Active shooter in my city at Walmart

My friends just alerted me of an active shooter in my city.
I will update the thread as I receive news.

It seems that there was a person who was extremely angry, left the store and went back to his car to get the firearm.

No manifesto. No intent know, thus far.

It may be a simple personal beef. No word on casualties yet.

It's been de escalated and one casualty has been taken to the hospital. This is only about 2 miles, as the crow flies, from my home. When forced to go to Walmart, this is where I go.

MKSixer ......dude....I don't even know what to say. I thought about this Sunday night as I saw the news. This will eventually be a trend that is going to hit close to home for many.

I don't like to carry. Its uncomfortable and it's just something else to deal with.

But comfort vs being shot at with no gun.................I will chose to be uncomfortable.

I'm with you. I have been putting off getting my permit just because I don't want to feel like I need to carry. I'm very quickly seeing how ignorant that mindset is. I foresee a permit and purchase of a more comfortable gun in the near future.

Thanks guys. I'm at the mid city office so I'm safe but this is the Walmart I go to when I'm forced to go to a Walmart.

This is just foking ridiculous, sad, sickening, frustrating and quite frankly out of control.

I was literally just talking with my wife about me starting to carry again. Which she is not a fan of. The thought of my beloved family and young boys being in danger for no good reason other than "rabid and blind hatred" is just beyond words. I haven't carried in years. But the amount of intense hatred coupled with brazen lack of respect for human life, has gotten beyond out of hand in the last couple of years. And it seems to be ratcheting up.
God help us all....

This. I'm now considering the same.

Update, to your point, Big Marcus.

It will be interesting to see if WalMart does anything - although I really don’t know how they can secure the parking lot and store.

On the other hand, have you ever noticed how WalMart is laid out inside and even their parking lots? Lots of good places to take cover because the aisles are not parallel. That means also lots of ways to work your way out a back exit without the shooter seeing you. Might want to scope it out next time you’re in the local WalMart (or any other store) so you have an exit plan in mind.

MKSixer glad this is resolved for your store.

Kinda crazy to think that since most of us know each other only by our screen names, how would we ever know if tragedy struck? All of a sudden someone just stops posting and disappears.
