Maybe they don’t release it because it does not portray the image they want. Perhaps these people aren’t on the drugs that the government labels as so evil, but rather the pharmaceutical that they greedily approve.

I do realize that reading comprehension is difficult for some, but if you go back and read what I was replying to you would see that I never said I know much about this event. He was asking about tox screens being released from shooters in general, not this specific incident.

Racist remark

Isn`t it most likely this is a “hate crime” perpetrated by violent white racists? There seems to be a lot in the mainstream media about racist, facists, even Nazis running around and how dangerous they are. If the victims were Native Americans, and it seems most likely they were, given the location, aren`t the most likely culprit(s) some variety of Nazi, facist, KKK or other dangerous racist? Who else would have done this? From the information in the article, the house was specifically target, was known to be occupied by Native Americans, therefor, the only reasonable explanation is what I`ve elucidated above. Let`s hope they`re soon caught.

I knew the woman and her niece. They were not druggies nor involved in cannabis. From what I gather from the family, the shooter is known and shot through the house in a random fashion. They occupants were Native and were known activists fighting for Native Rights.

I was the 15 year old girl who was shot. We were doing nothing wrong and the bullet was intended for someone else not me or my aunt who was killed. R.I.P. Nicole Smith
