Chilling details of Cupertino quarry killings
San Francisco Chronicle ^ | October 5, 2011 | Jaxon Van Derbeken, Kevin Fagan, Henry K. Lee,Demian Bulwa

An intense manhunt that stretched into Wednesday evening failed to turn up any sign of a truck driver at a Cupertino quarry suspected of methodically shooting nine co-workers before dawn, three fatally, then shooting a woman whose car he was trying to steal.

Police from numerous agencies, the FBI and the U.S. Marshal's Service combed a neighborhood on the Cupertino-Sunnyvale border looking for Shareef Allman, 15-year employee of the Lehigh Southwest Cement Permanente Plant who authorities say opened fire during a routine workplace safety meeting at 4:15 a.m.

Allman, 49, of San Jose, came into the meeting, "said 'hi' to everyone," grabbed a cup of coffee, then went into a reception room before returning with a .40-caliber handgun and a .223-caliber rifle slung on his shoulder, according to authorities and a witness, Kerry Shaffer, 50, a temporary worker at the plant.

Just a normal guy. Except for:

"Allman has a minor criminal history that includes five convictions for driving on a suspended or revoked license, authorities said. He served a short jail stint for a 1992 misdemeanor conviction for possession of stolen property in Santa Clara County, and he has a misdemeanor conviction for disturbing the peace in San Mateo County. He has sometimes gone by the name Frank Allman."

I'm normal and have never had these issues in my life.

Any chance this was a sudden R.O.P.-related event?

I am not sure of this guys Mo but we are seeing more of this BS.

I believe we are seeing social pressure bubbling to the surface.

I missed the part about him being one of the Allmans

He should have shot the Sharrif.

Folks we got trouble brewing.
Stay alert.

After reading the article I still think this is a manifestation of social pressures.

I dont think it sounds like it was a jihad thing, but you are correct.

To be fair, there were cold-blooded murderers before Obama was elected.

I don’t think we have seen this frequency of folks “popping” in the past.

ozero is the enabler, the fascilitator.

I hope I don't get banned for saying this, but I think many of the vermin would be flushed out if ozero died unexpectedly.

ozero is their hero ... the one that seems to do nothing to help legitimate law enforcement keep America safe.

Our laws are good but the enforcement is weak ... and they know it.

It's open season on Americans and we'd better "get that real good"

“sudden R.O.P.-related event?”

If it turns out that it was, public officials will appear at mosques and issue apologies to Imams, mullahs and any whirling dervishes on break, and Americans will be admonished to refrain from their natural inclinations to persecute musims.

Point in fact, the article states that this Brother showed up, offered pleasant greetings to the infidels and apparently was served up a bad cup of coffee.
The holy Quran addresses this type of situation, I believe, with the penalty being death for any of the minions of the Great Satan within rifle range.

Sounds to me the good old boys played a prank on him, maybe they fed him some pork or something, I work at a concrete batch plant and drivers do play pranks all the time including myself.

Funny thing is early this morning I was showing my buddies two pistols I keep in the truck, another driver brought in his .45 and asked me to help him strip it down completely so he could get it ceracoted.

So here we are all talking guns, got three of them in front of my toolbox, ammo nearby and its just another day.

What I am saying is this, where I live in Alaska we carry guns, and if such a person coming to work at my plant would be a human collander first.

Thats Kalifornia, and yes it saddens me greatly to hear of death and injuries to fellow mudders.
And I will never ever allow any kind of a Moslem in my establishment, I will personally give them a porcine enema.

For the fourth straight year, violent crime declined across the country, according to the FBI’s annual report on crime.
The report focused on crimes like murder, rape, robbery and assault.
According to the report, the U.S. rate fell more than 9 percent compared to 2009

FBI says violent crime rate down again

The violent crime rate in the United States went down in 2009 for the third year in a row and the property crime rate fell for the seventh consecutive year, the FBI reported Monday.

The decline last year amounted to 5.5% for violent crime compared to 2008 and the rate for property crime was down 4.9%.

The FBI collected the crime data from more than 13,000 law enforcement agencies around the country.

According to the numbers, all four categories of violent crime declined compared to 2008 — robbery, murder, aggravated assault and forcible rape.

Violent crime declined 4% in metropolitan counties and 3% elsewhere, the FBI reported.

Nationwide, the murder rate was down 7.2% last year.

The largest decrease in murders — 7.5% — took place in cities of half a million to a million in population. The only increase in murders — 5.3% — occurred in cities with 25,000 to 50,000 people.
