A shooting that broke out over an argument at a 2-year-old's birthday party in Maryland sent seven people to the hospital on Saturday night.

The shooting took place outside of an apartment complex in Camp Springs, where about 12 people were in attendance at the party.

An individual approached the group of party-goers where allegedly "words were exchanged" and shots were fired into the group, according to Prince George’s County Police Chief Hank Stawinski.

Of the seven shot, three are "more serious” and four are "less serious," Stawinski said. All were transported to the hospital and are expected to survive.

A mass shooting that did get national coverage.

I guess a 'white terrorist' wasn't involved.

Uh, didn't...right? But yes, the article did not call it a mass shooting.

The threshold for a “mass shooting” has recently been lowered fro 4 to 3.

It doesn’t count unless a white was involved.

Ditto, and still is with part of my family.

It's not a party if you haven't busted a bunch of clays, kept some plastic bottles in the air, knocked over some silhouettes, and put some holes in paper.

My mother used to shoot her Mossberg .22 backwards, using the scope and a mirror.

I never saw her miss a shot.

This alleged birthday party for a 2-year old was at 9 at night. You have to search to find an article that tells you what time it happened:

Anyone want to bet that drugs and or alcohol were involved?

This “toddler” would be better off in an orphanage.

Many moons ago, Camp Springs was a very nondescript suburb of DC, at least as much as I can recall. My cousins lived there, and we visited every few years at their house vs. ours. It was a sleepy little place as far as I could tell. This is pretty crazy.

We are not even shocked anymore that this sh*t happens in such a beautiful state like Maryland. Most of it now Eastward is a total sh*thole. Most of the great cities that once were the birth of our Revolution and rise of great America are sh*tholes.

Obviously a dispute over whether the child should be given Veggie Tales or Donut Man videos.
