This is what a hero looks like.
Brandon did what no one should ever have to do -- stopped a gunman at his place of work from killing countless others.
Forever grateful for your courage, Brandon.
Grocery stores. Schools. Churches. Parades. Lunar New Year celebrations. Places everyone should feel safe. Last night’s mass shooting in Monterey Park, CA is the latest horrible reminder that Congress must act boldly and NOW to protect our people from gun violence.
Jill and I are praying for those killed and injured in last night’s deadly mass shooting in Monterey Park.
I’m monitoring this situation closely as it develops, and urge the community to follow guidance from local officials and law enforcement in the hours ahead.
Monterey Park should have had a night of joyful celebration of the Lunar New Year. Instead, they were the victims of a horrific and heartless act of gun violence.
Our hearts mourn as we learn more about the devastating acts of last night. We are monitoring the situation closely.
So many emotions right now, but I’m seeing a lot of irresponsible posts. This happened near where the festival WAS. The shooting didn’t happen DURING/AT the LNY festival. Fest was already closed thank god. Awful nonetheless, but def a diff narrative.
Heart goes out to the victims and their families. What should’ve been a night out celebrating the new year, met with senseless violence. MPK is a wonderful city that has given me so much. Hate seeing it on the news for this reason..
Today’s LunarNewYear fest was wonderful. 10000s of ppl out, joyful, celebrating our culture. I can’t believe the day ended like this. And so close to home. Monterey Park is over 65% Asian– that cross st is like 95%. Shooter still at large, I’m still in shock, waiting for updates
