Eagles CB Darius Slay extremely upset after another mass shooting takes place in Texas - “Can’t go nowhere in this world without it getting shot up”

Darius Slay, like so many others across America, was very upset about the mass shooting that took place in Allen, Texas, over the weekend. A gunman exited a silver sedan and began shooting at an outlet mall in the Dallas area. Per authorities, the gunman killed eight and wounded seven before being killed by a police officer who was in the proximity of the mall.

The Eagles cornerback tweeted out his anger over the shooting, expressing that people are not safe anywhere in America:

The shooting was the latest of what has been an unparalleled string of mass killings in the United States. The victims' ages range from 5 to 61, according to a hospital spokesperson. Some witnesses described the gunman as dressed all in black and wearing combat gear.

Video taken following the gunman's death seemed to show an AR-15-style rifle next to his body. Mass killings are transpiring at an astonishing rate in the United States in 2023.

As stated by a database run by The Associated Press and USA Today together with Northeastern University, it's an average of about one per week.
