    All three?

    CNN probably had more Fox viewers on election night than Fox itself.

    I think that's when your banana hammock malfunctions.

    This is a very sad story. My heart goes out to the victims and their families.

    I can't believe some of the comments in this thread.

    I can't think about it right now, it will make me too angry.

    People deal with things in different ways.

    I'll say this though. What makes me most angry about these types of events, just like Orlando, and San Bernardino, is that they should have never happened.

    Agreed, but how could we have prevented it?

    Well, in this particular case, apparently he had a number of psychological issues that were never addressed. Why is a guy discharged for mental issues not flagged in NICS?

    If he walked into the FBI and tried to turn himself in, it should have been taken seriously.

    If it wasn't for PC culture, San Bernardino wouldn't have happened. Same thing with Orlando. The FBI KNEW about this guy, his security company pencil whipped his background and psych eval....etc etc.

    Aurora, CO. shooter, same thing.

    Fort Hood shooter, same thing.

    In short, the procedures, processes and laws that already exist could have stopped all of these things from happening, but those in charge of stopping these things fail time and again in a major way.

    We are on the same page. Its a shame that most people will focus on gun control and push for things that will not prevent tragedies like this one.

    Looks like it he lived in Alaska for a while and that is where he came to Florida . Alaska has a lot of snow therefore there are a lot of snowflakes in Alaska so yes he was a snowflake.

    This was CNN, a network that allowed Don Lemon to host a show while intoxicated. Stupid shizer is expected and the norm.

    They'd probably make him shoot heroin live on air if it helped their ratings any.

    I don't think even that could help though.

    Don't give Don that option, he'd probably take it.

    Could have been a MAGA hat, or a woman not wearing hijab? We may never know. It could have been that same mind control device that the Ruskies used to get WI Bubba's to vote for Trump.

    The shooter said the "government" was forcing him to watch Isis videos. Is she implying he may be right?

    His Facebook page is now closed. But I managed to see it before it was. In it, he declared himself a born again Christian.
