After the slaughter of nine worshipers at a South Carolina church last June, but before the massacre of eight students and a teacher at an Oregon community college in October, there was a shooting that the police here have labeled Incident 159022597.01. It happened on a clear Friday night at an Elks Lodge, on a modest block of clapboard houses northeast of this city’s hilly downtown. Unlike the butchery that bookended it, it merited no presidential statements, no saturation television coverage.
But what took place at 6101 Prentice Street on Aug. 21 may say more about the nature of gun violence in the United States than any of those far more famous rampages. It is a snapshot of a different sort of mass violence — one that erupts with such anesthetic regularity that it is rendered almost invisible, except to the mostly black victims, survivors and attackers.
According to the police account, more than 30 people had gathered in the paneled basement bar of the lodge to mark the 39th birthday of a man named Greg Wallace when a former neighbor, Timothy Murphy, showed up, drunk. Fists flew. Mr. Murphy ducked out the door, burst back in with a handgun, and opened fire.

George Zimmerman is selling the gun he used to kill Trayvon Martin, an unarmed black teenager, during a 2012 confrontation in Sanford, Florida.
“I’m a free American,” he told Fox 35 in Orlando. “I can do what I like with my possessions.”
Zimmerman wrote in the auction description of the Kel-Tec PF-9 9mm handgun that he plans to use some of the money to “fight BLM violence against Law Enforcement officers, ensure the demise of Angela Correy’s [sic] persecution career and Hillary Clinton’s anti-firearm rhetoric.”
Angela Corey is the Republican state attorney who charged Zimmerman with second-degree murder in the Martin shooting.

Deadly West, Texas, Fertilizer Plant Explosion Was ‘Criminal Act’: Feds

A 2013 fertilizer plant blast in Texas that killed 15 people and wiped out hundreds of homes was caused by a “criminal act,” federal officials said Wednesday.
The findings were revealed in a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives investigation into the origin of the deadly fire and explosion at the West Fertilizer Co. on April 17, 2013, in the rural town of West.
The explosion flattened the farming community of 2,800 people, just north of Waco, turning some 500 homes into rubble as residents tried desperately to flee the horrific scene. Over 200 people were injured.
The force felt was equivalent to that of a magnitude-2.1 earthquake, and a 93-foot-wide crater scarred the site of the fertilizer plant, where dangerous chemicals, including ammonium nitrate, were stored.

Warren Buffett says never to hold money during a war. Here’s a stagflation playbook for stocks.

The mood is squarely risk-off, with stocks down and crude and other commodities higher — but off much stronger levels from earlier — after U.S. officials raised the possibility of Russian oil sanctions. That’s as the world faces an ever-worsening humanitarian crisis in Ukraine, where the Russian invasion has reached day 12 and more than a million people have fled the fighting.
Against the backdrop of unpredictable and dangerous geopolitical upheaval, here is some wartime investing advice from Berkshire Hathaway’s BRK.A, -1.05% Warren Buffett, from an interview in 2014, the last time Russia invaded Ukraine.
“The one thing you can be quite sure of is if we went into some very major war, the value of money would go down — that’s happened in virtually every war that I’m aware of. The last thing you’d want to do is hold money during a war,” he said.
Buffett bought his first stock in 1942, when “macro factors were not looking good,” but insisted investors would frankly “be a lot better owning productive assets over the next 50 years” than pieces of paper.

Come November, 81-year-old Paul Gatling will get to do something that many Americans take for granted —he’ll get to vote for a presidential candidate.
Brooklyn District Attorney Ken Thompson vacated Gatling’s 1964 murder conviction on Monday and restored his rights, including his right to vote.
“I want my name cleared,” Gatling told NBC News before Thompson made it official. “Most of all, I just want to vote before I die.”
The delighted Gatling said his only regret is that President Obama won’t be on the ballot.
“That’s a big deal for me,” Gatling said. “I couldn’t vote for the first black president.”
But Gatling declined to say who he would vote for in November.
Thompson said full justice for Gatling was a long time coming.
