如此恶劣的枪击事件,有一点却一度让人费解……

Authorities said Sunday they still could not explain why a man with an AR-style weapon opened fire during a routine traffic stop in West Texas to begin a terrifying rampage that killed seven people, injured 22 others and ended with officers gunning him down outside a movie theater.

一名手持军用级突击步枪的男子,在德州西部的一个常规交通站点开枪。这场可怕的暴行造成了 7 人死亡,22 人受伤。枪手最后在一家电影院外被击毙。(当地时间)周日,有关部门表示,他们仍然无法解释为什么枪手(会这样做)。

换言之,开枪动机——或者说杀人动机——到底是什么?

而就在这两天,关于这场枪击案的更多信息被挖掘了出来。

其中最令众人不解的是:枪手在作案之前,曾拨打过报警电话 911。

那么问题来了:他对着报警电话说了什么?

答案莫名其妙到有些荒唐 ……

Hours before carrying out the mass shooting that left seven dead and over 20 injured in Odessa, Texas, the gunman, Seth Aaron Ator, had made erratic calls to 911 and the FBI, Odessa Police Chief Michael Gerke told reporters on Monday.

周一,奥德萨警局局长迈克尔 · 格尔克告诉记者,在这起造成 7 人死亡、20 多人受伤的大规模枪击案发生的数小时前,枪手赛斯 · 亚伦 · 阿特曾给 911 和 FBI 打了一些通古怪的电话。

FBI special agent Christopher Combs described Ator ’ s call to the bureau as “rambling.” It’s been confirmed the calls were made after the shooter lost his job at Journey Oil Field Services on Saturday morning.

联邦调查局(FBI)特工克里斯托弗 · 库姆斯表示,阿特打给 FBI 的电话内容 ” 杂乱无章 “。阿特周六早上失去了在 Journey 油田服务公司的工作,目前已证实,电话就是在他丢了饭碗之后打的。

Ator ’ s employer also tried to call 911, Gerke said, but he had already left his workplace by the time police arrived.

格尔克说,阿特的雇主也试图打过 911,但当警察赶到时他已经走了。

难道凶手仅仅是因为丢了工作、怒而开枪杀人?

无论凶手真正的开枪动机是什么,这场灾难都让许多人愤怒不已:那些死去的人何其无辜!

而在 Twitter 上,则有许多美国网友再次发问:难道还不严格控枪吗?

Some people say guns don ’ t kill people. That ’ s like saying tropical disturbances doesn ’ t cause hurricanes. Logic say guns can ’ t shoot by itself. However guns in the wrong hands can kill life.

有人说枪本身不会杀人。这就像说热带风暴不会引起飓风一样。逻辑来上说,枪的确不能自己开枪。然而,枪支在错误的人手中可以杀死生命。

If this doesn ’ t stop a broken person with a gun, no Republican mental health initiative or prayer will. GUN CONTROL NOW AND BAN ASSAULT RIFLES!

共和党的精神健康倡议也好,单纯祈祷上帝也罢 …… 如果这些都阻止不了一个有问题的人带枪,那么——现在就严控枪支!禁止使用突击步枪!
