Ohhhh....this provides much needed context & clarity that I didn't have before. When I hear there's been a 'shooting' in America, while this is technically correct, I don't think it's one person shooting another. I hear 'shooting', and I think one or more shooters/multiple targets/largely indiscriminate just one group vs another.

By all accounts, this is very discriminatory & targeted. Obviously. I would word it as "Jonathan Joss murdered", then explain he was gunned down by a deranged homophobe.

Until just now, I genuinely assumed Mr. Joss got caught up in a mall or gang shooting. This is especially tragic & inexcusable, such targeted hatred.
