“Outside” the federal courthouse. See, “NO FIREARMS ALLOWED BEYOND THIS POINT!” signs must work.

Has there ever been an inactive shooting or shooter?

Wonder how they'd respond to that.

So, it’s a white guy in cammo. Awaiting CNN to declare him a military vet, long wolf, Christian, conservative and Trump supporter. Unfortunately, they might finally be right this time on some points.

From the article linked above:

Photo shows a balaclava-wearing guy dressed like a SWAT guy, including chest plates. Police detonated a suspicious package in his car. The reporter said “it shook nearby trees”, but no confirmation it was a bomb. However, cops are searching the area anyway.

The reporter said “it shook nearby trees”....

Given reporters tendency to sensationalize everything, I take "nearby trees" to mean those directly overhanging the car.

Hopefully, this active shooter was deactivated before he hurt anyone.

Best way to handle this type of attack. Although likely not a deterrent to others, it sure as hell is to this arsehole.

re. Wonder how they'd respond to that.

It might take a while... would most likely require more training. ;-)

CBS headline: Active Shooter Dead After Shots Fired At Federal Building

He’s dead, but actively shooting. Must be a zombie.

Heavy.com (https://heavy.com/news/2019/06/brian-clyde/) says that Clyde’s cover photo on Facebook shows Confederate uniforms. Photo is shown. Unless they are supposed to be uniforms from the first six months or so of the war, they look union blue to me. That alone doesn’t confirm union army, but...you re-enactors please pitch in.
