I guess people objected to my post, so I'll delete it.

1. Initial Reports Are 6-7 Dead

Shooter is deceased.

2. Why speculate and call for betting on the number of dead people?

The news will announce that. In fact, you announced that six minutes after posting the intitial post. This is not a sporting event. Such stuff is in extremely bad taste, it seems to me. I think you should consider self-deleting, frankly.

3. Bad taste is an understatement.

There always seems to be at least one with this kind of comment. Really reflects well on du, doesn’t it?

[MineralMan]

4. Yes. I'm trying to be polite about it.

It's not easy.

[Probatim]

5. I think the OP is pre-emptively pointing out the bad taste we'll experience

from republican lawmakers when they'll send thoughts and prayers and continue their path of not doing a god damned thing in light of thousands of senseless deaths from gun violence.

The number of dead doesn't matter to gun humpers and never will - even if it hits them personally.

I share the OP's disgust at what will be sensationalized and politicized over the next 12 hours (until it's replaced by the next shooting where more thoughts and prayers will be sent).

As an aside, I own several hunting rifles. They are tools not lifestyle expressions.

6. Perhaps, but it's a very poor job of doing that, I think.

If that was the goal. I'm not sure that is correct, frankly, though.

7. It is the NRA population reduction plan, give everyone a gun, redduce wages and limit educatio, make

mental health care out of reach for all but the wealthy and upper middle class.

Every nation should probably have free mental health services for every citizen, available on a walk in as needed basis.
