MADISON, WI—In the hours following a violent rampage in Wisconsin in which a lone attacker killed at least two individuals and injured six others, citizens living in the only country where this kind of mass killing routinely occurs reportedly concluded Monday that there was no way to prevent the massacre from taking place. "This was a terrible tragedy, but sometimes these things just happen and there's nothing anyone can do to stop them," said Maryland resident Jonathan Pallard, echoing sentiments expressed by tens of millions of individuals who reside in a nation where over half of the world's deadliest mass shootings have occurred in the past 50 years and whose citizens are 20 times more likely to die of gun violence than those of other developed nations. "It's a shame, but what can we do? There really wasn't anything that was going to keep this individual from snapping and killing a lot of people if that's what they really wanted." At press time, residents of the only economically advanced nation in the world where roughly two mass shootings have occurred every month for the past eight years were referring to themselves and their situation as "helpless."

Man Kills Husband And Wife On Las Vegas Strip Over YouTube Rivalry


A man named Manuel Ruiz has been arrested for a shooting on the Las Vegas Strip.
Ruiz is accused of killing fellow YouTuber Finny Da Legend during a live stream.
The conflict between the two stemmed from copyright infringement.

A man has been arrested in connection with a shooting incident that happened on the Las Vegas Strip on June 8. The man, identified as Manuel Ruiz, killed his rival YouTuber, Finny Da Legend, 8 News Now reported. The conflict between the two streamers started over copyright infringement, the report added, after reviewing old videos posted by the YouTubers. They had also argued over many issues. Finny Da Legend's wife was also killed. Police have yet to reveal the identities of the victims.

The incident happened when Finny Da Legend was live streaming on youtube, as police said that the shooting was captured on video, which was later deleted. The exact motive behind the incident is still not clear.

Ruiz (41) turned himself in on Monday and would be charged with two counts of murder, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said in a statement.


The police said that they heard gunshots near the Bellagio Hotel & Casino at about 10:40 pm (local time). Officers on patrol in the area "immediately ran towards gunfire, and they found two victims who were laying on the sidewalk suffering from apparent gunshot wounds," police said.

They found two people with gunshot wounds when they arrived on the scene. "Our officers rendered medical aid to both victims, but their efforts to save those victims lives were unsuccessful, and both victims were pronounced deceased at the scene,"

So Ruiz is headed to prison for the rest of his life (or maybe death row - not sure on Nevada).

Was it worth it?

Never heard of any of these cats until the shooting. Yes, we kill 'em in Nevada - and it would seem this would be an open and shut DP case.

Yeah, from the clip I saw, he has no defense whatsoever.

His only hope would be guilty plea in exchange for life.

Surely he must have known he'd be caught in a place like the Vegas strip, people and cameras everywhere?

Which brings me back to his thinking - was his "honour" a good exchange, in his mind, for, at best, a lifetime prison sentence?

Just watched the video. As cold blooded as you'd see.
