The preliminary reports are that this is someone who once worked in the building. Could be a disgruntled layoff.

I’m not close enough to have any different info that what will be on the news. I’m actually surprised I’ve been able to hear all the sirens and helicopters.

Yep, must be yet another perp named, "Ole Olson" or "Lars Larson" or "John Smith."

Light blue polo and jeans?

They don’t know skin or hair color, or height?

It’s a former employee who hasn’t worked for the company in 2 years...disgruntled former worker who has been unemployed for the last year.

Commies will use this as an excuse for gun control. Though I’m sure that’s already been mentioned on here.

According to Channel 9, up to 17 shot.

I do find it odd they “know” this is a disgruntled employee already, but don’t seem to have a name to share.

Could be a disgruntled layoff.

Obviously he doesn't like being part of Obama's 10% unemployment. He should be mad at the stimulus plan and Obama.

People who are living on some kind of edge are starting to come unglued...

Be aware of your surroundings folks...Any mass gatherings, Malls, sporting events...

And if anything was going to be the catalyst to enrage someone(s) in the near future...

Veterans Day parades and rememberence ceremonies...

I’m not saying not to go...Just enjoy yourselves but keep the head on a swivvle...

Interesting times we are living in...

They know it because one of the employees was just interviewed by the Orlando Sentinel and said he came in saying “I am gonna get all of you”.

” I do find it odd they “know” this is a disgruntled employee already, but don’t seem to have a name to share. “
