As one of the boards resident Houstonians (and also as someone who lives not far from where the incident happened), I should point out that this is highly unlikely to be political because it happened at a clinic. and more something that was par for the course in the sketchy neighborhood the clinic happens to be in.

Bizarre Spree shooter love triangle

Blowout Coombes (President Keyes), Thursday, 3 December 2015 01:52 (ten years ago)

this is one legitimately bizarre mass shooting if that story holds true

I dunno, "disgruntled employee" was the first thing that popped into my head about this tbh. Or have people forgotten where the phrase "going postal" came from.

feel like the question of mental health needs to be asked of people who think praying is all we can do

Ugh praying for anything can go fuck itself imo.

NBC News now reporting a US citizen named Sayeed Farouk believed to be one of the people involved in the shooting.

polyphonic, Thursday, 3 December 2015 02:21 (ten years ago)

as soon as I heard that this was probably a group thing it reminded me of Paris nov 13. i didn't want to draw conclusions that being said. just saying it reminded me of.

woah, that's big, sorry. anyway, it's about time we did a little god-bashing.

scott seward, Thursday, 3 December 2015 03:03 (ten years ago)

I get their angle, but timing and multiple suspects should have caused the Daily News to wait for details before labelling this a run-of-the-mill spree killing.

Adam J Duncan, Thursday, 3 December 2015 03:03 (ten years ago)

The 'cause' matters because the possible people behind it matter.

it would be kind of rude of me to stink up another country at this late date. i'm from here for better or worse.

scott seward, Thursday, 3 December 2015 03:50 (ten years ago)

after 9/11 and all that war fever i did take some comfort in the fact that maria had dual dutch/american citizenship at the time. but i can't smoke that much hash.

scott seward, Thursday, 3 December 2015 03:52 (ten years ago)

i think things would have to become a lot worse b4 i pulled the string on my exit parachute. at this point it would be like frying pan to the fire.

Mordy, Thursday, 3 December 2015 03:53 (ten years ago)

and to be fair, it has ALWAYS been pretty fucked up here. not for everyone, but its a pretty steady history of bloodshed. it's kind of a part of what this country is. millions killed here and abroad. in the name of uh the freedom to do stuff.

scott seward, Thursday, 3 December 2015 03:55 (ten years ago)

if i can figure out the professional licensure side of things i could very easily pull the chute --- half my relations are overseas anyhow

I'm all talk. If I haven't managed to leave FL for 35 years...

But London was nice when I visited 18 years ago

Hammer Smashed Bagels, Thursday, 3 December 2015 04:08 (ten years ago)

I still love the place where I was born and have lived about 97% of my life. Enough of the other people who live here are good natured and kind that I can stand the remaining assholes. Not gonna let a few spree killers chase me away.

ben carson says it's a 'hate crime', giving more credence to my theory that he doesn't know what words actually mean.

Oh, did you not read the entire quote? He explains himself very succinctly:

When asked by ABC News to clarify what exactly he means by "hate crime" in this instance, Carson said, “Well it’s hard to imagine that you would shoot a bunch of people and not hate them, right? You don’t do that to people you love.”
