Mass Shooting:
At least six people were shot Monday, and a police officer was killed when a suspected gunman unleashed a barrage of gunfire inside a midtown Manhattan office building that houses the Blackstone investment firm and the headquarters of the NFL.

When the manhunt was ongoing, John Miller, CNN’s chief law enforcement and intelligence analyst, said it could possibly be a white guy, despite prefacing that gross speculation by saying “they [authorities] do not know who he is.”
“They know he is a male, possibly white; he’s wearing sunglasses. He appears to have a mustache. And that picture has been distributed to every police officer in New York City,” he added. CNN Host Erin Burnett also repeated the description. Even worse, the network knew better—they had the photo of the suspect.

Vivek Ramaswamy wrote, “Another brave police officer murdered in cold blood in New York tonight. This isn’t just tragedy, it’s the cost of weak leadership and anti-cop policies. No more coddling criminals. No more “defund the police.” Time to crush the spread of crime & make American cities safe again.”
Rep. Dan Goldman replied back, “He drove from Las Vegas to New York with an AR-15, which cannot be purchased in New York. He walked into an office building and started spraying the lobby with that AR-15, killing the police officer whose handgun was no match for the AR-15. This isn’t about New York. This is about Republicans persistently blocking common sense gun safety reform, including an assault weapons ban, that a super majority of Americans support.”
