It's in the story he cited so blame The Daily Beast if you're looking for the responsible party.

That aside; this story just gets more hosed up with every turn.

How often does FBI take control of mass shooting investigations? Sounds like an event with a lot of planning, of a cell which went operational after being triggered by a christmas party.

How many workplace shootings involve multiple shooters, though?

Granted, that's different. From my understanding though, the police haven't confirmed three shooters yet, just the two who are dead (one male, one female) and a third person detained who may not be related.

It sure doesn't seem like ISIS since they went in, shot a very specific group of people and left immediately.

I'm mostly worried about Islamophobia reaching a fever pitch in general. A Trump presidency is just one aspect of that.

Think about it --- what if it was a terrorist cell involving an individual who worked for local government? What sort of reaction do you expect from "TERRORISTS INFILTRATE GOVERNMENT" blaring on Fox for the next month?

Why not? They may have had multiple targets in mind. Or, is it too surprising that terrorists are cowards?

Well maybe we could try to reduce the ease of access to high powered weapons? Or we could just throw everyone in jail, since you never know when something will turn them into a rampaging ahooter, since it seems like the motivations of most these mass shootings are "unknown"?

Or I could stop arguing with people who post in FYAD, but that has less chance of happening than federal gun control taking place

is this a good video edit or is there a video of this man being executed? it looks fisher when an officer's gun crosses in front of the light post, we never see him get shot, a round goes off with no visible impact, etc. there is no pretense as to why this happened either. I've seen student video work like this before. give the details.

And without federal laws, they're just gonna buyt their poo poo in Nevada and Arizona



So if we pass federal control, then we can elect trump to build the wall and stop the from being smuggled in from mexico


Or just keep letting people die, since that is the easy and right thing?

Or is the right thing to arm everyone, so you always have a gun to shoot that shifty looking guy?
