  1. In 2021, 150 more people in Missouri were murdered by guns than all the firearm homicides in Canada, Australia and United Kingdom added together. Gun laws work.

  2. I wonder what was that she put into her pocket ? Shes doing alot of interviews… Looks a little suspicious . Hopefully just her phone or keys. Cops will review and ask you bet on that.

  3. This country is so violent

  4. Didn't see the cops doing much but thank you for the people that helped 😮

  5. The IRS building is right there, and it looks like law enforcement are on the other side of the fence. Hopefully the facility’s cameras caught the incident.

  6. Fortunately there are a few good people with courage and concern for others…that will put themselves in harms way to do what is called for to keep us safe. Thank you. 🙏

  7. Cop here: Those people should get season tickets!!!

  8. Let me guess. Two 13% with guns!

  9. The rest of the civilized world is thinking what’s up with Americans and their guns. Meanwhile we are saying nothing can be done, but we do have thoughts and prayers, so that is nice. If you have never seen someone you love riddled in bullet holes count your blessings. Some of us have not been so fortunate. I am truly sorry for all those that died and for their friends and families. RIP

  10. Reminds me ep 5 of The Last of Us

  11. Like Randy Savage said, "YOU'RE GOING NOWHERE !"

  12. looks like 2 people had a gun fight with a lot of bystanders around.

  13. I'm not from America Thank God for that. The firearms Laws and policies in the USA are too weak and ridiculous too much blood and tears from heaven

  14. The Chiefs need to do something for this guys

  15. Do not underestimate the power of crazy TS fans

  16. Over 800 law enforcement present and civilians caught the suspect.

  17. Guns are destroying this country.

  18. Imagine living in a country where this is an almost daily occurrence.

  19. Dis anyone notice the person in the cake jacket that took the gun

  20. Cops standing around lol jeez what a society

  21. Trump: "Very Fine People On Both Sides" 🤡👈😜

  22. The cops are too busy harassing the black guy at the other end, and the guys tackling the supposedly shooter

  23. And the cops are headed off to a donut shop…

  24. Crazy trump supporters for sure
