Sometimes a picture is truly worth a thousand words.

Probably a copy cat from the North Hollywood shootout years ago.

I saw that report. At this point I can only speculate but some things I noticed; a person who fired back at the suspect was also arrested. The suspect was arrested with no incidence, in other words he apparently did not have a death wish. And lastly, the area where this took place. All of these combined make me think this may have been more of a gang/crime/neighborhood feud sort of thing rather than a crazy person decides to mass murder kind of thing. I bet very little detail will come out of it.

edit; additionally, all 5 victims deceased were men between the ages of 20 and 59. And apparently this took place inside a home. Supports my prior assessment. Gangland or domestic feud.

The headline in rather sensational and typical of media spin.

How is it that the police didn’t return fire? Have these liberal cities defanged the police and thru the legal system , eliminated any incentive for a good samarIran to intervene?

Well, those cities will become the movie “ Escape from New York”!

a person who fired back at the suspect was also arrested.

They will probably lock this guy up and throw away the key. Meanwhile the primary shooter will be back on the street before the end of the week. Our world is so screwed up.

I posted this because unfortunately self defense tactics today means having to consider that bads guys are using body armor.

Head shots.

 

[bpd459]

Face shots are the new "center mass".

 

[ShtrRdy]

Head or pelvis

Seems like media always report "ballistic vest" and most times its just a mag carrier.

 

[1911-45]

Head or torso

Pockets also a good option. Pelvic area can be fatal but also at least demobilize them.

The "armed" citizen who shot back at the Low-life was released by the Police with the following statement . "He was a legal gun owner with the proper permit , and he was returning fire , in a legal self-defense posture . You are still entitled to defend yourself when being shot at , and no charges will be filed against this man . He probably saved lives by the action He took"! Police Commissioner of Phila .

The suspect is a 40 year old black male, Kimbrady Carriker. He is a BLM actiivist who posed in womens attire in Social media posts.

Notice the Mainstream media is NOT running any images of the shooter.

I saw an NBC article on line a few hours ago that described the shooter as "a man." No further description, no name, no picture. That article is no longer on the NBC website, at least not the first page.
