Maybe he just realized the “hope” and “change” was not the change he was hoping for but the same crap he and his ancestors had wanted to get away from.
The official figure is 13 dead, 1 wounded. You could do that with 1 pistol without a miss.
Yes, maybe a pill took away the anxiety attached to doing murder!
Looking through all the stories, I find a consistent 14 killed (including the shooter). A day later, we still don't have a confirmed count of the number wounded or injured. It does appear that he would have needed extra mags...even if he never missed. He was also wearing body armor.
“Being “quoted” is really an eye opener.”
Ain’t it though? Many moons ago I started running my own small business at my home, the local newspaper was doing a lot of stories on “cottage industries” at the time and they called and did a telephone interview. When I read the story I couldn’t recognize my own business, they got my first name wrong and I mean not even in the ballpark, not even a similiar sound. They misspelled my last name even though I spelled it out twice for the guy. He “quoted” me in such a screwed up fashion that I couldn’t even figure out how he could have come up with what he claimed I said. A few weeks later a local TV station was doing the same thing and they wanted to come out and do film. I quickly made up an excuse and asked them not to call again.
Like I said before, Linh Phat Vong is Vietnamese. Linh is the surname according to my Vietnamese wife. Surname is first in many Far East languages, IIRC. Check Korean, Kim Jong Il and his father, Kim Il Sung.
But as I’ve already said in a previous post responding to you, the police dept. of Binghamton says his real name is Wong. Voong is an alias surname. (They also mistakenly said he is of Vietnamese ethnicity.) Wong is Chinese, no doubt about it. It’s one of the most common Chinese surnames worldwide.
That was the name submitted to the government from a refugee processing center is all that I can surmise at this time.
Again, Voong is Hmong.
That could well be true. I would not be surprised that people from Laos lived in Vietnam. So did people from Cambodia and China.
Maybe you should look at these url’s:
When a subject could involve politics, Wikipedia is the last source that I use. The story said they went looking for someone who spoke Vietnamese. My tagline means I'm sorry sweetheart.
Why is it as soon as a Democrat get elected to the White House crazed gunmen go on rampages?
On Next Friday's 20/20, they are having what promises to be the most anti-gun episode ever. The title is, "If I only had a gun," and you can bet that ABC is going to try and make the point that a majority of people carrying guns would not use them in a situation like Birmingham.
Alert the troops. Massive Media Meltdown coming.
Have you heard of a motive? Check out serotonin syndrome, here, here and on the net. Go to reputable sources like PubMed.
I didn’t know that they had a name for it. Those strange plane passengers incidents seem to fall under this, too.
The dentist gives me a little pill to get me to my appointment. I don’t think I’d take the same pill and get on a plane - just in case.
A lot of kids are pressed to work in the Asian family restaurants or grocery stores you see everywhere. There are standouts who can work 60 hour weeks and still graduate valedictorian. However, not everyone's a standout.
He was not ethnically Vietnamese; he was Chinese.
Nothing will be said about his obvious insanity.
No, not anymore than any place Upstate...there are a ton of hunters around here who want Liberty and Justice!
This is a terrible tragedy.
We can count on all the usual politicians and lobby groups to use the dead to justify additional civilian disarmament.
