The shooter also is dead, Cervera said.

The shooter was a public utilities worker, he said.

“I would have offered him my ham sandwich, but I didn’t need another note in my personnel file.”

Do you actually mean that this Co-op employee did not turn you in to HR for eating ham during his work hours at the same time he was having lunch?

I have to wonder if this perp was terminated and a screwup was covered up, because his credentials were not revoked, thus, allowing him re-entry.

Quote from heavy.com “However, the Wall Street Journal and other outlets continued to report that DeWayne Craddock had been terminated, perhaps recently.”

I concur with your disappointment.

12 people were killed. 12 people who had lives in a community, children, spouses, parents, hopes, and dreams. We know nothing about them other than they were in the wrong place at the wrong time when a madman brutally murdered them for some reason we will never understand.

Pity and sadness, as you have shown, is appropriate for such a loss regardless of politics. It is not inappropriate to point out the hypocrisy of the media who grab onto that which supports their agenda and ignores that which does not, but NONE of us should forget the horrible loss suffered by many in our disgust over politics.

Saw this from this morning saying the perp had a surpressed .45 pistol:

“He came armed with a .45-caliber handgun with a sound suppressor on it and shot one victim in a vehicle outside before entering the building. The rest were shot inside.”

Was it modified other than the “silencer”? How many mags did he have? Was he that proficient or was he that close to the folks he shot?

Gee, imagine that.

Especially any “religious conversion”

Has there been photos of his victims? Was DeWayne “diverse” in his targets?

Or did he single out certain ethnicity(ies)?

Oh, let it go. Eleven people murdered in a mass shooting by a disgruntled former employee will always be headline news. There's no conspiracy.

There actually is.

But I am too tired to detail it right now.

I hate to break this to people, but the deep state does not need to orchestrate those events that are inevitable through random chance alone.

Incorrect. More to follow.

This really goes to show how poorly trained people are for an active shooter scenario. Most training tells you to go gather in a conference room and try to block the unlockable door or put your head under your desk and wait to be shot.

This Virginia Beach police chief/acting spokesperson, reminds me of Broward County sheriff Israel.

Yes, indeed, but it’s not the same. That would be closer to “SERIAL” killer.

Besides, blacks usually just target someone they know who did them wrong, or others who simply get caught in the crossfire, not meaning to shoot them. Usually they KNOW their intended victims. It’s very personal.

That last is not generally in the definition for either serial or mass murder, either.

Neither he, nor any mayor of that slum called Chicago, stopped the daily rape and murder on nearly every street corner. Every weekend the death rate by all those illegal guns, stolen by the gang members, piles up, HOWEVER, YOU WILL NEVER SEE OR HEAR ONE WORD from the MSM regarding the massive murders in the Dimocrat led cities of the Republic. NY, Chicago, Philly, Atlanta, Houston, LA, SF, you name the large city, with dimocrat mayors, have hundreds of murders by guns that are illegal. Yup, take up our guns so that we cannot defend ourselves. PEOPLE, the day we get a commie prez and both houses of congress are commie, you can kiss the 2d Amendment and most of the 1st gone!! Those are the very first things they will move on to get rid of. You can bank on that.
