It absolutely is a daily occurrence.
That is quite true. An unfortunate and sad situation all around, really.Not to excuse or make light of the completely inexcusable gun violence that occurs in America, but keep in mind that a good amount of those mass shootings are gang violence and not random indiscriminate killings in public places. And not that that is great either, but it is different than random mass shootings.
Oh, no not that. My apologies, seemed like you were referring to shootings in general.
So I was listening to the live feed, they do not have the situation contained yet right? Seems like not that much radio chatter for what is still considered an active incident. Or do I have my facts wrong?
I am from NJ, have friends in the area, so do have a vested interest in the whole situation.
I was listening to the feed like 30 minutes ago, and they said 2 shooters were down at some point. So i had assumed it was over, is it not?

Any clue as to whether this was an ambush, or a robbery gone wrong?
At least two shooters were firing from a storefront on MLK at anyone who passed by. It is believed that one other person was shot inside the store, JC Kosher Supermarket, located at 223 MLK Drive.
The two shooters, a man and a woman, were dressed in black. They arrived in the area in a U-Haul van, each carrying long guns into the supermarket, police said in radio transmissions. At 2:44 p.m. police reported in radio transmissions that "pipe bombs" were located in the U-Haul.

Also near the university where I went to school because I recognized the area as part of the bus route I took. Stay safe!Neat. A little over a mile from my apartment. Awesome. Totally rad.
Fuck anyone who doesn't believe in strict gun control laws.
It's a developing story, so who knows. This is what our local news says:
As always, most early reports are wrong so we'll see
I know speculation isn't helpful in these situations, but the store in question seems to be a small kosher supermarket, next door to a synagogue. It's possible there's a religious angle involved. But obviously we should wait until we hear the facts. There hasn't been any reported news on that potential angle, as far as I've seen.Thanks for the quick response. This all sounds like a suicide mission to me

It's still random and indiscriminate for innocent bystanders catching strays :-(Not to excuse or make light of the completely inexcusable gun violence that occurs in America, but keep in mind that a good amount of those mass shootings are gang violence and not random indiscriminate killings in public places. And not that that is great either, but it is different than random mass shootings.
As if a cops life is some how more meaningless when lost to lobbied gun violence...
It's definitely not, I hope I didn't give that kind of impression.
Until we know more I will keep my guesses to myself, but the place and lack of a theft motive so far could make one wonder.I know speculation isn't helpful in these situations, but the store in question seems to be a small kosher supermarket, next door to a synagogue.

Some outlets saying this started as a drug deal gone bad.
True. I guess we'll have to wait and hear more :/. Truly a sad situation.Who carries a long-gun to a drug deal in Jersey? People will notice that shit.
If they in fact had pipe bombs, I'm thinking this is definitely not a drug deal gone bad.Who carries a long-gun to a drug deal in Jersey? People will notice that shit.
This reminds me of The Wire. When Omar has a shotgun under his trench coat and it's so big... Goes into store etc broad daylightWho carries a long-gun to a drug deal in Jersey? People will notice that shit.
Let's just keep selling guns like bread, definitely a great idea.
State borders aren't really a thing
