They are now reporting that the shooter had an HCP and it sounds like he left the meeting angry, went out to his car, got his gun and came back and shot his two bosses who were in the meeting. So I am sure the anti's will just love this story.

This is one of my customers at work. We were all horrified by the news.

Very sad events. It know this is always said but I cannot believe that he actually shot them. He is one of the nicest and quietest person that you could find.

Any word what the issues with the meeting were about?

Sad to hear. Just proves that you can't stop crazy. You never know when someone is gonna snap.

Exactly why the Antis say disarmament is the only solution.

Shooter reportedly was fired in the meeting with the 2 supervisors per Knoxville noon news.  The female supervisor who was killed was retired, but had come back to help train some other employees in HR related issues I assume but do not know for sure.

When I was a LEO those are exactly the ones I watched hard. Bottling it up leads to an explosion.

Close to home, know several workers, but none of the victims.  I read early this morning the shooter had a HCP, and I suspected he went to his car.   I hate it for the victims!

Wow. Why not just go get another job?

Our country is becoming a bad place. I worry about my childrens' future.

With a 10 y/o son this is my daily thought.
