Currently locked down at home while the police search for the shooter, or shooters. early reports are saying at least ten dead.
Also possible this is a terrorist situation

Prayers for law enforcement and the people of Lewiston. I pray that they find him soon, hopefully with a self inflicted gun shot before he kills anyone else.

A 20-yr Army vet is the suspect (so far). They know what he's driving and have found the car.

Horrible situation. Many people have been killed. I believe the number is up to 30.

These freaking crazy people.

No, I don't blame guns. We've had widely-available rapid-fire rifles since lever-action weapons were introduced right around the Civil War. And yeah, there were mass shootings prior to the 1990s - but they weren't the societal plague that they have become.

The problem is that we've normalized insanity. High-strung or mentally-ill people are just left to their own devices; our cities are full of lunatic homeless, and our rural areas are bristling with paranoid nutters like this guy. All social factors that once restrained people - church, shaming, public hangings, etc. - have been abandoned almost wholesale. And the result is that these heinous people no longer have anything holding them back. In fact, quite the contrary - if anything, the fleeting 'fame' (infamy) associated with these crimes makes the act more attractive than ever for certain personality types.

My deepest condolences, thoughts and many prayers sent forth to all affected, directly and indirectly. I've always thought and have read many times how safe Maine is in comparison to other places in the USA. If this could happen in Lewiston, it can happen anywhere. Stay strong my friends, and let's hope and pray they find the beast who committed this atrocity in short order.
