A gunman who shot at paramedics, firefighters and police at three locations in Tucson, Arizona, Sunday afternoon killed a civilian and left four others injured.

In what Tucson Police Chief Chris Magnus called "an extremely complex series of incidents," another person was killed in a house fire and two or three children were missing.

The call about the fire at a home in South Tucson came in first, at 3:46 p.m., Magnus said. Three minutes later, police are told that a man has shot at an ambulance that had responded to an unrelated medical call at Quincie Douglas Park, about a mile away

The driver and passenger EMTs were struck, but one of them was able to make the call to police and describe the suspect and the vehicle he drove away in, Magnus said.

And the answer is always MORE GUNS?

[Hela]

1. Yep, there's some fool out there

who thinks the solution to this will be to arm EMT's and firefighters.

2. Sounds like family annihilation

And attempted suicide by cop.

5. The children were found safe later

From the link in the OP:

Two or three children associated with the house who were thought to be missing were later found alive, Sgt. Richard Gradillas tweeted Monday. Their relationship to the suspect is also unknown.

7. Thank god n/m

3. Yes! More guns! Less rules! No age restrictions! Guns! Guns! Guns!

I just don't get it. They are built to kill and maim, but some people don't want any restrictions.

4. 330million guns

in private hands in America. Just a fact that some are in the hands of mentally unstable individuals.

6. The right is just itching

to blame an increase in violence on President Biden. The blood and blame lie directly at the feet (and hands) of the NRA and the republican party.

8. let's all take comfort in the fairy tale that guns have nothing to do people getting shot.
