“A large amount of ammunition was found near the body, leading investigators to suspect that he might be carrying explosives.”

There was a rumor a little while ago that the REAL shooter dumped his gun and ammo near the last victim. They were saying it didn't make sense for the shooter to empty his pockets of ammo before killing himself. The LEOs also, for some reason, are checking for a bomb.

I'm sure the simplest explanation is what really happened, but a conspiracy theory is hard to pass up.

Kolumbia started in 1967. It is all planned.

What you did was ride down infamous Rte US 1. Which is still mostly trailer trash but just a few miles from Columbia.

Ahhh man, you beat me to the Howard Cosell moment...I thought he said “Jungle Monkey”.
= = = = = = = = = = = =
I never took it as racial...Redskins had 3 small receivers to go along with Art Monk - Alvin Garrett 5’7, Virgil Seay 5’8 and another one 5’10 with Monk around 6’3 or so.
The 3 were known as “The Smurfs” and got a lot of mileage out of it.
The ‘faux pas’ was made after Garrett had completed a broken field run ....
Think that was during the start of a ‘crowd’ in the booth and each tried to ‘out quip’ each other

Her...

Turns out, she has a Twitter account. 17 year old Mother of 1....

How she can afford to be shopping at a Mall...

I’d rather not think about. Bad for my blood pressure.

Nearly every place in Maryland is a gun-free zone, thanks to the insane carry restrictions, except for gun shops, ranges and homes.

Hmmm, forgot about police stations and courthouses, and even then, presumably, only the po-po are allowed to have the weapons.

Probably just cruising. Lots of teeny-boppers just cruise the malls, thinking it’s the cool thing to do.

I live in Howard County and patronize the Columbia Mall on occasion. In general, the thug ratio is much lower there than in a lot of other malls. (At least during the daytime; Friday and Saturday nights have a somewhat different vibe.) There are pockets of undesirable areas in this county (mainly some of the Village Centers in Columbia, and the Laurel and Jessup areas along U.S. 1), but for the most part, this is a safe, pleasant place to live.

I don't know what to make of this shooting. If it was a domestic thing, then why the reports of the gunman shooting down into the Food Court? But if it was an intended mass killing, then why did the gunman stop after only two victims?

I have to admit, this one hits pretty close to home. I've been at that Mall plenty of times; I've eaten quite a few meals at that Food Court. It could have easily been me and my family running for our lives from in there. Prayers for the victims.

Where they were is where I take my young son all the time for haircuts. Not to mention the merry go round. Last time was after New Years. We only live 10 min away and my parents are right north off 29.

There are plenty of bad areas in KOLUMBIA, but the diversity-lovers are constantly in denial. All Kolumbia except the section I grew up in has section 8 as well as town homes and all in between. Guess where all the bad stuff happens?

I want to find out what the firearm really was. How does one shoot oneself effectively with a shotgun (longarm)? Maybe someone else really did shoot him...

>> Uh—I don’t believe the 2A gives us the right to shoot up a mall…

Apparently Democrats seem to think so.

You mean “Columbia” with a capital “C” not “K”.

Many a true word spoken in jest. I havent seen many shootings occurring in main street stores.

I think this guy let loose with Joe Biden's favorite weapon - a shotgun
