the same neighborhoods or by the hands of those from the same neighborhoods. I just want there to be movement toward improving safety, increasing police presence, loosening stupid anti-gun laws and most of all, putting themes of character, virtue and moral behavior into standard school curricula. That last bit is most important, and if kids aren't getting it from home or church, they need to get it in school. The bottom line is that they need to get it.
Couldn't see the first link--restricted and must log in which I can't do.
It worked for me. I'll see if I can find more video, but it's one of the mass shootings that hasn't gotten national attention in KC.
Art,
While that's partially True, I think it has as much to do with perpetuating a narrative. We regularly see no coverage of mass shootings which are gang bangers shooting gang bangers or when the shooter is not a "conservative white man".
The problem is that the left doesn't give a shit about the victims of mass shootings except for their value in pushing their agenda. 50+ shot in Chicago last weekend doesn't make a blip on the leftist radar, mainly because it's so common.
They want to cherry pick mass shootings for political gain, and virtually nothing else.
Obviously doesn't fit the LEFTIST narrative.
Obviously not. Just like police body cams destroyed the ASPL narrative about police, stories like this destroy the narrative about mass shootings.
The problem is that they need to count these shootings as "mass shootings" to support the claims that there are thousands of mass shootings every year. Yet, including gang violence both skews the numbers and invalidates the narrative. Much like including suicides in tallies of gun violence drastically skews the numbers and pants a false picture, as does failing to delineating defensive gun use, to do otherwise invalidates the narrative.
I've seen so many people pushing the false narrative about "assault rifles" being the problem, when the DATA clearly shows that a tiny fraction of shootings are with rifles. Banning "assault rifles" (especially as there are more functional alternatives now) will not make an appreciable dent in gun deaths and the DATA clearly shows that to be True. Scary black guns are simply easy targets (no pun intended) for idiots like Dan to screech about.
The incident in the video is reported on in one of the other links, although the video might not be included.
I've just more clumsily said the same thing in a more recent post of yours.
