According to police now, the witness descriptions of assault weapons, pistols, “cache” of weapons, is not accurate, only found a “shotgun”.

Now “three” victims in critical condition. Early news reports said five (5) victims walked in and were doing well.

Let's hear a rousing cheer for the corporate and government geniuses who first came up with the idea of gun free zones. After all it's perfectly logical to assume that a person intending to commit murder will be stopped by a sign forbidding guns in an area.

Hundreds of police are on the scene

No doubt, I saw 3 LEO's two FD engine companies, a rescue truck and paramedics respond to a fender bender the other day....It's incredible how much man power and staffing government spends out tax dollars on. Most of them were standing around chatting....

What the hell. What ever happened to telling the supervisor to go f themselves, slamming the door and storming out.

Anger and rage driven by stress. Most of those in the work a day world are under big pressure just to pay their bills and rent etc...Throw in a scenario of a jackass supervisors or possibly someone just screwing with people at the job scene, someone have mental issues, or an on going personality conflict between people and things can get ugly fast, and people wind up dead...

In fact events have shown some employees who've been terminated will come back 8 years later, and open up, after thinking about it for years....scary stuff.

Bottom line, many people are tightly wound nowadays....Ya got to be careful.

How can all of you freepers continue to fall for this crap? a few days after the governor signs a bill to allow everyone to carry? And this happens on the site of a company that was against it?

this is 100% unadulterated BS. some guy dresses up like Rambo? unbelievable.

Drudge is so sick and tired of these phony false flags that he doesn't even have this fraudulent story on his site.

You would be mistaken. It was a FedEx Ground facility, not Express.

Fall for what crap?

Like Lazamataz says:

I agree! Nothing is beyond this administration’s actions.

My guess is two out of three following that the shooter is:

Politics -Liberal democrat, possibly associated with some fringe environmental (ELF) and/or Socialist Move-on/Occupy movement. Wealthy liberal parents.

Mental state-Psychotropic prescription drugs for ADD, depression or psychotic diagnosis.

Spiritual-Intense interests with occult, video games, grunge. Not a church going type. Maybe even occult follower

FedEx prohibits employees from carrying firearms. Yet now twice in three years people have shot up the place. Hmm you think the FedEx executives are catching on? Of course not. The profund stupidity and willful lack of logic is frightening. People who are bent on committing murder aren’t going to be disuaded by a policy prohibiting firearms. The idiots just don’t get it.
