It seems these cowards targeted an event for county personnel being held in one of the rental halls within this center for people suffering from developmental disabilities. They weren't targeting the patients or personnel that worked for the facility.
Whatever their motives this is just a heinous and senseless act of violence.
How many more people have to die at the hands of these madmen before lawmakers pass stricter gun laws?
According to reports they weren't targeting people with disabilities or the workers there but county personnel at an event being held in one of the facilities rented halls.
Wildcard said: "They may not have directly targeted the people with disabilities but imagine the trauma they're experiencing."
I can only imagine, they must be frightened. I was just sitting here thinking about the families of the victims and what they must be going through, especially now during the holidays.
Here's something I find so ridiculous. This is about the Rockefeller Center tree lighting. Or, it could be about any public gathering. The reporters are assuring everyone that there has been "no credible threat." They say this so that people feel safe. WHAT??? Of course there's no threat. If terrorists are going to strike, they will not announce where or when.
Very sad but not surprised to see this morning our new speaker of the house being interviewed by Gail on the CBS morning show. Once again he was passing the buck to mental illness and showing once again that this country is never going to do something about the guns. He twisted around every question that she and Charlie Rose threw at him. This is never going to end.
Those of us who want this gun madness to end ask for too little when we discuss background checks and gun show loopholes. Gun ownership isn't some inalienable right granted by God. Remember, the Constitution also included the "right" to own a human being. It's a living document that changes as the needs of a nation change. Think big for change. Don't let the NRA and the extreme right dictate your ability to imagine a better world.
Not all shooters are mentally ill. Some people just happen to be evil. Some have guns, some have an office to hide behind when they do their evil deeds.
