Is "Going Walmart" the new "going postal"?

#1

Post by Suck My Glock »

'Laughing' Walmart worker opened fire in break room of Virginia store then turned his pistol on himself in 'targeted' pre-Thanksgiving rampage: Seven dead - including gunman - and four hospitalized

The suspect has not yet been named, and it's unclear if he killed himself or was brought down by someone in the store.

The Dems are so disappointed he did not use an "assault weapon." That won't slow them down much, though. Background checks, red flag laws, (pistol) magazine capacity, yadda yadda.

Thanks Bill. I kept looking for info on the local channels but couldnt find anything. Is frys even open at 4am or was it Employee on Employee violence?

Edited to add
I finally found it or it just appeared ... so the store was closed. Interesting

About 12 years or so ago there was a police shootout with a suspect in the parking lot of the Ellsworth and Broadway store. My wife was shopping there when it happened.

Wondering if the killer shouted Allahu Akbar.....the dude in the video was not to shaken, even seemed to smile while explaining what happened.

Probably best if we turn in all our guns, with all the newcomers to our Country they might get the wrong idea and think they need guns too...........and knives.

He's not exactly a newcomer. He had worked for Walmart for 12 years.
