Shooter Wings 8 at chicken plant?
This of course means that the shooter probably shouted 'Allahu Ahkbar' prior to firing, if we take the hint from the Ft. Hood shooting.
It’s fowl play.
Is there a count on Republicans and Democrats? Could this affect the election outcome?
He went off half cocked.
Interesting title.
Were the shooters and victims, chickens?
If so, we need laws against chickens with guns.
Why did the chicken cross the road?
To escape the gunfire at the processing plant, apparently.
4 hospitalized

>>Witness account: Jesus Davila said he was at a bus stop on Olive Avenue when someone from a nearby meat factory ran up and said a gunman was shooting people inside.
Then Davila heard a loud gunshot.
“I thought I had been shot,” Davila said.
Then he saw the apparent gunman.
Davila said the meat factory worker told him that the gunman had just got out of jail.
“He said the guy was in nine years and he was crazy,” Davila said.
Per news conference the shooter is a black male parolee/employee with a long rap sheet. He is still alive. All of the victims were hispanic co-workers.
He come to snuff the Rooster...
thanks, update from above link
>>10:15 a.m.: Police Chief Jerry Dyer at a news conference said the gunman shot four coworkers, killing one, then walked outside the business and shot himself.
The gunman, identified as Lawrence Jones, 42, of Fresno and two of the people he shot were taken to Community Regional Medical Center and reported in critical condition.
A third person was shot in the lower back area. Her condition was not immediately known.
Wonder if all the co-workers are hispanic?
I’m sorry for the victims but “rampage at a chicken plant” is an hillarious headline.
report on a Fresno TV station’s site said he had worked there past 14 months
