WTF???

[TTmonkey]

Just another day in the States.

[TankRizzo]

I think the depressing thing about the US is nobody is shocked any more.

Sayeed Farouk heard over the scanners. This is going to be a long interesting thread.

Three shooters is not the normal mo for wackjob work place violence types.

[Dan_1981]

Reporting three shooters, body armour, full get up.

Not atypical crazy guy America type job but not a typical target I wouldn't have thought for Islamic Terrorists.

USA population is 5x here
I feel very comfortable when visiting
5x population = 5x headlines

[dandarez]

Currently saying up to 20 victims in this mass shooting, as a Social Services clinic ffs!

And Obama is worried about saving the planet.

[longshot]

Is it that time of the month already?

To be fair he would be the first to implement strict gun controls if he could, sadly the system he is working with will never let it happen.

[hornetrider]

I find it incredible that there's yet another one.

[rscott]

Most depressing was the mention on reddit of a journalist saying 'this isn't your typical mass shooting' .

Any country where that phrase can be used has really major problems.

5x the population - but 71x the firearm related homicide rate (3.55 vs 0.05 per 100,000).

Indeed. The 5x doesn't really work since we don't have 1/5th of such headlines.

Not really a news item to be honest, the USA could have hundreds of these sickening episodes but they still wouldn't change their attitudes, or laws.

Unconfirmed as of yet could be bks obviously but U.S. Forums reporting the attacked building is a Jewish pharma company.

[TheEnd]

Everywhere else is saying it's the "Inland Regional Centre" and is some sort of autism charity or institute.

We'll disagree on that one.
