Which liberal/Democrat will first open their mouth on more gun control?

Taking a cue from postal workers? School kids? Muzzies?

The media will only make it a gun control issue if the shooter is white. If the shooter is black, this story will go away within 24 hours.

Gun free zones could work in a gun free country. In United States civilians have been buying guns since they were invented. This is opposite of a gun free country. There are estimated 400,000,000 guns in civilian hands. That is more than all the combined total of guns in civilian hands in the world. Gun free zones in US is invitation to psycho’s to go in and kill as many defenseless people as possible before cops show up. When cops finally arrive, the cowardly psycho simply throws his hands up and surrenders. Then we must feed hi and clothe him and give him medical services paid by tax payers.

Only way this mayhem will reduce a great deal is if all Americans are allowed concealed carry without restrictions.

“Although earlier reports said the suspect had been fired, the chief said he was a “current employee” and added that the shooting occurred over multiple floors.”

I wonder why they have not released his name yet they know who he is?

The mass shooter is rarely black. Usually white and more recently some of Moslem stripe.

Not unusual. It often takes time to release the suspect's name. There's a lot of protocol they have to take. For one, they have to be 100% sure they know who he is. And then there's next of kin and whatnot.

Too many people think that if the name isn't released in the first ten minutes, it's a conspiracy. We'll know who he is soon enough.

I say it is the culture rot coming to full fruition. Starting with Dr. Spock and snowballing from there.

It’s not guns, and not “mental illness”. It is spoiled rotten, to the core.

The police are NOT in building 2 (public works). The PD is building 11 one block over.

He entered a municple building with a firearm?! No cops, no metal detector?

Or was the perp not checked because he was a public employee?!

I would agree with this. That's why there's no easy answers. Society is broken and it's going to get worse before it gets better.

Hmmm. No report on the weapon yet. But, as obxxx said in Brazil, you can buy machine guns in America on the internet virtually unchecked, so.......................
