14. Typical "Rush" To Judgement...

Pardon the pun...well sorta...

As always the worst news in a developing story is a void...it opens doors for lots of speculation that takes on a life of its own. I also will wait to learn more about who the shooter is and his history. Those attempting to project a political agenda on such a situation do their cause a disservice...
