https://www.yahoo.com/gma/1-dead-8-...eal-party-102945930--abc-news-topstories.html
Nine people were shot -- one fatally -- late Saturday night at a private residence near Cincinnati, police told reporters at the scene.Three of those shot were children. The fatality is an adult female.

Police were called at 11:20 p.m. about reports of a shooting at a house in Colerain Township, said Colerain Township Police Officer James Love.

Family members tell ABC affiliate WCPO that a "gender reveal" party was taking place at the residence at the time of the shooting.

Love told reporters there was one or two shooters.

"You’re hoping that there won’t be situations like this," Love said. "These are the nights that you look back on and you regret that they ever happened. This will be one of those nights."

There is no name nor description of the suspect, Love said, adding that a motive is unknown.

Update: The woman hosting the party wasn't even pregnant: http://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/local/colerain/2017/07/17/mother/483867001/

there's really only 2 types of people i can think of off the top of my head who would do something like that:
someone with an extreme social justice mentality thinking these parties are "cisnormative"
an actual far right asshole who didnt realize gender parties are for when you announce a baby's gender
Or a gang related thing. It's Cincinnati- that's not an out of the field type of thing. There was some mass shooting a year or two ago that had everybody startled and upset, until it was found out to be some drug related thing, and then nobody cared.

I wonder if they knew there was a party or they were just going to go to the house anyway with guns ablaze. It's really sad that they'd endanger children and a pregnant woman like that. But this is what happens when drugs are involved.

Probably. If you're doing a gang related shooting, parties are a big target.

You just went from 'I wonder what happened here?' to 'oh its in Cincinnati so it might have been gang related' to 'well this is the kind of shit that happens when drugs are involved' without learning anything new. Are you trying out for a job at cnn?

But this is Cincinnati we're talking about. Either petty gang violence or a druggie.

Ohio shooting: 1 dead, 8 wounded in ambush at gender reveal party




Must admit I was not expecting this at all. Weird how Tumblrinas have poisoned my world-view. And I don't even go onto Tumblr.

Having said that, I'm now assuming something-something-something-drugs-something-something as the cause. Probably opiods if this is the part of Ohio near West Virginia.
Oh fuck, now I feel even worse, especially considering the fatally wounded was a woman...
 
I think this is a new thing. Or fairly new. Instead of going "Yeah, we're having a girl/boy" you have to have a party with color coded cake icing and party favors. It's really weird and nonsensical. If it's not lumped in with the baby shower then it's probably an excuse to get more free stuff from your friends and family. Although it's nowhere near as bad as those first period parties where you celebrate your mortified young daughter's passage into the worlds of cramps, blood and extra monthly purchases.

When I saw the thread title I immediately thought it was a troon party and someone was announcing that they were spacegendered dolphinkin or something stupid like that. Tumblr has ruined everything.
I wish we went back to the pre-ultrasound days when you couldn't give a child a proper name until you knew what gender it was out of the womb!
 
I've never heard of a gender party and my sister just recently had a baby. This must be a Yankee thing.

Sounds tacky as fuck, and so obviously a grab for more gifts that I can't imagine being impressed by it. You know what people I know who have kids did when they got that ultrasound? They just went around a couple days saying "it's a boy" or "it's a girl."

That's why I just assumed this was some troon shit.

I only started hearing about them in the past six years or so, but they are all the rage here in Australia. They're definitely something cooked up by Big Baby to make more money off people though, and while I am using the term Big Baby because it's funny I am being serious about the origin. They're sort of like sweet sixteens or ridiculously expensive rehearsal weddings, a local custom somewhere that has been latched onto by marketers and shilled as a status signifier.
 
how have you people never heard of gender reveal parties before?

do you have like, no friends at all who are married and having children? or shit even know them from work or whatever? or even relatives inviting you?

It is never called a "gender reveal party" where I live, but rather something uncool like "welcome party for little shitpiss" or such like.

baby showers you already know the sex of the baby

tbh its kind of a good way to tard cum your friends and relatives out of gifts for a second time, but then again finding the sex of the baby is also a big thing so

Yup it sounds like what it is, to bilk your defenseless friends and relatives for a second time.
Wonder when will they invent such thing as "baby's first tooth party" and "baby's first walk party".
