One person died in Saturday's mass shooting in Brownsville. This is how @nytimes described him. "The man who was killed, Jason Pagan, was released on parole in January after serving about two years in prison. The police believe he was a Bloods gang member."nyti.ms/2K8fWNL
@nytimes @NYDailyNews @nypost Here's a link to @NYPDONeill's statement about Jason Pagan, the victim of the shooting. Oh and for good measure he says others who were injured in the shooting were gang-affiliated.
@nytimes @NYDailyNews @nypost @NYPDONeill Jason Pagan was killed at a festival held annually in Brownsville, just like the one in Gilroy. Thousands of people were enjoying a lovely summer evening. One person was killed, 11 injured, one critically. Yet there are no stories about the victims, their families. No photos.
@nytimes @NYDailyNews @nypost @NYPDONeill By contrast, here's a story on the victims of Gilroy's mass shooting, with photos.
@nytimes @NYDailyNews @nypost @NYPDONeill And here's how @USATODAY described the Gilroy mass shooter (as excerpted in @GreenvilleNews). "The 19-year-old who police say turned an assault weapon on festival-goers was known as a quiet teen who stayed out of trouble." Note use of school photo.
