Breaking. Mass shooting at a Walmart in Virginia. Some reports say a manager started shooting at employees. Early statements say 'no more than 10 killed.

If it's true that a manager did it, it would be the first management shooting I have heard of. It's usually the disgruntled employee who goes nuts.

Horrific. What kind of a sick human being wants to kill people just trying to make an honest living??? The news just keeps getting more depressing and crazy. More should be done than just "thoughts and prayers".

A manager still reports to someone. With limited information it may have been personal then a few other employees tried to intervene. Saw one report they took themselves out.

Retail is tough enough. Don't need management like that, Geez

Hmm, when I’ve had enough of a job I just quit and walk away. There were some coworkers and bosses I fantasized about hitting or telling off but never enough to shoot.

What is going on in our society that is putting people over the edge ? It is seriously disturbing, that this phenomena just keeps escalating. How does one go from normal to mass murderer ?

Not surprised. These shootings happen in bunches. Wall-to-wall media coverage practically guarantees there will be another one. It’s just advertising to the next shooter.

Investigators believe the shooter was an employee or former employee of the store who opened fire on other employees in a break room.
Officials believe the shooter at some point turned the gun on himself, according to the source.

Tuesday's shooting happened as the US has recorded more than 600 mass shootings so far this year.
So, about two per day.....
