"Abbottoir" sounds like "abattoir."
Were "abattoir" not an English word, it would be a clever bilingual pun.
As it is, it's merely a pun. Classed as the lowest form of humor, pun humpers are fond of them.
Not that I'd *ever* think of there being a right to bare puns.

Multiple people were shot and some were killed on Wednesday afternoon at a medical building in Tulsa, Okla., the Tulsa police said. The assailant, who was armed with a rifle, was dead, according to Capt. Richard Meulenberg of the Tulsa Police Department, who said he was not sure if the police had shot him or if he had shot himself.
Captain Meulenberg said that the gunfire had apparently ceased and that the authorities were searching the building floor by floor, room by room. Chief Wendell Franklin of the Tulsa Police said on Twitter that the police had responded to an active shooter incident near East 61st Street and South Yale Avenue in Tulsa and next to Saint Francis Hospital.
Please stay away from the area and yield to all emergency vehicles as we deal with this response, Chief Franklin said. The Tulsa Police Department said on Twitter that it had set up a reunification site for families at Memorial High School.
The shooting came just eight days after 19 students and two teachers were killed in a mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, and 18 days after 10 people were killed by a gunman at a supermarket in Buffalo, N.Y.

EDIT Dont agree with the lock, but oh well. ANY shooting right now is a matter of national interest, especially when it occurs in a busy public place like a hospital ER, or a hospital, period, like here.

Fucking hell, we are not safe ANYWHERE with all these fucking guns everywhere.
Just when will bulletproof vests be handed out like the face masks?
Serious question. This is just as much a public health issue.

A gunman killed at least three people at a medical building in Tulsa, police said Wednesday afternoon. The shooter was also dead.
Tulsa police went to Saint Francis Hospital early Wednesday afternoon after a call about a man armed with a rifle. Capt. Richard Meulenberg said law enforcement is sweeping the building floor by floor for other threats or victims, calling the scene catastrophic.
Meulenberg said investigators are determining whether the gunman was shot by police or he shot himself.
The White House is closely monitoring the situation and is reaching out to local officials to offer support, a White House official said.
This is a developing story that will be updated.

Since we can't politicize a tragedy by talking about a well regulated militia.
