3/23/21: The death toll from the shooting at the Colorado supermarket rises to ten. No known motive has been offered for the shooter, Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa. His “Muslim” name, however, is likely to rivet the attention of the right-wing nuts who will suggest again that we cannot trust:
Muslims
Immigrants
People with dark skin.
Naturally,
he used an AR-15
variant,
the weapon of choice for psychotic individuals bent on mass murder.

SADLY, the misfit shooter in Atlanta on March 16 was a 21-year-old white man and a member of a Christian Evangelical church. That would mean we can’t trust:
Christians
Native-born
persons
People
with white skins.
As
CNN also notes, in just seven days there were seven shootings with four or
more killed and wounded. Five were shot and wounded by a drive-by shooter in
Stockton, California. Four were shot and wounded in Portland, Oregon. Five were
shot inside a Houston club, with one victim, shot in the neck, left in critical
condition. An unknown assailant shot and killed one person in Dallas and
wounded seven. A hundred and fifty people were attending an illegal party in
Philadelphia when at least one shooter opened fire, killing one partygoer, and
injuring five. (See: 3/25/21 and 3/29/21.)
