Trooper shot, bystanders shot and one accomplice fled in a USPS truck

Judging by the “Cooked steak in a USPS Truck” story a few weeks back, I bet that accomplice is sweating their arse off.

This must be a mistake, Texas has some of the most lax gun regulations. I’m always told that’s the solution.

If they’re shot, aren’t they a casualty?


This might be the dumbest question I have ever read on here.

This situation sucks and this one is interesting considering reports are saying two people are involved in actively shooting, but come on man.

Getting shot doesn't mean you are instantly dead. It depends on the distance, type of gun and bullet, where on the body it hits, if someone can get to a person fast enough before they bleed to death.

Causulty = Dead, Wounded, MIA

People use causulty as a synonym to deaths, but as far as I know, that's incorrect.

Did you people get out of middle school? A casualty doesn't mean someone is injured or dead. A casualty is someone being killed in the line of fire or some kind of fatal action.

I can't believe people are arguing this.

This should no longer be a national story. These shooters want attention and that’s what the media gives them

No stupid. A casualty is anyone injured. A fatality is a dead person.

One of the casualties of war is soldiers coming home with PTSD trying to adjust to civil life.

That was easy

Y'all confusing Fatalities with Casualties.
