Too early to say anything.
It's not too early to say that Salvador is a Hispanic first name
and that Ramos is a Hispanic surname and that his photograph
portrays facial features, hair, and skin color typical of a
Hispanic male.
Yaba yaba yaba... and the last mass shooting du jour was a White guy
pulling the trigger. So what? At the time I posted, they hadn't even finished the body count... they were still saying 12 dead at that
point.
I might say that he probably had an assault rifle, that he probably
had recently purchased it legally, that he likely had no particular
criminal record. I might say that and it's probably a good bet... but
it's too early to say.
It's not too early to demand action, though.

And just what action does idiot Jones "demand"
that he thinks will end school shootings?
NOTHING WILL END THEM!
As long as the idiotic media insists on making
depressed and angry people famous, some will choose
to become famous.

Perhaps you might actually watch the news coverage, JW.
As of now,
*you* are the only person repeating the shooter's name... the news
media are all avoiding identifying the shooter by name.
I think that we all realize that *nothing* will end the carnage in the
short term. We must look 30 years down the road and envision an
America without random mass shootings... you know, like the rest of
the civilized world. At first, the gun lobby took baby steps: "We
believe in absolutely gun-free, zero-tolerance, totally safe schools.
That means no guns in America’s schools. Period." (Wayne LaPierre in
an address to CPAC, 1999.) They agreed to gun-free churches and
hospitals, also. A few years later, they were actively pushing guns
into schools, churches, and hospitals... and here we are today with a
daily blood bath.
We cannot possibly undo all of the social damage wrought over three
decades of gun proliferation with one act of congress; however, the
longest journey begins with but a single step.
Perhaps we're ready; people are very angry; this is good.

More proof that Jones is an ignorant liar.
He claims "the news media are all avoiding identifying the
shooter by name.
I could go on - and on, and on, and on, but you get the point.
You've been caught in a bald-faced lie.

The news media are generally avoiding using the names of mass
shooters.

Piss off. I stand by my statement.
What an ignorant, arrogant LIAR!!
Even when shown the clear evidence and links
that MSN.com, CNN.com, BBC.com, and the likes
of yahoo.com, sky.com, and other news sources
have distributed the shooter's name,
Except they're not, and you know it, and what you posted to the
contrary makes you a big fat liar liar pants on fire.
But, just an observation, J.W.: you *really* need to find another
epithet besides "liar". My belief is that some terms need to be
reserved for the most egregious offenses; to that end, you will
*never* see me hurl the term "liar" simply because I casually disagree
with someone on some minor subjective point.
