A gunman distraught over a recent breakup calmly reclined in a pool chair as he shot strangers at a birthday party and phoned his ex-girlfriend so she could hear the gunfire and screams of terror, San Diego police said Monday.
...
The victims were black and Latino and Selis was white, but police don’t think race played a factor.
“These victims were just in his vicinity when he committed this terrible tragedy,” police Chief Shelley Zimmerman said. “What started as a celebration of a friend’s birthday party turned into a tragedy of just epic proportion for all those in attendance.”
Selis, 49, was despondent and depressed over a recent breakup, though family and friends interviewed by police had no hint of any sinister plot.
As children splashed in the pool Sunday, a family soaked in a hot tub and others ate chips and hot dogs, the gunman stood out from the crowd of about 35 as he sat by the pool gate wearing a heavy black jacket on a hot day, said Demetrius Griffin, a guest at the party.
The shooting began after the man celebrating his 50th birthday approached Selis. Griffin assumed his friend, who was always welcoming, invited the man to join the fun.
Instead, he pulled a gun from his waistband, shot the party host twice in the torso and then opened fire on the party, Griffin said.
...
After shooting two people, Selis, a resident at the complex, called his ex-girlfriend to tell her what he’d done.
“Selis stayed on the phone talking to his ex-girlfriend as he continued to fire his weapon,” Zimmerman said. “It is apparent that Selis wanted his ex-girlfriend to listen in as he carried out his rampage.”

Unfortunately, there are a lot of sick b#@^&ds out there. These poor people.
San Diego on Sunday, Austin on Monday.
Sick people out there.
What was the color of his ex? And, perhaps more relevant, what was the color of the person for whom she dumped him?
Given that he just shot dark-skinned folks, and gave a pass to the Asians, I’m not going to buy the ‘race was not a factor’ without real evidence.
Don't forget the ambush of the paramedics and firemen in Dallas today. At least that perp wasn't taken alive.
Too bad one of the birthday party guests didn’t have a gun... they could have done the world a favor...
Instead—due to California's draconian gun laws—the result is a crowd of defenseless sitting ducks...
The murder of the car dealer (the old man), may have been a hit. George Webb has been tying these car dealer murders to what he calls “rat lines”. Rat lines are very sophisticated Pakistani smuggling operations that may well be connected to the Awan brothers, the Democrap party IT guys that infiltrated the house top secret computer system. If what Webb is true this country is F-ed.
So the lack of evidence is evidence that for which there is no evidence can only be refuted by the presentation of evidence?
He was previousy married to at least one woman named Martinez.
“There is a 2013 wedding registry at Macy’s for Peter Selis and a woman named Patricia Martinez. “
Most people don’t carry at a pool party. Not saying that can’t, but you are at a good friend’s pool party and you have changed into your swimsuit. If you carry, you’ve probably left your daily carry gun in your car where a kid can’t shoot someone with it.
You are not thinking “obvious defensive situation vs hostiles” at a friend’s birthday pool party.
You can’t really stop evil. Just pray for the dead.
There is sufficient evidence to create a rebuttable presumption of a racial motive in the selection of the victims. Mere statements by officials that we should ignore our lying eyes and believe them of faith should be greeted with the contempt that it deserves.
Do you also believe the government when they yell “Not terrorism related” before the evidence has even been gathered? If so, are you interested in a great deal on some beachfront property in Nevada or investing in a tropical resort on the Bering Sea?
Got a link for any of this?
I should have also said to start at about day 180 for the car dealer murders and the tie in to Steve Stevens (the supposed random murdered). Somewhere around day 180 to day 184.
