It is just plain sad that they have to bring up the Buffalo Bills player’s name. He had nothing to do with it and should not be tarnished with this crime.

Must have voted to reelect President You Didn’t Build That: he was too stupid to bear in mind you’re supposed to commit suicide first, then shoot everyone else.

So the shooter was the great grandfather of the step father of a Buffalo Bills player? Could be either someone he barely knew, or a close father figure. Hard to tell.

Exactly. Makes you wonder what “NA’s” motive is in mentioning it in the coverage for the UK publication.

As far as the killer’s motive, sounds like he had something against the owner and perhaps boss.

odd they don't mention what they were skilled with, an evil handgun a doubly evil "assault weapon" or a shotgun

I read in one account that he used a shotgun on at least on victim.

i thought as much since they didn't immediately identify the weapon... kinda like never stating the political persuasion when a RAT is arrested

This violence was due to the Bills player having a concussion.

You see.
