I used to shop there all the time when I lived in Wauwatosa. I hate to see this. Prayers up.

Just logged on, and was wondering why I hadn’t seen anything about this on the news (it is only 3 hours from here).

But since the shooter is black, it will fade from view.

Did you watch the Packer game? They interrupted the game every time the ball wasn’t moving with this news — all afternoon. It turns out that the shooter had been dead since before noon, but they couldn’t get into the Mall because he’d booby trapped it with an IED. THey finally discovered him dead inside the Salon about 5 PM.

As far as I know, we still do not know the names of the 3 dead women.

His wife signed the recall petition too. If they voted early, I hope Brown Deer pulls their ballots (as they are supposed to if a voter’s death is reported before the election.)

Well, there you go. Another motive.

He must have seen a Romney / Ryan sign and snapped.

I wonder if Brian Ross and the rest of the media will report on it..now just imagine if this guy had been a member of the Tea Party there would be non stop coverage..but since this guy signed a Recall Scott Walker petition there wont be a peep about it

Absolutely correct but that's OK, it's just the “New Normal” after all. / S

NO, not Islamist, this is a LBJ ‘Great Society’ case: Black man out of work, wife leaves him, he freaks out.

“Hi, AftR,

My sister and Dad live in WI; would you please add me to the ping list?”

That being said, I read some earlier posts on this thread about pharmaceuticals; if drugs were involved in this, it wouldn’t surprise me, as I lived in Colorado when the Columbine shooting happened. Eric Harris was on an antidepressant at the time, IIRC.

Whether prescribed or illegal, there are drugs that mess with your mind.

Angus is complaining about a Romney quote pertaining to gun violence and single-women-parents. I guess Angus has completely forgotten his friend Barry’s quote about bringing a gun to a fight, and about all the Chicago gun violence. He teaches at a University in New York. Figures.

I agree. But isn’t this more than that?

Really sick nut cases are generally under some sort of mental care. The left wants to register every gun. I think it’s time we start registering their weapons. Let’s start demanding the mental records of these patients be made public, so we can develop some sort of defense to them.

They have no qualms about making our records public.

.
Yes, they are, and that appears to be how they are acquired to do these massacres.

Jared Loughner in Tucson is a perfect example. It appears that he was hand picked by the sheriff to do the job.

The Columbine killers were similar, and it appeared that they were allowed time to do their work too.

Tim McVey was also previously identified as a useful idiot, and steered by the feds to the camp where he learned to do the tasks that they wished him to do.

Laws are already in place to do what you suggest, but they are not being followed WRT those willing to commit these acts.

Libs are suffering from a debilitating mental disease. THEY need to be registered and/or locked up. As the disease progresses to it’s final state: mental zombieism, they become self-destructive as well as extremely violent towards society.

Let's not forget that all of the locales have one thing in common: no guns.


Aurora (7/20)--The theater had an explicit stance as a "gun free zone" in all of its locations. Also, there is a ban against concealed weapons there as well.
Overview of gun laws in Colorado

Sikh temple shooting (8/5)--Who would expect to be shot in a house of worship, especially in the US?

NYC (8/11)--Pretty self-explanatory

And now the Brookfield Square Mall.

I can't even begin describing to you how much mush-mouthed garbage was on the news feeds for my social network pages after these incidents. I tried to explain the right to bear arms, but after all I was talking to drones. If this opinion keeps pervading society, then my generation is in very dire straits.
