Trolley Square Shooting - Feb 12, 2007

Post by TheStuboy »

I was in this area this morning, this happened around 7 pm right as I was walking to eat. I can still see helicopters flying around as we speak and the TV coverage is going crazy. Edit: The Gunman is dead, but there are multiple fatalities at this point. CNN is running video, but obviously focusing on "more important" news. As I first heard this report while eating, some asshole kid was yelling "yeah shoot em up, shoot em up." What the fuck is wrong with people, I wish someone would have kicked his ass, inconsiderate prick.

The story is making the national news today so I have seen a few articles on it. Pretty f-ed up I must say.

Yes, how nice that CNN had more interest in Anna Nicole Smith than the murders of 5 people. That goes for the rest of the networks too. Yahoo was the first to actually feature the story on its front page.
