I thought they said the Perp was dead. Which is it?

[Mears]

I heard that he was killed. Good riddance!

[TexasM1A]

I wonder if it was another unhinged liberal that should never have had access to a firearm, probably doped up on anti-pshycs.

Deflection away from Bill Barr’s investigation of the investigators. Betcha. Too convenient. Sorry if I am crass, cold and an asshat!

> If only people were allowed to be armed. <

That is the only workable solution.

[tomkat]

Wouldn’t surprise me in the least.

Shooters dead. Unless I guess even dead can be in custody? I never heard it explained the way you did.

Betting this guy was a known “ticking timebomb”, who was either fired, or about to be let-go.

[LibertyWoman]

The article I read said the shooter was dead. And the article concluded: The shooter’s identity was not immediately released.

[Beautiful_Gracious_Skies]

Both. He’s dead in custody.

[napscoordinator]

The police station is in the building or next door.

[BenLurkin]

Have to admit, that was my first thought as well.

Weekend at Bernie’s 3, in Custody.

PLEASE take a moment and lift up in prayer the families that are getting or have gotten the horrible news that their loved one has died or is hurt.....My heart goes out to them

[aquila48]

Did “ban the box” play a role in this?

[Drew68]

Come on man.

That's how I'm feeling. This shit is just getting so tiring. Some asshole with a gun ruins so many lives and for what?

And, no, I don't have any easy answers. There aren't any.

[Drew68]

Deflection away from Bill Barr’s investigation of the investigators.

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.

[Drew68]

Betting this guy was a known “ticking timebomb”, who was either fired, or about to be let-go.

Reported elsewhere the shooter was a former long-time employee who was recently let go.
