University of Texas-Austin, August 1, 1966 — 15 dead, 31 wounded



On a hot summer day in 1966, a military-trained sniper shot dozens of people from the observation deck of the University of Texas's main building, known as the Tower.

The shooting lasted more than 90 minutes, as officers responding to the attack were forced to move slowly and take cover often. Police got assistance from Texas students, who attempted to pick off the shooter from the ground with hunting rifles, restricting him to shoot through drain spouts for much of the attack.

Local police officers stormed the Tower and fatally shot the gunman. The incident spurred the creation of SWAT teams, and has drawn comparisons to the Las Vegas shooting because of the gunman's high vantage point.

In 2015, married couple Syed Rizwan Farook and Tashfeen Malik opened fire at Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino, California, where Farook worked as a health inspector. Police said the couple also planted three homemade pipe bombs in the building, though they failed to detonate.

The couple fled the scene in a vehicle and were killed by police four hours later. The FBI found that the two US citizens were "homegrown violent extremists" and were inspired by foreign terrorist groups.

Part-time mail carrier Patrick Sherrill shot 21 postal workers, killing 14 of them, at a US Post Office in Edmond, Oklahoma, in 1986. The attack ended when Sherrill fatally shot himself in the head.

The gruesome attack was the first of a string of homicides by postal workers between 1986 and 1999, and inspired the expression "going postal."

In 2009, Nidal Hasan, a US Army major and psychiatrist, fatally shot 13 people and wounded 30 others at Ford Hood, an army base near Killeen, Texas. It was the deadliest mass shooting to take place on a US military base.

A civilian police sergeant shot Hasan, paralyzing him from the waist down and ending the shooting. Hasan was sentenced to death in 2013 and remains in prison to this day.

Five years later, in 2014, Fort Hood was the site of a shooting spree that left three people dead and 14 wounded.

Ian David Long, a 28-year-old Marine Corps veteran, shot and killed 12 people and injured 18 at a country bar in Thousand Oaks, Los Angeles, on November 7, 2018.

At about 11 p.m. with a .45-caliber handgun that had been legally purchased, police said he shot a security guard, several employees, then opened fire inside the bar. It was estimated there were between 130 and 180 people in the bar.

He also killed a deputy sheriff before he killed himself.

Armed with an assault rifle and three handguns, police said 46-year-old truck driver Robert Bowers entered the Tree of Life synagogue and killed 11 people on October 27, 2018.

When he was arrested, Bowers told officers that "all Jews need to die." He was a frequent user of a social network called Gab, which attracted people on the right right, where he posted anti-Semitic messages.

It is thought to be the deadliest attack on Jewish people in US history.

On a Friday morning, a gunman opened fire at Santa Fe High School in Texas, killing 10 and injuring 13. Authorities charged 17-year-old Dimitrios Pagourtzis with capital murder. His trial is still proceeding through the court system.

Police said he used a shotgun and a .38-caliber revolver, both legally owned by his father. Police later found a journal that outlined Pagourtzis' plan for his attack and later suicide, but he ended up being taken into custody.

Police also discovered four pipe bombs at the high school, and a Molotov cocktail at his house.

Less than 24 hours after a mass shooting in El Paso, Texas, a gunman opened fire at a bar in Dayton, Ohio, in the early hours of Sunday morning. The shooting took place at Ned Peppers Bar, in Dayton's entertainment district, with an assault-style rifle, which could hold 100 rounds, police said.

Authorities identified the gunman as 24-year-old Connor Betts from Bellbrook, Ohio. Nine people, including Betts' sister, were killed in the attack. Another 27 were injured.

To escape the gunfire, people pushed down gates and were trampled. Dayton's police chief said officers killed Betts within 30 seconds of him beginning to shoot. It's unclear what prompted the shooting.

Police have charged 21-year-old Patrick Crusius with capital murder in the shooting at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas on August 3, 2019. At least 22 people were killed and 24 were injured.

Police say Crusius, who lived 650 miles away from the Walmart, posted a racist, anti-immigrant manifesto on 8chan, an online message board. It appeared 20 minutes before the attacks, and talks about a "Hispanic invasion of Texas," and turning Texas into a "Democrat stronghold."

The shooting is being treated as domestic terrorism and prosecutors are seeking the death penalty

Parkland, Florida, February 14, 2018 — 17 dead, 17 wounded

Gunman and former student Nikolas Cruz, 19, shot and killed 17 people and injured 17 more, armed with at least one AR-15.

The dead included students and adults. Cruz was charged with 17 counts of premeditated murder.

"It's a horrific situation. It's just a horrible day for us," Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel said. "It's a day that you pray every day that you get up that you will never have to see. It is in front of us, and I ask the community for your prayers, your support for these children and these families."

Many of the student survivors became outspoken activists for gun control legislation, launching the March for Our Lives movement.

The rampage ended when Huberty was shot by a San Diego SWAT Team sniper perched on a nearby roof. The shooting prompted changes to the police department in how it responded to mass-shooter scenarios

At least 26 parishioners were killed in the attack. Victims ranged in age from 18 months to 72 years. The gunman was found dead after a brief car chase.

Orlando, June 12, 2016 — 50 dead, 53 wounded



Before Las Vegas, the deadliest mass shooting in US history was the 2016 shooting at Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida.

Gunman Omar Mateen killed 49 people and wounded at least 53 at the nightclub before he was killed by Orlando police. As the club was hosting a "Latin Night," many of the victims were Latino.

During the shooting, Mateen called Orlando police and swore allegiance to the ISIS, although authorities found no evidence of communication between the terrorist group and the attacker. Still, the shooting drew swift condemnation from American Muslims. It remains the deadliest act of terror in the US since September 11

In October 2017, gunman Stephen Paddock opened fire on a crowd attending the Route 91 Harvest festival from his 32nd-floor room at the Mandalay Bay Resort in Casino.

The rampage lasted more than 15 minutes as panicked concertgoers tried to take cover, unaware of where the fire was coming from. By the end of it, 58 people were killed, and more than 850 were injured.

A police SWAT unit broke into Paddock's room and found the gunman dead by suicide.

Practically fired himself before they could fire him, brilliant.
Why is there so much blood gushing from his mouth nose and head? Does that mean a very good amount of blood is in the head? Even Throat shots doesn't bring out so much blood.
The guy looks innocent of the crime though.
One hell of suicide there. He felt the pains for less than 2 seconds huh
beautiful beautiful beautiful , I see you enjoyed each single detail here
He bullet would tear quickly through the jaw within half a second he would feel it like a pins prick , now he made mistake not hitting the brain as hard as it should but more of the face hence more of the blood , now here the real pain begins when the bullet breaks his skull and then tears through just the tip of his front brain.
