NY needs to loosen up right-to-carry laws.

Love this part: "Police did not release a description, but a police radio call after the incident instructed officers to look for a man with a backpack" .... great, we know what to look for

Very sad. My heart goes out to the victims and their families.

If NY gun laws were different, this might have had a better outcome like this:
Police Release 911 Tape Reporting Duluth Shooting - Peachtree Corners-Berkeley Lake, GA Patch

I have a backpack ... so vague; what was he wearing? What was his height? Skin color? Age range? Hair color?

Anyways, sounds to me like it was a drug addict who needed his fix. But what I don't understand is why kill 4 people? Take the cash, take the drugs ... but why kill them?

Exactly why kill innocent people, just take the cash and run.

I do believe in the right to bear arms. This state is communist.

The only thing that comes to mind was that the shooter dident want any witnesses ... but why is what confuses me? This sort of thing happens everyday. Im thinking that there might be more to the story then drug addict robs pharmacy.
