In reply to the discussion: Oh dear - another theater shooting - this time in Tennessee [View all]Ghost in the Machine
(14,912 posts)55. I live 6 miles from a Nuclear Plant... I ain't scared of NOTHING!! :-)
Where in Tennessee did this happen? I have been on the go most of the day & night and haven't heard about it until now. Unless I missed it, or just because I haven't read all of the replies yet, I haven't seen a link yet.
Shootings have been on the rise here recently. Just a few days ago, in the town next to ours, there was a triple shooting that left 2 dead and one wounded. Even odder, one of the dead, who had been shot the most, had just threatened to kill my son a couple of weeks ago. Then he robbed someone else for over $1200.00! He was a well known thief and a violent meth-head. HUGE, too! I'm 6'3" and 215 lbs and he made me look small.
Live by the gun, die by the gun... I guess he pissed the wrong person off this time...

If it's AP, the weapon will be a .50 Browning aircraft machinegun. Or AR 15.
