VIRGINIA BEACH —A longtime municipal employee in Virginia Beach shot and killed 12 people Friday afternoon and injured several others inside a public works building before he was killed in a fierce gun battle with police, city officials said.
Police Chief James A. Cervera said an officer was among the wounded but was saved by his protective vest. He said the gunman “fired indiscriminately” with a .45-caliber semiautomatic handgun on several floors of the building, one of many in the complex.
The chief said people were found wounded on all three floors and that one was shot in a vehicle outside. He said four victims were in surgery Friday night.
Fucking party time in the U.S. of A.
I fucking love this shit. I used to be horrified. Now I'm just keeping score like at a Brooklyn Dodgers game when I was little. Yeah I actually saw the Dodgers play at Ebbits Field. I should get some sort of medal for that.
The latest shooter was a long time worker at that Muni-Center. I imagine he got laid off after 20 years, and knew this meant poverty, and eating spam when he was lucky. So he arraigned a going away party for himself.
Hey everybody is guilty so everybody dies.
Makes a kind of demented desperate sense. A lot of this going around. Workers screwed, and goes nuts because they know what comes next. Poverty, and eating cold Spam,...if they're lucky.
Three fucking man-killer guns plus ammo for every breathing asshole in this country. 300,000,000+ assorted shooters for the mob to play with. All ya need is motive, and opportunity of which there's rather a lot these days.
Good hunting.
The future beckons!
ReplyDelete"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
ReplyDeleteCreeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time.
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle.
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."

That Shakespeare guy was onto something.
ReplyDeleteI have seen the future, and it's too expensive, and dangerous.
