Shooting in Virginia

[hammerfan]

A television news reporter and her cameraman were shot and killed during a live interview. I just don't understand people anymore.

How tragic. Condolences to the families and friends of the victims.

Apparently, the shooter was a disgruntled ex-employee. He was gunning for the reporter and the cameraman.

Hammerfan, you stated that you don't understand people anymore. I, on the other hand understand them all to well, why they do the things they do, the things they say, etc. The shooter was disgruntled at being fired, obviously had some narcissistic-type disorder that made him hate what had happened to him.

Is it just me or is this shit happening more often then not these days? It really is just sad. Reasons I do everything late at night when most of the world is asleep with their shotguns and hostile thoughts.

You should be a therapist, MovieLover.

There is supposed to be a letter with his reasons out there. Although walking up to people doing a job with a gun needs little understanding. Perhaps they were singled out. There is a video that if real is unbelievable. The women didn't even pay attention to him and the camera man had his back turned.

Yeah, when I posted the first one, they had no info on the shooter. For all we knew it was a random shooting. Now I understand. I think it's sad that it seems like more and more people are turning to violence to "fix" their problems.

As MovieLover suggests, the real horror is not on the movie screen but stalks around us. Michael Myers never filmed his own killings.

Anger and aggression are perfectly normal human traits. But society has a whole frowns upon these acts and instead turn their anger in sarcasm and manipulation, aka Passive Aggression. Anger and aggression in some people has been totally removed by the establishment and I shudder how those types will survive during the coming civil unrest. As for me, I retain that aggressive side of myself and will be able to use it to commit extreme acts should the need arise.
