No Reports of Any Kenyan Victim After Saturday Mass Shooting in El Paso, Texas

Paul Ereng, a former Kenyan athlete living in El Paso, Texas says there are no reports so far of any Kenyan victim of Saturday’s mass shooting in the area.
20 people were killed and more than 20 others injured after a sole gunman opened fire at a Walmart store in El Paso on Saturday.
Speaking to Daily Nation, Ereng, a former 800m Olympics champion, said many Kenyans living in Texas frequent the store for shopping.
“Thanks God we are safe. This is my mall. We pray and at the same time we are very sad for those who have lost life and those injured. This is a very sad day here in El Paso,” Ereng said.
The gunman, who surrendered to police after the shooting incident, has been identified as Patrick Crusius, a 21-year-old man from Allen, Texas, CNN reported.
El Paso police chief Greg Allen said authorities were examining a manifesto from the suspect indicating “there is a potential nexus to a hate crime.”
The attack ranked as one of the deadliest mass shootings in modern US history, according to CNN.

But some countries like Kenya have one out of every six policemen on duty with MP's, senators and cabinet secretaries. These duties include carrying the hand bag etc. Big difference.

It is very sad and unfortunate that evil men continue to live among us.The reality is that this is not the last time. This will happen again. Iam not a prophet of doom,but just stating the reality based on history.
With all due respect to people of God,why thank God for those who survived the mall shooting.How about those who dont shop there should they thank God as well?Worst, why didnot God protect those who were shot,and for those who were killed,what should they say to God, most certainly not thank-you.
Yes, I understand that sometimes there are no right words to express a situation like this,but to thank God is a little misplaced.I would rather people of God in such situations to ask Him why it happens,and why he does not intervene when he has all the power to...Basically ask God to give a satisfactory answer if there is such athing. My condolences to family and friends of those who lost their lives,and those hurting.My two cents.

As African countries are destroyed by tribalism, western countries are destroyed by racism, tribalism and anti immigrant rhetoric. There has been a rise in these killings as the west make their countries white again. Another one took place on the same day in Ohio, killing 9 and injuring 26.
We need to understand that every country, whether developed or third world has its share of social, economic and political issues.
The age of information has made the world a small village. Soon, there will be no experts in the world. We will all be experts in our areas of operation.
We live and learn!!

Sasa wewe, unachukia mwenzako Kenya, rangi nyeusi, nywele nyeusi kama wewe. Kiasi cha kutoajiri mtu asiye wa kabila lako au hatari zaidi, kutopigia kura kiongozi atakaeleta maendeleo nchini na kupigia mwizi na jambazi sugu kwa sababu ni wa kabila lako. Baada ya kuhamia ulaya, mass hatred na mass shootings kama hizi eti zinakushangaza. Kwa kweli wewe, kichwa chako kizuri? Hatred, tribalism, maligning, nepotism of any form should be vehemently condemned. The lessons we learn everyday, hata hapa marekani si salama. Heri hata tunapokaa hapa, tutengeneze ya kwetu! Tunapokaa na kula na kuchapa kazi na kuponda raha na watu kutoka kila sehemu ya ulimwengu, hebu na tupeleke huo huo mfano kwa mawasiliano, kazi, kura na biashara yote huko nyumbani. It is very very unfortunate and sad. Mungu tafadhali, Linda watu wako.
