Searching for the gunman(men).

At the risk of fatal levels of cognitive dissonance, one would think people would rethink the notion of "gun-free zones", as nearly all random shootings take place in such environments.

I just hope they are white so we don't have to deal with protests.

I dont understand how that can happen.

It is a gun free zone.

Guns are not allowed there.
So...how is there a shooting?


Baffles me. If it is just whitey who dies then I suspect we will see more outrage over that gorilla getting killed than the crackers whodied.

I still think the "gun-free zone" soft target is simply a correlation....these targets tend to be very public places, and often places thought of as safe zones. Those targets are chosen for that reason, not because it has anything to do with being gun-free. Any place with children or young people in confined spaces creates maximum shock value - has nothing to do with being a gun-free zone.

Perhaps, but one or two of them catching some hollow-points center mass would cause the frequency to decline, IMO.

I agree. I HIGHLY doubt this toolbag and many others choose to do this in a place because it is a gun free zone. Likely didn't even know it was such.

Crazy, socially inept, mentally unreasonable thought process and delusional that the place where they are at. They have no understanding of their surrounding or where they are at ..... It's all about the action of the task and the justification

So, you are saying he is your neighbor?
