An attacker opened fire in a gay nightclub late Saturday, killing five people and wounding 18, officials said. The club said the suspect was subdued by patrons.
Authorities received a report of a shooting at Club Q at 11:57 p.m. and responded within minutes, said Lt. Pamela Castro of the Colorado Springs Police Department.
A 22-year-old gunman walked into the club and immediately began firing from a “long rifle,” police said. Two firearms were found at the scene.
The gunman was taken into custody around five minutes after police first received a call about the shooting at Club Q. Police said early Sunday morning the suspect was also being treated at the hospital.
“The hospitals are helping us to notify families of the injured… we do have officers at every hospital with all the victims,” said Lt. Pamela Castro.
Castro had few details beyond the number of dead and wounded. She confirmed the suspect was injured but didn’t know how and that the FBI was on the scene and assisting.

"WTF is a “long rifle”?"
Sounds like he used a Civil War era Springfield, Enfield or Sharps Rifle.

My guess is: homo groomers got a visit from an angry dad after their all-ages drag-fest earlier in the day.

This appears to be the 22-year-old gay nightclub shooter, probably his mugshot from last year's bomb threat arrest.That's Landon Glass, the man accused of running over and killing a girl during yesterday's Raleigh, North Carolina, Christmas parade.

Was that the original? The sawed-off high capacity automatic fire assault version was considerably shorter, wasn’t it?

Another tidbit. Club was advertising an “All ages Drag Show” coming soon. That means the place is a grooming operation among other things.

“Witnesses told WRAL News the driver of the white pickup truck pulling the CC & Co. Dance float was yelling that he had lost his brakes and could not stop. The truck then careened into the dancers as adults hustled them out of the road.”

saying they were investigating whether the suspect had been arrested before????? Takes them all of a couple minutes to check that.

No cable hand brake in a truck? Manual override to the hydraulic brakes... would work. But a 20 year old doesn’t know these things. This is tragic. Poor little mite.

Most homosexuals were molested as children, so anger issues are not a surprise.

The death of a disco dancer
Well, it happens a lot 'round here
And if you think Peace
Is a common goal
That goes to show
How little you know
The death of a disco dancer
Well, I'd rather not get involved
I never talk to my neighbour
I'd rather not get involved
Oh
Love, peace and harmony?
Love, peace and harmony?
Oh, very nice
Very nice
Very nice
Very nice
But maybe in the next world
