It appears not to be a mass shooting, but a mundane, everyday shooting.

The MSM and the Dems are saddened. They were praying for huge numbers of casualties.

Massive police presence outside Baton Rouge Walmart after reported shooting

BATON ROUGE - Police are responding to a shooting inside a Baton Rouge Walmart Tuesday.

BRPD confirmed the shooting was reported around noon at the Walmart on Burbank Drive at Bluebonnet. A massive law enforcement presence, including sheriff's deputies, Baton Rouge Police and a helicopter was spotted outside the store.

The sheriff's office says the incident is not being considered an active shooting situation at this time. Authorities say they are also checking other Walmarts in the Baton Rouge area.

Witnesses reported seeing one person being taken into custody by police. Authorities say one person was taken to a hospital before EMS arrived. No further injuries have been reported at this time.

Burbank Drive is currently closed in the area while police respond.

This is a developing story.

Not taking away from the gravity of the developing situation—how do you stop copycats and crazies, whether with a firearm, machete, knife, or acid from violently attacking people. And if illegal aliens cannot go to Walmart, where will they go? Will Mexico welcome them home, provide transportation, relocation assistance.

Bernie Sanders hated Walmart as well

Bernie also was very pro gun

Bernie Sanders is also against open borders

All the other socialist crap is what Bernie spews all the time.

So how is Trump to blame?

Interesting. This is from a phone text:

Replying to @MikeHossComm
They suspect there was 2 shooters. A witness says a/ the shooter, “put his backpack on the ground and pulled a gun out”. He let out 4 shots, shooter was tall and wearing a forest green t-shirt. From your video, I just noticed a backpack. Do you recall the suspects attire?

If Walmart would just close all of their stores, then all of these mass shootings at them would stop.

Or, why should we care if detestable red-neck Walmart shoppers got eliminated, we elites of the Dem party don’t care about their existence.

Waiting for Joe & Mika and/or others of their ilk to speak the above words.

Per The Advocate: one person shot at the Wally. Vic in hospital in fair condition.
Cops have someone in custody who may be the shooter. Not an active shooter scene now.
