At least one person was killed and four others wounded in a shooting at a homeless encampment in Las Vegas on Friday, police said.
The incident occurred in the area of Charleston Boulevard and U.S. 95 around 5:30 p.m. local time. Officers responded to a homeless encampment, where witnesses directed them to multiple victims, Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Lt. Jason Johansson said at a press briefing Friday night.

People are disgusting. How do you attack those that society has already failed utterly.
Best to withhold accusations until more is known.
Exactly which accusation do you wish me to withhold? The fact that someone is disgusting for killing the un homed?
It could have been a homeless person that shot them. Waiting until the facts are known is always better than assuming you already know without needing them.
So to you it’s not disgusting if a homeless person shoots a homeless person?
Sure it is. It’s disgusting that anyone shoots anyone. But when you start making assumptions that it was someone from outside preying on them- yore creating a false narrative for the purpose of agitating the us vs them crowd which is disingenuous.
Just wait and see what the investigation produces.
The only person who made that assumption was you. No one mentioned whether the shooter was homeless or not.

OP assumed it wasn’t. I made no assumptions. Learn how to read.
No telling, ATM, what went on here. I find that after-action reports are often far different than the headlines. And yes, I’m factoring in cop lies.
I demand an immediate investigation into why these homeless people were not armed and able to defend themselves. We should be handing out firearms at the soup kitchens to avoid these kinds of tragedies.

are you saying we should… “Arm the homeless”?
We can’t afford not to!

Are you being ironic? I actually can’t tell on Lemmy.
Ironic username.
Absolute sarcasm
Can you imagine how much Republicans would tantrum if homeless people were getting armed? And at this point, because of their own folly, there would be basically nothing they could do about it.

Presumably all the businesses with security cameras were closed.
Not when homeless people are involved. What’s unusual is them coming back at all.
