As a Wilson County resident for a long time and a motherless child due to a domestic dispute, not only is mental illness an issue so is domestic issues. Time will tell but I bet it was a scorened husband that wanted to hurt his wife and the others were casualties.

That's not the problem, the problem is guns are too accessible and people who are clearly insane are getting them and doing things of this caliber. YES, you must be insane to shoot anyone, IMO! Something needs to change and FAST!

Live press conference is about to start:

In other news, CNN fell again for the hoax that the shooter is Sam Hyde.

Poor guy gets named in mass shootings, as sort of a sick joke.

As usual, a lot of jumping to conclusions. I'll just wait until tonight's news.

I pray you don't have a gun in the house! how easy you let a online comment upset you. Tell someone to shut up come on man, just talk to someone its much friendlier.

Seems like shooter was an Antifa member. Name is Devin Patrick Kelly. Calls his AR-15 a "bad b**ch". My guess it was a legally obtained weapon.

The thing that breaks my heart about all of this is that San Antonio is a small community and I'm going to bet $1 that most of us will know someone who knows someone who knows someone affected by this. The immediate moments after these shootings is not the time to debate gun control or religion, the time is to support the families of the victims and family and friends affected through thoughts and prayers, whichever you choose. We can get onto the other topics in the next few days. And we need to do that, but less than 24 hours is not the time.

It is being reported that he was courtmartialed and received a dishonorable discharge from the Air Force, If this is true, Federal law didn't allow him to ever possess a firearm. So definitely some kind of failure there.
