Deadly Seattle Center Shooting Response a Study in Incompetence?

Summary

A triple homicide at the Seattle Center's "Bite of Seattle" event resulted in public backlash against city leaders, Mayor Katie Wilson and Police Chief Shon Barnes, for mishandling the investigation and focusing on "gun violence" rhetoric. The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms (CCRKBA) criticized officials for blaming guns instead of focusing on the criminal actions of the 19-year-old and 15-year-old shooters, who were both illegally possessing handguns under Washington state law.
