When I first saw this I assumed it was MBPXL which is usually abbreviated to Exel, which is a beef packing plant.

Turns out it is something else entirely.

I’d have shot the sumbitch just for looking at me like that, but I bet the plant is a “gun free zone.”

Guy has a grand theft auto conviction in his LONG rap sheet.

We need to make it illegal for felons to possess guns!

Prayers for all involved.

Well he will not be doing any more killing but he will probably keep voting for many years.

Well cedric, it seems all those moronic tattoos were a waste, just like your worthless life. Too bad the wimps let you off for all your previous violent offenses.

Say hello to Mary you worthless POS ...

Nah, he doesn’t fit the media narrative for mass shootings. This’ll be buried.

Multiple eyewitnesses and employees at Excel Industries identify the shooter as Cedric Ford, 38, an employee at the company in Hesston. Ford lived in Newton.

According to Florida court documents, he was charged with multiple crimes in his history, including burglary, grand theft, fleeing and eluding and other charges dating back to 1996. Ford was also booked in Sedgwick County in 2008. Eyewitness News has not confirmed the charges in the Sedgwick County arrest.

His Facebook page says he was a painter at Excel.

Companies need to hire more ex-felons who have had their long prison records expunged from employment applications. They have served their time and need a “second chance” from a mean and racist society /sarc.

The gunman in the Kansas workplace shooting has been identified by multiple co-workers as Cedric Ford, according to Wichita TV station KWCH.

Mr. Ford’s name had been said in an interview with a victim’s relative earlier in the day on KAKE, but the station refused to re-air it.

Mr. Ford’s Facebook page identified him as a painter at Excel Industries.

Multiple eyewitnesses on KAKE had said the gunman was a black man wielding an assault rifle. Mr. Ford is black and multiple pictures on his Facebook page showed him with rifles and handguns.

“Lol I’m ok really just doing my thing as things,” Mr. Ford wrote in a Facebook comment under photos and videos of him shooting rifles. “Come on it’s sexy a little bit.”

His partner at the plant told KWCH that Mr. Ford didn’t have violent or erratic tendencies and that he had talked to Mr. Ford earlier in the day and all seemed fine.

But Mr. Ford had a criminal record. He was arrested in 2010 on domestic violence and drug-related charges. He also had a criminal record in his native Florida, KWCH reported.

His Facebook page also included photos of two children — a son and a daughter, both apparently pre-adolescents.

He lived in a trailer park in nearby Newton.

If it was a jihadi, the government will do EVERYTHING in their power to cover it up. Or maybe if the government says nothing, then maybe we can assume it WAS a jihadi.

The shooter is black, so we should be spared a gun control lecture from 0bama. So it will as if this did not happen.
