Reports are tough to verify this early on. One report said right before shooting, a jogger asked if they were Rs or Ds.
Related? I dunno..
It's all ok- Obama just declared the shooting "workplace violence"...UpstateSCHokie wrote:Story is developing.

I'll wait and see if the shooter turns out to be mentally ill, but the left has been very violent since the election...UpstateSCHokie wrote:Remember when Giffords was shot & the left sprinted to blame it on "violent rhetoric" from the right, and how Sarah Palin incited the violence by putting targets over congressional districts on a map?

How is that low? They've been pushing this rhetoric since November. I'll leave it at that, until we find out exactly what we're dealing with.UpstateSCHokie wrote:Remember when Giffords was shot & the left sprinted to blame it on "violent rhetoric" from the right, and how Sarah Palin incited the violence by putting targets over congressional districts on a map?

not a valid blanket statement at all, but he is dead per reports so now sure how anyone will ever knowHooFighter wrote:Anyone who does something like this is mentally ill.WestEndHokie39 wrote:mentally ill
Let me clarify. Saying that Giffords was shot because of targets drawn on a map was low.HokieHam wrote:How is that low? They've been pushing this rhetoric since November.

They can go take a look at his social media postings or see if he kept a journal to see if this was planned and if he was targeting anyone in particular. If it was premeditated and targeted a Republicans, that may not be mental illness. If it was just some guy shooting random people, then yeah I'll buy the mentally ill argument.cwtcr hokie wrote:not a valid blanket statement at all, but he is dead per reports so now sure how anyone will ever knowHooFighter wrote:Anyone who does something like this is mentally ill.WestEndHokie39 wrote:mentally ill
All of the democrats are mentally ill. We have members here who thought(still do?) Trump paid Russian hookers to urinate on a hotel mattress that Obama once slept on.WestEndHokie39 wrote:I'll wait and see if the shooter turns out to be mentally ill, but the left has been very violent since the election...UpstateSCHokie wrote:Remember when Giffords was shot & the left sprinted to blame it on "violent rhetoric" from the right, and how Sarah Palin incited the violence by putting targets over congressional districts on a map?

Anyone who espouses some of the nonsense I've seen the last 6 months is mentally ill...HooFighter wrote:Anyone who does something like this is mentally ill.WestEndHokie39 wrote:mentally ill
Just like the guy in Charleston, but the left leaning posters on this board (nolan, Visor, ip, and probably you) all used it as a lever to want to ban the Confederate flag.HooFighter wrote:Anyone who does something like this is mentally ill.WestEndHokie39 wrote:mentally ill

Yeah. He fired sixty plus rounds and supposedly multiple reloads. Thank God he wasn't well trained. It could have been a blood bath.USN_Hokie wrote:The more I read on this, this shooter didn't have much training. He could have shot a LOT of people if he didn't spray bullets first and had instead targeted the two cops first.
