Leftists set to use tragedy for political gain.
Police in Fordyce, Arkansas, responded to a shooting at the Mad Butcher grocery store on Friday resulting in two deaths and eight injuries.
According to the Southeast Arkansas Times, sources saw two groups of people holding rifles and shooting at each other.
The two people who died were reportedly innocent civilians while one of the shooters was shot and critically injured by police.
A responding officer was also shot during the melee, suffering non-life-threatening injuries.
Arkansas GOP Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders issued a message about the tragedy on X, writing, “I have been briefed on the tragic shooting in Fordyce, and I’m in constant contact with State Police at the scene. I am thankful to law enforcement and first responders for their quick and heroic action to save lives. My prayers are with the victims and all those impacted by this horrific incident.”

Democrat politicians and their supporters will likely use this horrific shooting to push their anti-gun narrative no matter what information is eventually revealed about the firefight.
