It might be time for Lane Bryant to review their returns policy.

 
DrForrester 2008-02-02 04:08:36 PM  
Police Sgt T J Grady said officers responding to an emergency call found the victims inside Lane Bryant.

Someone really hates fat chicks. Probably a Farker.

A fatty taking out other fatties or just a fatty hater?

Has anyone claimed that the shooter posted on /b/ that he was going to do it yet?

 
mmagdalene [TotalFark] 2008-02-02 04:09:33 PM  
The victims were shot inside a Lane Bryant store? Oh the huge...nevermind.

Considering it took place at a Lane Bryant, using the term "at large" seems a bit insensitive.

/I used to work across from one at a mall
//It cracked me up when they had their "BIG SALE" events
///My fiance once walked up to a woman in one and complained that she couldn't find anything in a size 6
////I suppose it would have been difficult for the victims to hide
//No more slashies...off to Hell now

From another source:

Grady released a description of the shooter, saying police are looking for a medium-complected black man standing 5-foot-9, weighing between 230 and 290 pounds and wearing a waist-length black coat, a black knit cap and dark jeans.

I'd like to know how the hell the British Broadcasting Corporation knows what's going on in a Chicago shopping mall.

 
He_Hate_Me 2008-02-02 04:10:55 PM  
Not to give them ideas or anything, but if "Islamofascists" were really hellbent on attacking us, why don't they do something like this on a semi-regular basis? I mean, if we are to believe that there are hundreds of rabid fanatics who can't wait to die while killing infidels, there wouldn't be any barriers to giving them AK's and fanning them across middle America.

Nice, only thing is, you hafta read the article. Shoulda been:

"Five shot in Chicago mall Lane Bryant; four dead, shooter at large

Because the BBC is probably the best news service on the planet.

It's those cameras the Brits have everywhere.

 
JosephFinn 2008-02-02 04:12:49 PM  
Also, it's not in Chicago, but in teh hick town of Tinley Park.

Classy. Four people are dead and you all make fat jokes.

/Yes, I know this is Fark.

I know someone who lives in Chicago. I hope they're ok.

 
robbiedo 2008-02-02 04:13:39 PM  
Random mass murder is not humorous people. Your mom probably shops at Lane Bryant, or Kmart, or worse.

Five people have been shot at a shopping centre in the US city of Chicago

Not to be confused with the Guatemalan city

VideSupra: A fatty taking out other fatties or just a fatty hater?

FTFA: police were looking for a black man about 5ft 9 inches tall and weighing 230 to 260 pounds

Quite fat.

Before fleeing the scene, suspect was heard to remark "They had it comin', they had it comin', they only had themselves to blame. If you'da been there, if you'da seen it, I betcha you would've done the same."

 
uncre8tv 2008-02-02 04:13:55 PM  
I submitted this with a Greenpeace / Whale Hunt headline.

 
Shaggy_C 2008-02-02 04:14:29 PM  
Tinley park != Chicago. That's blasphemy subby...

 
ShereKhan 2008-02-02 04:14:36 PM  
And we got this from the BBC? Where the hell was WGN on this story?

 
Surly_Duff [TotalFark] 2008-02-02 04:15:00 PM  
Side note: Am I alone in not having seen the word "complected" before?

DandamanFL: From another source: Grady released a description of the shooter, saying police are looking for a medium-complected black man standing 5-foot-9, weighing between 230 and 290 pounds and wearing a waist-length black coat, a black knit cap and dark jeans.

Your momma's so fat, a gunman killed her in a mall and the news reported "four dead"

Use of unnecessary violence in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers has been approved.

 
RockyMountainSpottedFever 2008-02-02 04:15:53 PM  
Let me guess: this mall prohibits all weapons like the last one.

I came to say the same thing. Have the US news outlets gotten so sucky we have to get our up to the minute reports from the BBC? God save the Queen.

Now shush, you. You stop thinking and you be afraid!
The evil communist islamists wake up everyday hating freedom more and more and dream of killing you and everyone you love, dontcha know.

ShereKhan: And we got this from the BBC? Where the hell was WGN on this story?

It's been on CLTV (local 24 cable news channel affiliated with WGN) all afternoon.

I go to the Target across the parking lot from this Lane Bryant at least once a week.

Suspect is considered flabby armed and extremely dangerous

Yes. They have. Take a look at the CNN front page most days. Half of it is celebrity nonsense, a quarter is election coverage, and the other quarter is trends and feel good nonsense.
