Okay so this guy gets fired from his office building 2 years ago in downtown Orlando and is currently on a shooting spree. Several people are injured but they haven't released any info on any deaths.

edit: 1 confirmed death, gunman is caught

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_orlando_office_shooting

I wouldn't be blogging this right now if it weren't for the fact that the police have blocked the road I live on, because the shooter lives in my area. I'm not really afraid for my life, but seriously what the fuck is wrong with all these people shooting up other humans that they don't even know.

Just yesterday I was reading about the Fort Hood shooting.. Its crazy how things happen like this. My prayers go out to the people and families affected by these terrible shootings

This is why you need gun control laws.

There is no way that the united states is going to have stronger gun control laws any time soon.

Even with gun laws, he'd still get a gun, and the same crazy fucker would still shoot up a place.

If you think gun control laws would prevent people from using guns in an unlawful manner, you're pretty naive. If the people going on shooting sprees were the type that would obey that law, they most likely wouldn't be going on shooting sprees to begin with.
Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.

My family owns an Italian restaurant a few blocks down from the shooting. My little brother was a block away from it, driving to UCF, when traffic got stopped ._.

People are pissed off about the economy and some people can't take the stress of years out of work. I feel bad for everyone involved. America is in a sad state right now and it's mostly our own damn fault. Years of just not caring what happens politically because we've been doing so well economically is now showing the price we pay for laxity.

I mean, think on the last 16 years of politics. We've gotten so spoiled that we care about Bill Clinton getting a BJ from fat chicks and debate how often George Bush played golf. Sorry, don't mean to derail the thread, but this is without doubt, economically motivated. The economy has been depressed for a long while now and will continue to be depressed. Many Americans are having trouble coping.

If you don`t think it prevents people from using guns in an unlawful manner YOU are naive... Its a reason this rarely/if ever happens in countries with strict gun control. A hint for you : ITS HARDER TO GET A HOLD OF A GUN THERE.

If you fail too see this I am at a loss of words.

Word. There is just no arguments against this since it's proven by facts and research.
