pistol grip poking conspicously out of back pocket...
not 100% sure where that lands on the open/concealed binary of gun ownership

this post definitely isn't helpful but each year as incidents like this build up I grow more and more terrified for anyone who goes to the Macy's Day Parade every Thanksgiving.
I didn't used to be like this but after the Sandy Hook shooting (I grew up close to there) for the next few months I got increasingly paranoid about an incident happening where I was in Boston and then well, you know what happened

swear to god Fox News comes up with the most infuriating alerts for this kind of shit, the one that just came up in Apple News was "SUV plows down Christmas parade as children watch in horror." sorry Fox how else are children (or anyone?) supposed to react when that happens, my god

there's video of what happened, I'm hoping that the casualties are just injuries and no one died as it seems like the car slowed down before hitting the crowd but idk
strongly doubt this has anything to do with the Rittenhouse verdict, probably just a coincidence location-wise

no guns though, I don’t think, that seems to have been a mistaken impression among folks who were there responding to what they were hearing not being normal sounds you hear, and the chaos of the moment
The UC Berkeley expert I spoke with described your approach to boarding -- posting things without knowing whether they’re true in order to juice engagement -- as “sociopathic.” Do you have a response to that?

I think this is just the de facto intentional mass casualty incident thread

def wasn’t trying to correct the placement of this incident in this thread
but a (since deleted) tweet on the previous page, as well as several tweets from folks who were there, as well as outlets like the New York Post (lol) said the driver was shooting a gun out the window.. some outlets called it a “drive by shooting”
was just updating the info that “hey, it appears pretty conclusively now that that wasn’t the case”

there was apparently one gunshot, but it was a police officer discharging his weapon in hopes of stopping the vehicle

one of the last incidences of this was that and it was so gut wrenching to read about
initially thought to be homophobic attack on pride parade, but it was a member of the gay men’s chorus who stomped the wrong pedal or some shit

Brooks's exact alleged connection with the Waukesha parade has not been divulged by authorities. His name is not listed in the Waukesha County Jail database yet. It is being presumed that he was detained by cops after a red vehicle similar to the parade SUV showed up on Google Maps for the address listed in Brooks's name.
evidence there seems like flimsy reddit detective work and that's a vaporware clickbait site so maybe we chill for a sec eh
