3 dead, at least 5 injured in shooting at North Carolina waterfront bar, authorities say

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/southport-north-carolina-shooting-deaths-injuries/

Just another mass shooting, suspect is white male marine veteran so keep an eye on how this is portrayed.

Edited: Marine vet, not army vet.

Marines have the discipline not to mix up munitions with rations

You think if the shooter was trans that there would be headlines like this

nymnympseudonym@piefed.social · 68 pts · 323d (1 reply)

Wait maybe he ever had a roommate whose friend's second cousin was trans

That's a pretty obvious antifa emergency worthy of sending in the troops... right?

Yeah, I get it, DeBevoise is a pretty fruity name. Probably took a lot of crap at the KKK rallies, calling him Frenchy and such.

The NC shooting happened last night. Except for a couple of live Youtubes, I didn't see anything in the news until now about it so I figured the media just shrugged it off.

Not an immigrant.

The catholic church and the church of England don't believe in hell. The flames in hell comes from dante's inferno influnce on the bible. I just hope wherever he is, he is receiving all the love he gave out.

As always, we took dog shit care of our wounded veterans and this is the result. Every time I hear someone say "thank you for your service" I want to kick them in the teeth. What exactly have they ever done to help a vet?

Yeah, it's fucked, frankly. But that's what soldiers always were, pawns in a fight started by people who will never see a single muzzle flash

And for what? Just to leave broken people with no support systems, growing ever more alienated from everyone else. Cruel to everyone involved

showmeyourkizinti@startrek.website · 21 pts · 323d

I just don't understand why God Emperor Trump cares more about the godless hippies in Portland and sending in the Army to protect them rather then sending in the Army to protect the righteous God fearing people of Southport, North Carolina

Is this some kind of inside joke I’m missing?

thallamabond@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 323d (8 replies)

American military terms.

Navy=Sailor

Army=Soldier

Air Force=Airmen

Marine Corps=Marine

thebestaquaman@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 322d (2 replies)

Just out of interest: Don't you have any "catch-all" word for military personnel? Where I'm from the equivalent of "soldier" it typically used to mean "unspecified military personnel".

thallamabond@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 322d

It's English, so there's probably a ton of them.

Servicemen is what I would go with. Also military personnel, but that's too long winded for me

teft@piefed.social · 2 pts · 322d

The term is G.I. It stands for Government Issue or General Issue.

chiocciola@lemmy.cafe · 1 pts · 323d (4 replies)

Yes I know that. What I’m trying to understand is what posting a photo has to do with their comment. No one said the word soldier or marine. Are you saying you also do not understand the purpose of their comment?

thallamabond@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 323d

teft probably did not realize that you were posting an image of the shooter (a marine). I did not realize he was a marine so my post said ARMY. I made a mistake in my original post, it made others confused when you posted a pic of the shooter.

...and none of the MAGAt conceal and carry patrons reacted to fire back at the MAGAt in the boat. WTF.

ryathal@sh.itjust.works · 12 pts · 323d (1 reply)

It's generally illegal to conceal carry in a bar, especially if drinking.
