Shooting at Mall in Omaha

Post by Pisces »

This is a mall I go to all the time. This was pretty terrible. People here aren't used to this kind of violence, either. This is the first incident of something like this happening here that I can remember:

Yeah, I've been reading about it on the news, pretty sad. I also feel sorry for the gunman, because you know someone has too.

I just hate how the news has been putting emphasis on his "This will make me famous" instead of what led to the shootings that likely caused this young man to go over the edge.

Very sad.. just goes to show this can happen anywhere. Media always over does it with the coverage of this kind of stuff. It sometimes causes "copy cats". Anyway, my thoughts go out the the victims' families and the shooters. What a horrible thing to happen and especially around the holidays.
