I got that much myself. No information about the "persons of interest" though. Also, I thought gangs were fighting each other and don't shoot up a teenager event what was an open attendance event for anybody in the community. Do gangs want to draw attention to themselves by shooting up a teenager event? Come on....It was suggested it was gang related. The fbi is now involved as well as atf, though.

Police said they have detained three persons of interest in connection with the shooting, including one person who was shot at by a Lee County deputy during a traffic stop along Ortiz Avenue, according to a source.
At a 2 p.m. news briefing, Fort Myers Interim Police Chief Dennis Eads said more suspects are being sought. He also made clear the incident was not an act of terror.
"We are currently working closely with the Florida Department of law-enforcement the Lee County sheriffs office the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Alcohol Tobacco and Firearm agencies," he said. "Everyone has put in a different role. There's a lot of investigative hours going into this. But I remain very resolved that justice will be served."
Did anybody find anything about the attackers? I cannot find any information about the shooters. If it was not terrorist (but mass shootings always are terrorist acts regardless of the motive) related, then why the information is withheld or is it withheld at all?
Sure it is, they said that at the first news release. Since then they've said nothing about the shooters. I find it somewhat fishy.Gang related.Did anybody find anything about the attackers?

These kinds of mass shootings shouldn't be deemed newsworthy based on the motives of the killer, I fail to see why it is less important, if the shooter was in a streetgang or if he was a terrorist
Yet, if this shooting had been committed for terrorist reasons this would be all over the news, but because it is a gang shooting it will now be ignored and not because it is less important but because the average nightly news watcher doesn't feel threatened by gang violenceThey haven't been charged with this crime as of yet.
And motive tells us what we arre potentially dealing with.
How do you propose to keep guns out of the hands of criminals? You understand that was the rationale for the 1968 Gun Control Act, right? And that it is obviously a tremendous failure. So what measure do you think will keep criminals from breaking the law?The United States provides the right for citizens to have guns. This is not going away. The debate should be about access, liscensing, and getting rid of selling guns in a parking lot; with the aim to keep guns out of criminals hands and allow them to remain in lawful citizens hands.Mass Shooting In Florida Nightclub - Report
Oh wait, it's in Florida which already has loads of guns.....
After spending days telling the Germans they are wrong for having strict gun control...... the right will probably give their reasons why there should be MORE guns.... right?
