“I ask all Floridians to pray for the families impacted by this senseless act of violence,” he added.

And the gun laws … ??

Early reports (very preliminary) are indicating that this came from a disgruntled employee.

Yep, praying is going to do a lot of good.

Sounds like we now need a Florida travel ban. Or a border wall with Florida…

Thoughts and prayers are sufficient, unless the shooter has above the acceptable level of melatonin, in which case we need to drug test SNAP recipients.

Just another example of a patriot exercising his Second Amendment rights. He must have decided to stand his ground and shoot himself to finish the job.

Oh we’re fixing that with a pending bill to expand “Stand Your Ground”
The onus is on the prosecutor now to prove that it wasn’t “Stand Your Ground” before prosecuting .
West-World with real humans instead of androids
I would say Fucking insane , but that’s what the NRA is

So, if your wife has her skull bashed in … if your son is shot in the back … if your mother is strangled … their killers will now have a better chance of getting off.

All they will have to do is claim self-defense.

Totally off topic, but wanted to ask if anyone else is having trouble bringing up the comments section on most of the articles? I am not seeing anything except the word balloon most of the time and that link is not working

My first reaction was “It’s so cute that you think that’s going to help.”

“The sheriff says the shooting is not believed to have any link to terrorism.”

Oh good, that means the GOP can ignore this in favor of rabble rosing over the London attack.

One man with gun kills five. Three terrorists with truck and knives kill seven.

The man with the gun will be news for a day, but the news will be freaking out about the terrorists for weeks.

Economic anxiety plus guns.

I finally had to get ‘NoScript’ after getting used to it, I really like it.

That’s why the NRA opposes efforts to make guns that are more difficult to discharge unintentionally and more difficult for young children to fire.

Had there been enough toddlers around playing with loaded, unsecured guns, one of them might have accidentally killed the shooter and saved some lives.

Yes. Got bad over the weekend and is continuing. Restarting the computer, switching browsers, and clearing cookies didn’t help.
