  1. What, are you serious? So far, no particular facts seem evident at all, amount of shots fired, anything.

    In case your wondering , there is a precedent, the port arthur massacre.

    I had some conspiracy loon try and tell me, it was a cia black op, because such a high percentage of kills were head shots.
    Rubbish, even if they were, it would not be unremarkable, its the state of mind involved that gets accuracy. Whether thats to do with video games, professional training, or sheer proximity, it doesnt actually mean jack shit.

  2. As the bits and pieces of this come in I'm starting to think it's terrorism, maybe just rougue. This guy was way too calm and effecient. He definately planned this out, and wasn't just a crazed jilted lover. Chinese Islamist perhaps. Any schools who've had their security responses tested over the last month should be on high alert. Or maybe it's a shopping mall today?
    Hope I'm wrong.

    Hey Rennick...He is your fucking baby! own him and dig into the roots of the social problems that made him, and other kids, do that rather than blaming his actions on what you did to his "Ancestors".

  6. Luby's:
    Dr Suzanne Gratia was in that cafe with her parents that were shot dead. That was the day that Suzanne was unarmed. She searched her purse for the gun that she ILLEGALLY carried, but realized that she had left it in the car.

    Suzanne did not blame the death of her parents on too many guns. She blamed the death on the legislators that denied her the right to defend herself.

    Houston:
    An extremely violent element has invaded Houston. 250,000 of them came from New Orleans. They need to be taught some respect via a .45, but most people don't have $100k for an attorney to defend themselves in a simple case of self-defense. It's much easier to allow yourself to be a victim than to defend yourself, even if it means your life.

  7. That certainly is the standard police procedure the last decade or two of cops doing nothing until the shooter kills himself. Lately, it's typical to have kids on cell phones in the building begging for help while the cops are outside taking a coffee break.

    Not only all that, but cops these days are a bunch of pushies. I have a relative that's a cop. Everyone, even when he's off duty, has to follow the rules to an extreme, but he can go out and break the law. His cop buddies cover for him.

  8. Snipets of what the world thinks:

    World reacts to U.S. shooting

    Australian Prime Minister John Howard said the shooting underscored the problems of a U.S. "gun culture."

    Howard staked his political leadership on pushing through tough laws on gun ownership in Australia after a lone gunman went on one of the world's deadliest killing sprees 11 years ago in his country.

    "We took action to limit the availability of guns and we showed a national resolve that the gun culture that is such a negative in the United States would never become a negative in our country," he said.

    The Times of London ran an editorial delving into the American psyche and the weak gun laws across the country.

    "Why, we ask, do Americans continue to tolerate gun laws and a culture that seems to condemn thousands of innocents to death every year, when presumably, tougher restrictions, such as those in force in European countries, could at least reduce the number?"

    Gun crime is extremely rare in Britain, and handguns are completely illegal. The ban is so strictly enforced that Britain's Olympic pistol shooting team is barred from practicing in its own country.

    Britain's 46 homicides involving firearms was the lowest total since the late 1980s. New York City, with 8 million people compared to 53 million in England and Wales, recorded at least 579 homicides last year.

  9. "Hmmmmmmmmmmmm...Who are we going to hate and generalize on today?!!! Which culture are we going to demean PEOPLE!"

    Back in the day, we went to work at the shop and you worked with a bunch of guys. Now management needs to know "who" this bunch of guys are. "Ahmmm yes, we have two African -Americans, 1 native American, 1 Asian 3 Latino's, 5 Caucasians"

    Point being, our govt has decided to segregate our society into groups, keep this segregation in the news, politicians pander to the now segregated groups. How can we remain as one if the govt keeps dividing us into groups? I think it made matters worse.

  10. Anyone here give a shit about what the world thinks? "The world" has enough problems of their own to solve before they go delving into the problems of the US.
