Just like #ChiefsKingdom has always been there for me and my family, we want to be there for them.❤️
The @Chiefs have launched #KCStrong, an emergency response fund supporting victims and their families, violence prevention and mental health services, and first responders.… pic.twitter.com/sYMnPgCWL0
Friendly mod reminder, this thread is about yesterday's shooting. Not about gun control, gun laws, politics, or anything of that nature. If you need everyone to know what's wrong in this world and how you'd fix it, grab your megaphone and soapbox and take it to DC, thanks. [Reply]

I think those black pants look like tactical or uniform slacks. Maybe a cop standing over evidence and wanting to leave it undisturbed. Plus backpacks make good concealment of pressure cooker bombs. [Reply]

The guy in the gray hoodie appears to have been tackled where the guns are shown. And he was shown being loaded into the paddy wagon wearing the same clothes. Seems cut and dry based on the videos. But these situations are fluid and who knows what lands where. [Reply]

Throwing temper tantrums on internet message boards is the calling card of intelligent people. [Reply]

Now do the stats for Chicago, where the most strict gun laws in the country are. Does the defination of simple change? [Reply]
The majority in record homicides this year were committed with hand guns. The mayor will dodge the issue completely and just blame it on guns and nobody will ask him about any of the data I presented [Reply]
My heartfealt condolences to my fellow Chiefs fans out there. I couldn’t believe it when someone said, did you hear about the shooting in Kansas City’s parade?

Yeah, you can see the impression in the backpack where the buffer tube was sticking up. It barely fit.
One surprising thing here is that the bulge should have put up a red flag to anybody who is familiar with this type of firearm. If I see that at an event like this, I'm going to immediately flag down a cop and let him know. Hard to believe this punk was milling around in a crowd of thousands and nobody picked up on it. [Reply]
