No doubt they will blame it all on the NEW pro-gun law just passed or make an example that this was the most heavily armed municipality in the state and just think what must be headed in the direction of extreme violence once the new onslaught of those evil firearms and those possessed by the evil spirits that dwell inside all guns to come in the near future.... ~barf~ ~hurl~
The “police” supposedly said he had just a “shotgun”?
Probably pretty close. I haven’t read any updates.
Lib posters had already been going there with the “most heavily armed” town and this STILL happened.
Illogical anti Second Amendment hypocrites.
That just doesn’t sound dramatic enough.
Crazieman! Dude, I need to borrow some money. S'OK?
Yes, Kennesaw has that gun law:

It won't be long before the editing war begins on that Wiki page. The Lefty Statists will win the day by locking it down after they scrub the mention of the Fedex "no gun" zone, no doubt

Whoops.
I hear they're trying to hire unicorns to replace their Fedex delivery trucks, 'cause the umicorns are faster, n stuff.
Bad guy musta missed the sign...
Law Enforcement Senior Skip Day...
“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!”
It is probably a safe bet that the CEO and other top officers at Fed Ex have armed guards to protect them at work, to and from work and at home. If they have school age kids, they probably go to a very expensive private school with armed private guards and probably armed local LEO’s.
“Rambo” and ‘dressed for war’ definitely provokes a Visual.
This dummy had already gone there earlier.
Disgusting, thanks for finding that though. ;)
Da shadow do!
I think that I’m old enough to get that. lol
Shooter has been identified as one Geddy Kramer, 19.

Kramer is reportedly a 2013 graduate of North Cobb High School.
The suspect also allegedly built a number of Molotov cocktails but didn’t light them up:
“Authorities were sweeping the FedEx facility after an unknown number of Molotov cocktails were found there, apparently left by the gunman.”
And that is about all we know at this point
Some additional details:
http://www.11alive.com/story/news/local/kennesaw/2014/04/29/kennesaw-fedex-shooting/8448813/
Just before 6 a.m., police said Geddy Kramer of Acworth drove his maroon Honda up to a security gate, stormed out and shot the security officer point blank. Authorities say Kramer then walked into the building and proceeded to shoot five more people. About [b]three hours later[/b], Kramer was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. ....
As bad as it was, police said it could have been worse. They said that the type of ammunition Kramer chose may be the reason there were no fatalities. [b]He chose bird shot[/b] instead of buckshot or shotgun slugs. ....
A Cobb County police spokesperson said they have an idea as to the gunman’s motive. They are interviewing [b]other people who may have been involved[/b] ....
With hundreds of LE on scene, it took them THREE HOURS to find his body? Hmmm.....
Why would he use birdshot when his intention is to kill a bunch of people?
And now they say others might have been involved? Of course others are involved. They usually are. Like his shrink, for example.

Thank you for all the links. What is it about the Molotov cocktails recently? It’s curious that a 19 year-old guy (at least to me) would be setting up Molotovs.
