I believe I have from what I've seen. If I haven't feel free to report the posts and we'll take it from there.

The reality is, this was a fight between two yahoos who'd been drinking all day and the fight escalated. This was not about any of the other BS.

I know you report and post a lot of early stuff which is good, but with a thing like this maybe you should wait till more facts are available ??
NO one can say what happened or why or to who, so kinda pointless to discuss it at all, at this point.
If it was a tailgater who shot someone, then only thing I would take from it is dont tailgate or get into any arguments, and look out for this type person.
you never know who might be a dangerous person.
you might say something rude to some person , not knowing he has been feeling like killing someone for days, and he has a weapon on him, and
now you just focused him on you.
Similar thing with road rage shootings, piss off the wrong person and you might get shot.
Even if you carry a gun, the way it usually works is you will be shot before you can get to your gun, so better to just use your brain and avoid
this type person and situation.

Sometimes the info is never made public, about what all happened and the circumstances.

Have you read the whole thread? Have you seen the articles, not just the tweets, that have been posted about the incident? Whatever lead up to the fight is unclear, but the details surrounding the actual incident are.

People kill me coming for me and you haven't even read the actual details, just the posts in this thread. Adding to that, there are articles all over the internet about it. It ain't hard to find the details about the shooting now. It's not just you, it's a few folks in this thread. I don't post to be first. I post to share news and then add details as they become available.

News like this will come out quickly enough whether a staff member posts it or not. In many cases, it turns into a multi-thread issue if someone does not post it quickly enough.

I am thankful we have people like WG and other posters who share any and all news related to the Cowboys as quickly as they do. I may not always care about every news article, tweet, etc. posted, but I appreciate the chance to see it and decide for myself if I want to read it or not.

Then why in the world should I wait for more facts to post if these are the actual facts being posted? I'm legitimately curious. People can discuss the incident all they want, but the facts are still what they are. If you want to wait before formulating an opinion, that's your choice. But when news breaks about a shooting and the police have given a statement, then I'm not sure what you're waiting on.
 
A Human life will always be worth million times more than any Football game or team. It's a shame that some people take football so seriously that they could think about harming another human being over it.

True.
 
Expect a crackdown on Tailgate activities a la the Houston Texans a couple years ago when they had issues controlling gang scuffles in the parking lots before the game.

I think you need a game ticket or tailgate pass to get into many of the tailgating areas in Houston now

I see your point and I did not mean to criticize, or say it should not be posted, I personally dont see the point, but that is just me.
But your right someone or many were bound to post about it.
 
WFAA reported that the shooter and victim did not attend the game but were tailgating in Lot 10.

just disregard my post, I just saw people speculating all sorts of things that may or may not be right ,and posted that more info is needed.
But I guess people like to talk about events with no real details on what happened lol, so carry on.
I will wait for more info or just forget about it.
Sad that is happened, but it is how the world is now.
