Ho hum! say the American gun lovers.

Only 5 die, that's not too many. This time at place of employment. 5 police officers shot, 2 when they arrive at the manufacturing complex and 3 others when they run into an active shooter situation. None of the police officers are critically wounded. Shooter was told he was going to be sacked. Next time tell him and then escort him off the property with police officers present.

Any shooting where less than half a dozen get killed seems to be more or less a non-story.

So so tragic. A country still living in the 1800’s.

I found out that one of the victims in this shooting was on his first day of employment in the Human Relations department of this manufacturing facility. He was on an internship from uni.

The shooter was to be sacked that day. He was a previous felon who got his gun through a mistake in the system. The county sheriffs in Illinois must report felons to the state of Illinois and some how this felon was not reported.
