Yes,this was an absolutely horrible tragedy. I pray the town and its people can heal and recover from this. What a shame.
One thing I couldn't help but notice in all of the news coverage of this-every story i've read or news report I heard mentioned how the gunman "sprayed" bullets. Did I miss something in the stories that said he used full-auto weapons,or is this just more anti-gun crap from the usual suspects?

It’s Anti-gun crap.

Some down here can shoot a single shot 12 guage as fast as you can an 870. According to the County Sheriff , the fella had an SKS,Bushmaster and a .38 .

The story mentioned that McLendon had a list of people who he thought had ‘done him wrong’. Has any more been learned about that?

Quote from the article: “It’s just a bad situation — a bad, bad situation.”

Hope that helps . . .

That list (written a year ago) has been disproved by the DAs’ office.

I don’t know how the businesses came into play.Much of the info that came out yesterday seems to be spur of the moment thoughts.LEOs and such are slowing everything down so as to get as much real info as they can aquire.
