I saw that on the news earlier. That's horrible. Said he blocked his car so people couldn't get out of the building.

Last I heard the death toll was up to 15.

Just what is it that people are trying to prove by doing this sort of thing??? Is it going to change anything for the better??? OMG!!!

I caught a blurb of something on the news about all the mass killings like this that happen in April..... Va Tech, Columbine, Oklahoma City........ hmmm, didn't catch what they correlated it with, tho.

"'People in depressed affect, when they are at the bottom of their mood, they can't function well enough to do anything, even plan a suicide,' said Randy Nelson, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Ohio State University.

At first, I thought this was a disgruntled native US citizen but it seems that the shooter is an immigrant himself, although in the country for 28 years and a citizen. With these economic times and so much job loss, I can see where someone might misdirect their anger and despair at immigrants....I dunno.

How difficult it must have been to sort things out when most of the people who were brought out of the building as this unfolded did not speak English.

Crazy. I just don't understand what makes people do this sort of thing....
