The shooter must not have heard about the seating arrangement at the State of the Union speech.

Aren’t there Wal-Marts in some states which have gun departments? I just wonder where the liberals will go with their outrage at this shooting. They might say that Wal-Mart encourages violence, yadda, yadda, yadda.

It wouldn’t be any more nonsensical than the liberal reaction to the Tucson shooting, where we were lectured about violent political metaphors setting off the deranged people.

Articles read as if a perp with a gun tried to rob the store, and was killed by police. If so, good for them. Justice done.

This is an awful horrible tragedy but please some one tell me why gun tragedies are only reported as news over and over when a progressive democrat is in office to politicize?

It appears they shot and killed him just because he was black . . .

The Associated Press

PORT ORCHARD, Wash. — A Washington state sheriff says a shooting at a Walmart has left one person dead and two sheriff’s deputies wounded.

Kitsap County Sheriff Steve Boyer says the two deputies along with another person are being taken to a Tacoma hospital. He says the incident in Port Orchard began at about 3:45 p.m. Few details are yet known including what may have sparked the shootings.

The conditions of the wounded aren’t immediately available.

A witness, Victor Meyers, tells KOMO-TV that he heard what sounded like one shot, then six more in rapid succession.

Port Orchard is about 15 miles west of Seattle across Puget Sound.

I thought we quit using inflammatory speech on TV. How could this happen?

Our local one does. I was just eyeballing a Remington 770 in .270 there last week. Under $300.
