Multiple fatalities in Orlando shooting

[BigGuy66]

Just happened this morning at a business in Orlando. Story is still unfolding... I am saddened by the horrible attacks that happen to a lot of innocent people. Be vigilant. Prayers for our country and that the persons who plot and carry out these heinous crimes will be stopped.

It appears that the situation has been sorted out, and the shooter is dead...
They're saying that it was workplace violence: not a terror attack.
(Although that matters very little to the victims...)

Another needless tragedy. And it may well have been 'Workplace Violence'. I'm not saying it was not. But the 2009 Fort Hood shootings were also labeled 'Workplace Violence' while the shooter was yelling 'Allahu Akbar!' It was 6 years later when our previous president finally called this an act of terrorism.

It's hard to fix a problem that is consistently miss identified.

Agreed... initial reports may be wrong. :shocked:

Police statement on CNN says the guy had an incident three yrs ago battering a fellow employee, police were called. This current incident followed him being fired in April. Def seems like workplace violence this time
