The death toll of the Virginia Beach mass shoot rose to 12 over night after what’s been described by the media as a “disgruntled employee” went on a shooting spree in and killed twelve people indiscriminately. More often than not, and this shooting is no exception, the media usually ignores the actual victims and insteads goes on ranting about politics, how this is Trump and the NRA’s fault and how we need more gun control. This is a different type of shooting though. Since the shooter isn’t white and didn’t have a “MAGA” hat, the media hasn’t gone into too many details about the shooter and his life. These are the victims of the so called “work place violence”:
