Some dipshiat on ABC15.com is claiming that this is in a gang area. Right, roving gangs attacking office complexes.

Exactly. Arson is much more effective in such a case.

I wonder if this was in a gun-free zone. That shiat works.

This is Arizona. No such thing as a gun-free zone. (Legally, maybe, but we likes our guns 'round here, boy.)

It's not like this is a rare occurrence. My husband has witnessed two workplace shootings in Phoenix. One outside a transmission shop in Sunnyslope while he was on his way to pick up his mom when her car broke down, and one right next to his workplace as he was pulling into the parking lot. I'm sure he's relieved he didn't have to see this one.

We don't need to arm every cube dweller, but there is no reason those who are allowed to CC legally shouldn't be armed if they want to be.

Why is this even news?

"Some Americans shot some other Americans" is as much news as "Some Frenchman drank a glass of wine"

It's just what they do...

there are some people at my office who are pretty territorial with the copier and the toaster oven since we got it two months ago. it browns up chicken breasts real nice (the toaster oven, not the copier).

That'll teach them to leave off the new TPS report cover sheet.

I see that I was beaten to an "Office Space" reference. And by a large margin, too.

Every time LaPierre speaks there is a mass shooting.

natmar_76		2013-01-30 03:02:10 PM

Clearly the answer is more guns.

Sadly, less guns is not going to stop this either. We have a violent society. We glorify violence in media. We've made the military the most important thing in the nation, and arguably the world. Our favorite sports are extremely violent. We still promote violence, not just in action but in speech and interpersonal behavior, as a means to ending disagreements. We treat each other with shocking disregard in every day life. Yet we act surprised when people act violently.

Gun control will not stop random violence. People will use other weapons, bombs, chemicals, or even hand weapons. Gun control is treating the effect, not the cause. The NRA has one thing right, and it's that people kill people (with guns, and bombs, and poisons, and knives, and even their bare hands).

When you change the culture, you'll reduce incidents like this. Until then, it will still happen.

moonscatter		2013-01-30 03:02:33 PM

The comments on Chron.com (Houston newspaper) are blaming this on liberals who are angry. Riiiiiight. I wonder if that's the new talking point?

/you know how I know I am in Texas? my desk drawer has a gun safe built into it.
//And that poor kid was killed who performed at Obama's inaugation
