No details yet. Hundreds of police on the scene according to an eyewitness.

[gaijin]

TROP?

[subterfuge]

Sorry g, not sure what that means.

[DouglasKC]

One a day? New strategy?

[Carling]

Regardless of motive, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is going on in this country right now?

[Responsibility2nd]

Obama will comment shortly...

But first - He wants to give a shout out to his homies!

[TChris]

Wow. The world is coming unglued.

Anyone who doesn't possess 1) Guns and 2) a Concealed Weapon Permit, I strongly recommend you obtain BOTH ASAP.

Remember, the police usually show up AFTER the shooting is over.

The Religion of Peace (TROP).

Probably more likely a disgruntled client going after his attorney or a domestic dispute taken to work.

[Vendome]

Say it ain’t so.

[subterfuge]

First thing I thought yesterday is that we should all be on high alert. My daughter just drove past the scene and says there must be hundreds of police down there.

[skully]

TROP= The Religion of Pieces

[TomGuy]

I didn’t hear it, but I read several posts yesterday that indicated Shep and Kay Bailey Hutchinson would not speak the Ft. Hood attacker’s name for fear it had some meaning and might be a trigger to other terror cells.

hmmmm.

Was this shooter in FL of the Religion of Peace persuasion?

[Vendome]

The, Religion, Of, Peace. TROP

[Carling]

My thoughts as well, although nothing would surprise me at this point.

[Rutles4Ever]

Let’s not jump to conclusions: Just because these people have bullets in them doesn’t mean they were shot.

Obama: “we Americans “do not consider ourselves a Christian nation”

That is WTF is going on.

[MikeWUSAF]

I want to first give a shout-out to Mickey Mouse!

[fujimoh]

“Regardless of motive, Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is going on in this country right now?”

Ditto ... my radar is up.

[Vendome]

Soooo...., they are being lead to their deaths??? /s/s/s

[massgopguy]

If this guy stayed in a hotel room any time during his lifetime that had a Gideon Bible in the drawer, that will be the lead.

[Vendome]

Why Barry O.? Cuz’ you frum a Goofy Planet?

Word out!

[Califreak]

I believe Lord Zero’s election was a clarion call to the latent jihadists in our country.

[TChris]

Anyone injured in an office shooting or who loses a loved one in an office shooting should SUE the company for its prohibition on guns, if it has one.

These incidents should make it OBVIOUS that such prohibitions only disarm the innocent.

Until the lawyers advising corporations come to understand that there is serious liability associated with DISARMING their employees and leaving them defenseless, they will endorse the same knee-jerk policies.

STOP DISARMING DEFENDERS!

TROPOS (if you know what I mean)

8 wounded after shooting reported in downtown Orlando

[Rutles4Ever]

The FBI cannot confirm that a crime has occurred. Apparently it was the upcoming holiday stress which led these people to ingest ammunition.

[socal_parrot]

Prayers for the victims and their families.

[ctdonath2]

Great strategy, given the goal. Too early to take that beyond a gravely entertaining hypothesis though.

[DouglasKC]

What time did the muzzie start shooting yesterday?

[SE Mom]

Trying to get details- I live about 10 minutes from here...

[blues_guitarist]

With their "brother" in the Whitehouse, these enemies of the West are more emboldened than ever.**

Wouldn't be surprised if these attacks are all coordinated and that there are many more to come.


When do WE begin to fight fire with fire?**

Just sayin' . . .

** Disclamer: The above comment is only speculation based upon preliminary reports. The writer is in no way trying to incite violence, so spend your government dollars investigating the REAL, MUSLIM terrorists and not patriotic Americans!

[cynwoody]

Probably more likely a disgruntled client going after his attorney or a domestic dispute taken to work.

You are probably right. But the timing certainly raises the possibility of Sudden Jihadi Contagion.

[MrB]

Maybe just TPOSR.

[Vendome]

Hmmm..., perhaps they acted stupidly.

Sad.

[clintonh8r]

Alan Grayson (Insane, FL) dying quickly?

[MikeWUSAF]

I know I’m plugged into the news more than your average person but I too sense a great evil moving in our country and world.

[ZX12R]

The FBI cannot confirm that a crime has occurred. Apparently it was the upcoming holiday stress which led these people to ingest ammunition.

But whatever happened, they already know it wasn't terrorism.

[spectre]

How about a big "shout out" to my friend Barry Rand, CEO of AARP!

sw

[Petruchio]

0bama’s fault.

[Ann Archy]

I thought of him too!!!

[SE Mom]

What are you hearing? Update when possible please..

Multiple injuries are what I’m hearing- probably shooter still at large..

[Dewey Revoltnow]

Anyone who doesn't possess 1) Guns and 2) a Concealed Weapon Permit, I strongly recommend you obtain BOTH ASAP.

Screw the permit. That just lets the government know where to go to confiscate. Unfortunately, all I had was a b.b. gun and my dog ate it.

[reagan_fanatic]

LOL! Would be even funnier if it were not based on fact.

[Marty62]

The MEDIA excuses EVERY mass MURDER as some poor MISUNDERSTOOD wackjob.
As long as AMERICANS allow this mindset to continue...the MURDERS will continue.

[skully]

LOL!!! True dat!!

[TChris]

That just lets the government know where to go to confiscate.

There's nothing to confiscate.

I gave all mine away to friends as gifts. I forget their names now.

[twigs]

Later than this. But it’s an interesting point. Mosques meet Friday at noon.

[NonValueAdded]

Reports are sketchy and prol'ly just as wrong today with this one as was the case yesterday. But ...

• Three 911 calls came in at the same time from different parts of the city
• I-4 shut down, eastbound lanes just opened
• cop in apickup truck came screeching up to the ER, jumped out and ran in. Newsies had to jump out of the way.
• one dead on the 12th floor and one on the 8th
• people barricading themselves into their offices, calling 9-1-1 for help.

TV-9 out of Orlando.

[subterfuge]

Police looking for ONE suspect, still.
