You only have one life; why on Earth would you want to spend it in prison for a shooting???

@StevenCovey-ct3sx

The fact the national and international media wasn’t interested on reporting on the identity of the shooters had me suspicious.

@chicken

RIP Those who lost their lives (One Confirmed) and best hopes for all those injured for a full recovery🙏❤

@daviesmith1311

No pictures of the shooters?!?! Must not fit the narrative!!!!!!!

@ShawnDrymen

Those people who jumped and grounded them have some balls when the chance of being shot was relatively high

@sebastianhavestad9774

Very interesting that the media does not want to talk about the shooters.

@kmoto9808

I i love how we know EVERYTHING about the victims and NOTHING about the suspects!!!

@erniepotts322

I am in Kansas City and have been following the coverage since the news was breaking. This is the FIRST piece I have watched that had the shooters cuffed and we can see them. Thank you KTLA for thorough reporting on this tragedy.

@geoice23

This is sad beyond words. Can’t even celebrate together as citizens in the same city without this type of gutless circumstances. Prayers to all who were affected and their families. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

@pauljenkins6807

Shooters looked to be two young Africa Americans that were having some sort of street beef. The apparently, opened fire on each other but, somehow, shot almost two dozen bystanders. I find it hard to believe that they shot that many people when it’s suggested that they meant to shoot each other. Something doesn’t add up.

@415BayArea

I pray that Lisa Lopez Galvan rest in peace in heaven. It's horrific tragic events like this that keep me awake from big venues in large crowds. Because I always feel i'm just too paranoid and watching other people's actions and body language instead of doing what i'm supposed to be doing at that moment. Much love to Kansas City from a San Francisco Native and diehard 49ers fan.

@baysick11

Why isn’t this all over the news? We all know why

@ChrisWrightDVM

If the person's identity, and closeup photo, isnt released within a few HOURS, that alone tells me everything I need to know.

@BestiesForLife-rq6ov

I was up there but got out of there around 30 minutes before it happened, I had family members and friends who stayed for the rally but they all made it out safe and sound. Prayers for all of KC hope all your family made it out safe.

@BrandonMirrors

KTLA the only one with the balls to show the shooters race in the thumbnail. Good on ya

@John__-ie3od

And the shooters are? What race? See how quiet the media is.

@acmr3215

I stopped attending all large crowds of any kind several years ago, unfortunately this problem is only going to get worse before it gets better. Prayers and love to those affected and their families.

@lhart99

My deepest sympathy goes out to the victims, and their families, of this tragedy.

@SeanThomasCross

So why isn't their race being reported like every other time???

@readtruth6670

When nothing is sacred, nothing is safe.
