[Diuretic]

I heard a radio report of a man in the town who said this bloke was just calmly driving down the street shooting at people. What a frigging nightmare that is for the cops and of course for the citizenry.

Two words: Full Moon.

lost job, too.

 

[Newby]

I guess it's a good thing that everyone who's lost their job isn't using that as an excuse to do mass murder isn't it?

 

[DavidS]

And I'm sure he got this gun completely legally, right?

As we all know, you don't become a mass murderer just because you lost your job. Unless, of course, you worked for Starbucks.

Not sure where that came from. But if someone is already unstable, losing his job can't be helpful as we saw here and in the past.

Are you seriously trying to imply that it's his employer's fault?

Once again the police were outgunned by a psycho with an assault rifle.

Once again the police were outgunned by a psycho with an assault rifle.

and if assault rifles were illegal, the police would... have been outgunned by a psycho with an assault rifle.

 

[Chris]

Wrong.

It was really sad seeing the police chief talk about how outgunned his men were.

This is why I hate people like you, Elvis.
