The media has been strangely silent after a 17-year-old was arrested for shooting nine people Friday at a football game in Mobile, Alabama.

Deangelo Parnell, 17, has been charged with nine counts of attempted murder after turning himself into police on Saturday morning, according to a spokesperson for the Mobile Police Department.

“This is a cowardly act by an individual who didn’t know how to deal with a situation,” said Mobile Police Chief Lawrence Battiste.

Footage from the stadium shows hundreds of attendees scattering as multiple shots are fired.

Users on social media were quick to point out the media’s silence on this attack.

Nothing to see here people. He’s not white 👀 — SteelRain95 (@SteelRain95) August 31, 2019

I’m confused. Why isn’t this all over the MSM outlets? I can’t put my finger on it. What. Could. It. Be? — PinstripesWS2019 (@titans2019) August 31, 2019

That’s not an #AlabamaFootballGameShooting that’s a #MassShooting If you allow the left to control the language, they control the narrative The Left has defined what a mass shooting is. They need to be held to that standard. The Georgia college shooting was also a mass shooting — Al Q. Holic (@Johnnywhales) August 31, 2019

To be fair, CNN did report it but I had to search for it. It was not on their front page since it doesn't fit their narrative exactly. pic.twitter.com/gntmwHFblQ — Striker Fett (Ret) (@StrikerFett) August 31, 2019

Never going to be covered by MSM bc he’s black! — good american girl (@gowdygirl1) August 31, 2019

Not gonna got national media because it doesn’t fit the narrative. — Kris777 (@KrisOverton) August 31, 2019

I realize this was an Off The Cuff crime and met no direct #DNC narratives but I believe it’s worthy of national attention.. Can’t we be color blind with crime.. 😕🇺🇸 @OANN @FoxNews — YouKnowMyName (@FlaCracker3) August 31, 2019

It’s also notable that current gun control proposals would not have prevented Parnell from illegally obtaining a firearm.

How did he pass the background check?

Did his parents allow him to buy the gun? — Wallace (@Steveaaaaa) August 31, 2019

Good thing there was a law in place preventing 17-year-olds from carrying a firearm in public. Laws against such things stop would-be criminals in their tracks. Oh, wait a minute. Sorry . . . my bad. — Dave Brassonez (@DaveBrassonez) August 31, 2019

Congressional Democrats have vowed to bring forward gun control legislation to the floor when they return from recess in September.

Could the red flag laws used to keep “mentally ill” citizens from attaining firearms be used to deem President Trump unfit to serve under the 25th Amendment?
