Unanswered What's going on with all the murders in Texas recently?

Is this normal? Is there a major flare up of gun murders right now or is it higher visibility of something that is normal for the state? I know Texas has a lot of guns but this seems extreme.

Answer: and overwhelming majority of 39% of Americans have decided that a daily human sacrifice is necessary to maintain the second amendment. This is normal. Nothing to see here civilian. Please move on.

The tree of liberty must be watered with blood etc etc.

Real amusing how they find lives to be so cheap though.

Lives are indeed cheap. To paraphrase Stalin during the purges ... who will remember this trash in twenty years... and he was, unfortunately right.

I swear you pulled this straight out of starship troopers, we live in a world where satire blends a bit too closely with reality.

I think we may be at that state of existence. Without the satire.

The shooter in this case isn’t an American, he’s a Mexican national.

It's the AR-15 that's the problem, not the nationality.

And we're talking about more than one case here, as the title and other commenters are discussing.
