On a more serious note - WTF? Hope they get the guy before he does more killing.

Orlando.

Highrise.

Domestic dispute or drugs.

Or maybe Mickey caught Minney with Goofy in the elevator.

FAUX News already alleged that the unemployment numbers were a factor.

Anything to attack a president cleaning up the cheerleader-in-chiefs mess.

You're ridiculous sometimes Ray. That post is a real gem.

Florida allows Conceal Carry.

I wonder what the policy of this company is toward people who have CCW permits.

Many do not allow weapons on their property.

This was perpetrated by a short seller who was pissed that the Dow hit 10,000.

Yep...someone will have to run down to the car go get the gun out of the glove box and run back up all 19 stairs....

When you need a gun, having it in hand is priceless. A gun locked up useless.

These numbers are nothing compared to number of unemployed. Let's talk about Obama's economic policy.

Florida cops are looking for a silver 2002 Nissan SUV with tags D11-9UX. Do not approach, call 911. Driver is the shooter.

Update: Vehicle found, suspect in custody.

The suspect would be at large if he watched his weight. National Healthcare would have prevented his obesity.

This whole thing could have been averted if we'd been allowed to abort him before he was born....

I think it was "God Bless the NRA".

Yep, I understand why the no carry policy on a military installation; but the "keep it in the car" policy didn't do these folks any good.

People are frustrated. Unemployment realistically speaking is more like 17.5%.
