Mental case ? Leftist ? Mighty righty with a weapon ? Maybe a Russian invasion ?
CNN will define the shooter according to their agenda.

In the meantime - this is a report from the Charleston Post & Courier

One can only hope. At least we'd have something real to worry about.

It's a hostage situation from what I read.

An "active shooter" means at least one round was fired.

Why is this national news? Probably 3-people shot this morning in Chicago. Is there an agenda here?

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear this! I'll keep your daughter, you, and your family in my thoughts. Keep us updated.


For those making silly jokes about what's happening: please show some respect for the people directly affected by this crisis situation.
