Is that 0bama's 'Civilian Army' standing behind him? Estrogen is a deadly chemical agent, doncha know.. It reaped havoc on America on November 6, 2008 and we still haven't recovered.

I'll take the broad on the left.. or right.. They're both pretty.

Already mentioned and would work for one shooter, but what’s the history behind one or two additional?

IF the report that one of these people is disgruntled former employee who’s status recently changes, will Obama have him lifted up on those who are doing better in his economy?

It is my hope that this is the result of a jilted homosexual lover acting out.

You think it's Reggie?

Isn’t this just workplace violence? Like the heartbreak of psoriasis, it can strike anywhere.

As of right now, it appears you made an excellent call. Good job. I was leaning in the terrorist attack direction but only because of the report of multiple shooters. I should now better to believe early reports. They are almost always wrong.

September 12 post from Navy Yard blog advised employees about procedures for natural disasters, mass shooting events http://wapo.st/1bn1tb8

That's just prudent. I, myself, work on-campus on a Fed facility. I just rehearsed some 'safe room' actions and discovered some neat new ways to protect my coworkers. Is that act, being prudent and rehearsing, somehow mysterious and suspect, should something horrible happen here?

No ma'am, it's just prudent.

Will Obama be able to send forces to assist the Americans in trouble, or is this too remote a location to launch a rescue?

Since Sandy Hook, reporters will typically refer to any military style rifle as an M-16, AR-15 or AK-47, it seems.
