A gunman opened fire on a union meeting at a train yard close to San Jose’s airport Wednesday morning — leaving at least eight people dead and “multiple people” injured, according to officials and reports.

The suspect, believed to be a 50-year-old male, attacked the VTA Light Rail Facility on West Younger Avenue around 6:30 a.m. local time during a union gathering and then killed himself, according to the Santa Clara Sheriff’s Office and the Los Angeles Times, which cited law enforcement sources.

The gunman also torched his own home before the meeting.

Wow. I wonder if they're going to find bodies under the rubble.

I'm sure we will once again find the underlying reason is MENTAL ILLNESS. I'm sure in 3-2-1 The Dems will predictably demand that we allow employees to carry so the can protect themselves and the groups they are associating with.

I refuse to be held accountable for the crimes of others based upon my political leanings. That’s what gun control is really all about.

They found other guns, and “ hundreds of rounds” of ammunition at his home. Dibs on the ammo.

Clearly it’s time to make people turn in their empty brass before they can buy more ammo. A common sense first step.

Someone didn’t pay Guido and Vinny back their loan? I thought they just broke legs for that.

Yup. If he had multiple calibers, then maybe a .22. Hundreds of rounds would be a bare minimum.
