Libtards like OP will blame the guns and push tougher gun control laws. Even though criminals won't obey the laws
I'm the OP and am the furthest thing from a liberal. The "who's to blame" line was sarcasm. This one isn't hard to figure out. Thugs gonna thug.
My point is that society will quickly forget about these slain people because this is common for this demographic. There's no shock value. Which is why the so called leaders of the black community won't appear on tv for this. No benefit for themselves. It's prostitution of their own race and for the life of me I don't understand why the black community supports those so called leaders. Be smarter America. Get rid of those leaders and find new ones to lead your youth.

Mass shooting? Sounds more like a drive by.
In Wilkinsburg......anything is possible.
Pittsburgh is a great city and has certainly reinvented itself since the steel industry collapse, but Wilkinsburg has struggled a bit with crime and poverty. It reminds me of south Memphis in many ways, except south Memphis may have more employment opportunities.
The local news here think it may be gang related, and more than one shooter was involved.

I thought you were pushing gun control because of the "when will it stop" comment.
If you're arguing culture I completely agree. I'm sure BLM will protest this shooting...
Yeah, I don't think so.

Pittsburgh mass shooting

I assume the shooter owned that firearm legally, right?
The local news is saying there was probably more than one shooter.

According to authorities, the shooting happened during a backyard party/cookout at 1304 Franklin Avenue.
Police said the ballistic evidence on the scene leads investigators to believe that two different weapons were discharged from two different people. Shots were fired from an alley to the rear of the home.

No doubt they purchase their weapons legally and stricter gun laws would stop them from having access to weapons.

If you google map the house, you can see the alley. Supposedly the shooters were driving by in alley aiming into yard and at the house.

Im sure they were just cooking a little extra so they could bring their lunch to work today instead of having to go out.

did wonders at Sandy Hook, San Bernardino, and every other school or governmental building that has had a shooting, right? Good luck in your gun free zone. I'll gladly stay where guns are allowed.

probably not, but had we had sensible gun control for the last decade or so, the gun he got on the black market would have been so expensive it might have swayed his acquiring it
