called the shooting "a senseless tragedy."

As opposed to a sensible one?

[JOAT]

Funny how these shootings alway ramp up near elections and supreme court rulings.

[Tijeras_Slim]

the shooter held his gun sideways

Gangsta wannabe?

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

Looks like this was just another random shooting...

I doubt it.

[RDTF]

any word on the off duty female police officer that was there?

[diverteach]

Michael Douglas - "Been there done that"

[2harddrive]

How soon before the New York Slimes (and Osama Hussein Obama) clamor to take the guns away from everyone who DIDN’T do this?

[dragnet2]

I find myself avoiding the public as much as possible nowadays. Sometimes I can’t, but when possible, I make it a point. Just too many on edge zombies and twisted head jobs with smoldering fuses...

Very sad for this 42 year old Fireman working hard all his life.

[Lancey Howard]

Prayers for the dead and wounded and their families.
Thank God the shooter is dead.

I never go to the mall(s), however my husband and I found ourselves in one a couple weeks ago. It was crowded. At first I couldn’t figure out why I felt a bit nervous, and then I realized it must’ve been aprehension after all of these crazy attacks.

[NonValueAdded]

Prayers up for the victims and their families.

Does anyone know if this was a gun-free zone?

[TLEIBY308]

I was thinking the same thing,seems to be a lot of these incidents around election time.

"The woman said her husband was still inside, said Jackson, 43, of Palm Springs."

Wonder if she is from Palm Springs.

I feel so sad for the family of the fire fighter. I can’t imagine how devastated they are, especially the child if they understand that Dad was retrieving a toy forgotten. As a dad, it hurts to think of my child feeling that guilt

Funny how these shootings alway ramp up near elections and supreme court rulings.

The same thing happened here in CO at the time of the Columbine shooting. There was a vote scheduled for the next day about CCW (IIRC) here in CO. Our RINO governor at the time, Owens, who was looking for a reason to kill that bill, used Columbine and managed to delay the vote for several years. That action, (years long delay) along with a lot of other actions by Owen managed to destroy the Republican Party here.

I am a firm believer in evil, and these types of incidents only serve to cement my beliefs.

For CO, Columbine managed to not only delay the vote, but also was a tool that helped destroy the Republican Party.
