Texas Walmart shooting: 'At least 19 killed' in gun attack
At least 19 people have been killed in the latest mass shooting in the United States, the BBC's partner network CBS News says.
The massacre happened at a Walmart store near the Cielo Vista Mall in El Paso, Texas, a few miles from the US-Mexico border.
At least 22 people, including children, are being treated at local hospitals.
A young white man is in custody and is believed to be the sole shooter, police say.
He has been named by US media as 21-year-old Patrick Crusius.
CCTV images said to be of the gunman and circulated on US media show a man in a dark T-shirt wearing ear protectors and brandishing an assault-style rifle.

Re: Texas Walmart shooting: 'At least 19 killed' in gun attack
An online manifesto believed to have been written by the shooter:
“In general, I support the Christchurch shooter and his manifesto. This attack is a response to the Hispanic invasion of Texas. They are the instigators, not me. I am simply defending my country from cultural and ethnic replacement brought on by an invasion. Some people will think this statement is hypocritical because of the nearly complete ethnic and cultural destruction brought to the Native Americans by our European ancestors, but this just reinforces my point. The natives didn’t take the invasion of Europeans seriously, and now what’s left is just a shadow of what was. My motives for this attack are not at all personal. Actually the Hispanic community was not my target before I read The Great Replacement. This manifesto will cover the political and economic reasons behind the attack, my gear, my expectations of what response this will generate and my personal motivations and thoughts.”

Ban fucking guns and these type of psychos won’t be able to kill so many innocent people so quickly.

How could he possibly know he killed only Hispanics? Why would you kill in an indistinctive way if you had a grudge against another ethnicity, that's just plain bonkers. He needs to be nullified.

To be fair, El Paso is over 80 percent Hispanic, so it's likely he didn't shoot many blacks, whites or Asians.

Where's Dopey Dawg ?
I want to see him deny this happened;
or If it did happen it wasn't in Texas;
or If it was in Texas, it must have been one of them thar' Californian hipsters what done it..
Third mass shooting in a week -- that's simply maintaining the average for mass shootings in modern day USA. Now await Trump's declaration that there's "good and bad people on both sides"..

El Paso is the one major city in Texas that is not deep south. I've always said it is, in effect, a part of liberal New Mexico, which it is just beneath geographically.
I suspect that is why a white supremacist would travel 10-hours to kill...he didn't want to hurt any white nationalist southerners.

Ban guns. But they won't. They never will.
Also horrifically indicative of the problem with constant anti-immigration vitriol.
Sad, sad news.

'Domestic terrorism' is such a laundered term. I suggest 'white terrorism'.

Re: Texas Walmart shooting: 'At least 19 killed' in gun attack
Patrick Crusius, who stands accused of shooting 20 people to death at an El Paso Walmart, had a presence on social media, including a Twitter page in which he indicated support for Failing Idiot God by liking his tweets and those from people praising the president.
Crusius, 21, is from the Dallas/Fort Worth area and was taken into police custody after the mass shooting. Officials confirmed that they are also investigating a manifesto, but they haven’t said definitively whether it belonged to Crusius. Authorities told ABC News that Crusius told them he wanted to kill as many Mexicans as possible.
Crusius liked a tweet in which a page using the name “John Doe” praised Trump, and spelled out the president’s name with firearms (while liking another post trashing Bernie Sanders):
