Why don’t people who feel like this guy did just kill themselves first?

It just goes to show what type of a person he was to begin with. Only a real POS would take out a bunch of innocent people with them.

I was getting updates on this last night on my phone....I decided to turn it off and just go to bed...

there was a triple stabbing in Pasadena, CA a little earlier last night...at a Christmas Party....and in the afternoon there was some guy on the roof of an apartment bldg with a shotgun yelling at the cops.

There’s nothing funny about this.

There are numerous posts on this thread that would contradict that assertion.

Sure, if you can manage to ignore the 3 plus murders, the wounding of an 8 year-old, the broken ankle of the woman who jumped from the 2nd story window trying to escape, the molotov cocktails the sick b*st*rd threw into the house, the resulting inferno, the panic and terror, the fact that it happened on Christmas Eve, etc, etc. I must learn to develop a better sense of humor.

Why would humor even enter your mind with a story like this?

because trying to analyze it would be insane....

Now I suppose we all find out who's been naughty and who's been nice....

"The attacker was reportedly throwing molotov cocktails, which may have set off the blaze, witnesses told MYFOXLA."

They don’t know if gunshots or fire killed them. Or an attack on their person. Not odd.

"because trying to analyze it would be insane..."

Those criticized for morbid humor during these tragedies are probably more sympathetic toward the victims than the criticizers. It's a laugh it out (note: not Off) or cry-and-go-mad world for us.

If I were one of the Holier Than Thou posters I'd think twice before tweaking those who deal with grief through humor. But...huh? What's that on the roof?

Here's your present

Even having a temptation to make jokes about such a subject shows immensely poor thinking on your part.
