2 dead, 5 others hurt after gunman opens fire at a San Bernardino County house party

SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, Calif. - A house party in San Bernardino County takes a deadly turn as a gunman allegedly shot several people at the Adelanto event.

The San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department responded to a call of a homicide in the 10900 block of Bartlett Avenue in Adelanto Sunday a little before 1 a.m. Upon arrival, a 20-year-old man, later identified as Derrick Irutinabo, was found dead inside the house.

Later in the investigation, a second man, 20-year-old Maqwan Allen, was pronounced dead at the hospital after he was also reportedly shot from the same location. The shooting is believed to have left others injured and taken to local hospitals.

Martial law for the purposes of disarmament given the domestic unrest? Asking for the almost countless dead and injured and their families/friends

Or is the plan to let the sociopaths just… die off eventually once they’ve mowed down more people? Because that hasn’t happened fast enough, and coercive (even if sometimes well meaning) mental health actions aren’t working. COVID certainly didn’t take care of the problem.

It has been used in the past; Trump may have resisted to see if he could steal the election but the capitol police were able to hold the most violent of the dumbass freepers off, I’d like to see it done properly since the organized and more lethal ones are clearly gearing up for another attempt in partnership with conservative states.

Imagine Gov. DeSatan or Abbott or a future President Trump declaring martial law. There is no justification for martial law as long as the civilian courts are open.
