Doesn’t look good!!

Edit: Saw a closeup, he’s 💯 dead. Jugular shot and it gushes like the Cool-Aid man shattered.

Edit 2: Fox is apparently reporting that he’s admitted to the hospital, maybe he’s a snowball that survived hell?

Edit 3: Mixed reporting on if the shooter has been arrested or not. A video showed an old bald white dude in custody.

Edit 4: Trump just had to be the one to announce it… He’s dead. Apparently the old white dude was not the shooter. You can see from the distant video that people did not react to a close shooter, it was at distance.

      Pretty much yeah, I’ll be scrolling through some stupid memes and then there’ll be an uncensored video of a child in Gaza suffering horrific wounds with no warning or anything. Uses to be you had to seek this stuff out on LiveLeak, now it just pops up on your feed.

      yes and it is a mixed bag (good because, I mean, there is a reason why Twitter WAS the place for seeing news as it broke across the world and why so many journalists used it. and really graphic/obscene stuff would eventually be taken down - but bad because now its run by a nazi who doesn’t really care either way)

      Yes, I remember during the start of the high-active phase of genocide in occupied palestine twitter was flooded with dead/brutalized people. Also there are entire channels of ukrainian war gore.
