American Gun Violence Holocaust:
13,482 Americans Killed, 27,810 Injured in Gun Violence, so far in 2016, Completely Ignored by Corporate Media and Politicians November 29, 2016
24 Americans were killed, 41 were injured in gun violence incidents, in just one day, on November 28, 2016. *** During the first 10 months and 28 days of 2016, there were 13,109 Americans who were killed and 27,810 who were injured by other Americans, in 52,175 incidents of gun violence, including 357 mass shootings. *** Editorial Note: Tens of thousands of Americans are killed every year in domestic and workplace gun violence, tens of thousands more are injured. All of that is for the benefit of the gun industry, and indirectly for the benefit of the war industry, both of which promote violence in the United States. Zionist-controlled politicians and media are dead silent about this continuous holocaust, which is perpetrated against the American people on daily basis. However, they wait for a rare gun shooting incident perpetrated by a Muslim, then they repeat mentioning it, as incitement against Muslims generally, and Muslim Americans in particular, ignoring the continuous American holocaust, which is perpetrated by non-Muslims. The objective is to justify the continuous US wars and invasions of the Muslim World since 1990, in order for the war industry beneficiaries to justify the enormous and unprecedented US national debt, which has reached more than $19 trillion, as a result of the permanent-war military spending. For example, in 2015, there were 53,228 shooting incidents, resulting in the killing of 13,415 Americans. Of these, there were only two incidents perpetrated by Muslims and resulting in the killing of 18 Americans. The Zionist media, like Fox News and CNN, together with the war industry agents and Zionist-controlled politicians kept mentioning these two incidents while totally ignoring the other 53,226 incidents, which resulted in the killing of 13,398 Americans! The end outcome is that the American people are indeed actual victims of a continuous warmongering campaign, Islamophobia, and a daily holocaust, perpetrated against them by the war industry beneficiaries and their agents in the media and politics.

November 29, 2016 One person died and three were injured in a shooting late Monday night near a restaurant in Union City, police said. The shooting occurred between 9 and 9:30 p.m. at Dyer Road and Courthouse Drive in the parking lot of the Union Landing shopping center near a Texas Roadhouse restaurant. Two of the injured victims were transported to a local hospital. Police said three suspects have been detained, and there's no danger to public safety. They said the shooting may be connected to a sideshow gathering in the parking lot. Union City police said they have had a rash of sideshows in the area, and a police suppression team was in the vicinity when the shots were fired. Those officers rushed to the scene to find one person dead in a car riddled with bullets. No further details were available. Union City: One dead, two wounded in shooting at Union Landing

UNION CITY — One person is dead and two others were wounded wounded in a shooting outside a shopping center Monday night, authorities said. Three people are in custody, police said in a statement. The shooting happened at about 9 PM near a Texas Roadhouse restaurant at the Union Landing shopping center. The gunfire appeared to come from people in one vehicle firing on people in auto, Sgt. Brandon Hayward said in a phone interview. It did not appear that the fire was returned. Hayward said police believe the parties “we acquainted with one another.” He declined to elaborate, other than to say none of them appear to have gang ties. Officers were nearby and responded immediately. The three suspects were pulled over in a vehicle about two blocks away and arrested. A firearm and other evidence was found in the vehicle. One of the wounded men tried to flee at high speeds in another vehicle, but was stopped and taken to an area hospital where is in critical condition but expected to survive Hayward said. That person may have been a passerby who was attempting to get to a hospital on their own, Hayward said. The other wounded victim was also hospitalized in serious condition. The names and ages of the victims and people arrested were not immediately released. Police were at the shopping center because there has been a recent significant increase is side shows there, Hayward said. Police now plan to “saturate the area for the next week” with patrols, Hayward said, but he added that he does believe an ongoing threat to public safety exists. “We’re pretty confident we got everybody,” he said. http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2016/11/28/union-city-three-people-shot-monday-night/ *** Standard ReportsPrimary tabsThe following links represent reports that are frequently requested.
