Dayton mayor says question has to be asked: how is it possible that Dayton is the 250th mass shooting in the US this year -- and El Paso was 249?
President Trump on mass shooting attacks in El Paso and Dayton in the past 24 hours:

"The FBI, local and state law enforcement are working together"

"Law enforcement was very rapid in both instances"

"God bless the people of El Paso Texas. God bless the people of Dayton, Ohio"
UK PM Johnson: "I'm deeply saddened by the shootings in El Paso, Texas and Dayton, Ohio. Our hearts go out to the victims and all those affected by these appalling acts of violence."

Dayton mayor after mass shooting in her city overnight: "How many cities have to go through mass shootings?" nbcnews.to/2Kofqvj - @MeetThePress
@MeetThePress JUST IN: Gun violence terrorism survivor Gabby Giffords:

President Trump and Majority Leader McConnell "must call the Senate back from August recess immediately. We cannot afford to wait another day for lawmakers to address this horrific national public safety threat."
@MeetThePress Giffords: “It’s been 158 days since the US House of Representatives passed the Bipartisan Background Checks Act. How many more lives will be lost before Majority Leader McConnell and President Trump take the next steps to sign that lifesaving legislation into law?”

Amid rise in white supremacist domestic terrorism, US federal law enforcement doesn't have the same toolkit to fight domestic terror that it can use to fight international terror, legal experts and ex-FBI agents say. nbcnews.to/2KneBmq
Following the 9/11 attacks, the US government took an aggressive stance toward preventing and punishing acts of Islamist-inspired violence inside US borders, defining it as "international terrorism."

In contrast, there is no domestic terrorism statute.
Cases involving white supremacists are typically not prosecuted in US federal courts under terrorism statutes because they don't involve "foreign terrorist organizations."

They often land in state courts, becoming drug, fraud or murder cases.

El acto terrorista en El Paso, Texas, me tiene indignado como mexicano y como ser humano. La numeralia de armas es lapidaria y, como quedó claro, afecta, lastima, mata, en ambos lados de la frontera: 35% de los “hogares familiares” en 🇺🇸 tiene, al menos, un arma de fuego.
Va 🧶
-55 millones de estadounidenses posee, al menos, un arma de fuego: 62% hombres y 38% mujeres

-Con 4.4% de la población mundial, 🇺🇸 tiene la mitad del total de armas propiedad de civiles en el 🌎

2/x
1 de cada 4 adultos en 🇺🇸 tiene un arma. La propiedad de armas por raza en 🇺🇸:

-Blancos 46%
-Afroamericanos 21%
-Hispanos 17%

En 🇺🇸 hay 120 armas de fuego por cada 100 habitantes.
