Multiple people were killed and injured at a sweet 16 Birthday party in Dadeville, AL last night. Although law enforcement agents have not officially released the number of people killed or injured in the incident, photos taken by witnesses at the scene showed “the bodies of at least six teenagers on the ground,” according to Fox News. The witness observed white sheets covering their bodies.

At least 20 are reported injured but news accounts are scarce so far. This is developing and I’ll update as news comes out. Latest update says 4 confirmed dead. No word on a suspect/s.

What we can safely assume is that once again the gun fetish in this country has ended the lives of more children and forever damaged victims and families.

I find it pathetic that apparently 4 teenagers dead is no longer a high enough body count to warrant all day coverage by the media.

Dadeville was hit by at least one prior mass shooting when a gunman on Aug. 28, 2016, wounded five people during a party at the American Legion Hall. The town has a population of 3000.
