I'm sure the NRA crisis team and public relations action squad are already on their private plane, headed to the scene to disseminate the propaganda and ammunition coupons.

It's sad to hear of another shooting, hopefully no one dies and the suspect(s) are soon captured. However, it wouldn't surprise me if I'm wrong.

Initial reports are at least 12 dead so far.

Hopefully not another white. These terrorists make it so much harder for the rest of us.

The fact that all signs are pointing to two gunmen and the fact that this is a center treating the mentally disabled makes this much, much more likely to be an act of domestic terrorism.

Honestly attacking such a facility makes no sense at all....period.

This hits a bit close to home. A few years ago my sister had regular errands in this building when she had a job in linking teens with social workers Sad

Multiple shooters and such a senseless, illogical target makes me think ISIS sympathizers. Probably not the actual organization, but if there's any link, expect politics in this country to get far uglier fast.

My youngest brother regularly attends sessions at institutions similar to this. It's very disturbing. I hope my suspicions are not confirmed as more develops.

As there is a shooting pretty much every day, it's always too soon, by definition.

Bomb squad reportedly on the site trying to defuse what might be an explosive.

Or if only Republicans treated this epidemic as seriously as the Ebola one.

Apparently there was a county Christmas party or something that was attacked.

Him, what sort of motive could be behind an attack on such an institution? Especially as this seems to be more like a terrorist attack than a lone madman.

My God, on 9/11 you tools would probably be making snarky comments like "if only the World Trade Center had a gun" wouldn't you?

Terrorism is about terrorizing. Striking the most innocent and least offensive subset of the American population (the mentally disabled, autistic, etc) is a good way to strike fear into the hearts of America.

No because on 9/11 everyone in the country immediately agreed that we should try to do something to prevent similar tragedies from occurring in the future.

I agree with Crabcake that the motive here seems very peculiar.

Hearing that the area that was attacked was actually not the center for the developmentally disabled but an area of the building that was rented out to a third party. If that's the case, this could turn out to be a workplace grudge of some sort, where the institution/workers were the target. No way of knowing until the culprits are identified - and we actually know if there are multiple shooters.
