Construction worker Chris Ogden was working on a scaffold above the building’s 33rd St. entrance when he watched in disbelief as the gunman — in a suit and carrying a briefcase — opened fire.
“He shot the guy in the head,” said Ogden, 23. “The guy went down. He took a second shot when he was down.”
The well-dressed shooter then “walked down the block, like nothing was happening, real casual,” Ogden said. “We were screaming from the top, ‘It’s the guy in the grey suit!’”
Well Bloomturd is going to start screaming in 5,4,3,.....
The Post & Mayor Bloomberg have set a speed record in politicizing this shooting.
Who is going to cover this one Barry or Moochelle ?
Good thing New York has strict gun control laws or someone might have gotten shot.
Well, this totally ruins An Affair to Remember and Sleepless In Seattle. :-(
its the obama way of doing things...but if he was a Liberal it will be kept very low key and quiet...
UNPOSSIBLE! NYC is a police state, and it is illegal to carry a gun unless you have one of them fancy permits, which are harder to find than a virtuous woman on 5th Avenue!
“cut down by a cop on foot patrol” (with a GUN!)

So this demonstrates perfectly what the gun-control moonbats don’t want to hear.
A psycho got hold of a gun in a city that has outlawed them. He walks down the street, shoots someone at point-blank range, then, with no resistance walks away, before randomly opening fire on innocent people, hitting 8-10 of them before the police can take him down.
One armed citizen would had him down after the first shot.
Mayor Bloomberg: Cops may have shot innocent bystanders in an attempt to kill the shooter...

“cut down by a cop on foot patrol” (with a GUN!)
Proving once again....”When guns are outlawed, only criminals will have guns”.
In the Great Depression these guys who flet like they lost everything used to jump off buildings
In Bernanke’s Greater Depression more and more depresed nuts are committing suicide-by-cop via mass murder..more copy cats ahead?
Let’s wait ‘til we get clear information on how the bystanders got hit.
In the meantime: handbag designer... shooting... more than enough evidence for ABC to schedule a three part series on gay violence. Oh.. wait.. it’s only possible conservatives they jump to conclusions about.
Eerily, just minutes before the mayhem, Mayor Bloomberg was warning about the dangers of “too many guns on the streets” on his weekly radio show.
“The argument guns don’t kill people, people kill people is one of the most disingenuous things you can say,” he said shortly before 9 a.m. while discussing tougher guns laws being proposed in Albany.
“It does take a person to pull the trigger, but if they didn’t have the gun... We are the only developed country in the world with this problem.”
Of course, Bloomberg and pals will milk this tragic incident for all it's worth in his attempts to see his "guns for government only" vision to reality. It's part and parcel of the nanny state paradigm.
I'm not exactly sure what he means by "we are the only country in the developed world with this problem" but I do know that Israel and Switzerland are two examples of "developed" countries in which firearm ownership is very widespread among the civilian population.
The shooter was, “a designer of women’s accessories until being laid off last year”. Hmmm... Watch the Democrat “mainstream” newsrooms go into full PC mode. This story will disappear faster than a typical Friday night shooting spree in Chicago.
The company, Hazen Imports, imports women and children’s clothing and accessories.
