And there was just a mall shooting a couple days ago too? Meh, whatever...I think guns are a problem in this country, but apparently more people than not believe people have a right to guns...we just have to get used to these kinds of things happening...

This guy would've used a knife like the dude China just did. Caused a hell of a lot more damage than this incident.

Someone's going to pull something like this on Christmas day. What a world.
And apparently it's two shooters now, with one dead.

A terrible tragedy. Very little is confirmed. Been following this on another board and on the news. The news...I prob shouldn't call them that.
I am a little ticked off at what the news and networks do in these tragedies. They are reporting absolute garbage under the tag of "unconfirmed reports". Scaring the crap out of good hearted and well meaning people.
Here is a thought heralding back to the days of true journalism and reporting. How about...if it is unconfirmed...just **** and wait till a press release is made. Trumping things up and frightening people is despicable...but it scores "viewers"....
Not to overshadow the terrible tragedy of anyone being injured or worse...adult or child...how about the networks release statements such as "an incident has occurred at such and such"...as soon as we can verify information, we will announce it"
That is professional responsibility...talking trash and trumping things up about a bad thing is not responsibility in my opinion...

you mean you trying to fix the problem?? lol, how??? tell us what would you do to make sure it wont happen again.
If your child was one of the innocent victims would you give then such an answer?
Enouhg already with the gun desire. Yes, guns do kill, faster then the cigarret.
