Anyone being on a long deployment either on ship or land will understand the mental stress that change in life puts on you. Separation from family or a change in daily life. When I was in the merchant marine, long into a cruise I'd see certain individuals break down. In the military there are suicides, abet the military is under significantly more stress. Before deployment on a nuclear sub, crews are subject to rigorous mental health checks before isolating and confining them.

I see people at work going squirrely 12 months into COVID now. Some people think they have their shit together and they don't. If you talk to people you can sense different degrees of fatigue and breakdown. The mental health penalty is coming due. Lots of contributing factors. Isolation, loss of job, loss of normalicy, misinformation, loss of friends and family. Basically people endure change, stress and duration of stress differently.

We live in a snowflake society with short attention spans. Shit happens and they run. Others act out unpredictably. The potential for violence is there.

COVID has a secret and secondary symptom and victim. It has nothing to do with the virus either. The social decay we've seen for years coming was only accelerated by the neurosis of the media and alleged government leadership.

The weak minds are ripe for plundering and exploitation right now. Keep your shit together and keep an eye on you family and close friends.

Parminder Singh told Fox 59 reporter Courtney Crown that his niece called to tell him she had been shot in the shoulder by the suspect while she was in her SUV at a nearby gas station but she’s expected to be OK.



Jeremiah Miller told WISH-TV he was between shifts at FedEx when he heard several shots.

At least 8 people killed in shooting at FedEx facility. Former Assistant FBI Director Chris Swecker weighs in on 'Fox & Friends First.'
"This made me stand up and actually look out the entrance door, and I saw a man with a submachine gun of some sort, an automatic rifle, and he was firing in the open," he said. "I immediately ducked down and got scared and my friend’s mother, she came in and told us to get inside the car."

    This is the second largest FedEx facility in the world. They have extremely good security and logistics. Scary that this happened there. Praying for them.

This is spot on. I really think that the narrative of the left, and the mental stress from covid is causing many people to lose their grip.

I said the other day that it seems like alot more of these happen every time the left is in control, and it was asked if its just reported more. While its definitely reported more, I think in the era of covid with Xiden as pres, that it is definitely happening more.

I agree with this and saw a lot in the Army.
Luckily I thrive in combat and require solitude.
Covid has been a godsend for me, I dont have to make appearances at family or friends get togethers.

Drugs in the water?

Programmed minds that react to trigger words, pictures, etc.?

Secret Gov't minions that are laying in wait to do their dirty deeds?

How for 4 years with a POTUS that takes no names, the miscreants lay low.

Now? What's the signal that hey, let me light this place up, fuck it!

What's going on...? Access to meds? Like WTF!

I don't believe in coincidence... So you have a POTUS that clearly has proclaimed he will do something about guns, and then guns are lighting up the news media!

Well, no conspiracy there...

So has this been going on but has been kept out of the media because they had more important things to promote, like the ever fixation in Trump?!?!

Oh of course not, I'm confused right? Lol

Just like the media is ignoring all the stumbles, literally, being made by the current POTUS. Something that would have never flown if Trump was still in office.

It is what it is... And will be...

But I agree... Start stockpiling while you can!

What are the laws for automatic weapons in Indiana?
Did this guy have a Federal tax-stamp for that weapon?

Or is this more bullshit from one of the Fed organizations that specialize in bullshit.

I saw the report on good morning america this morning. They claimed without evidence the shooter had a machine gun. Completely irresponsible reporting but also expected.

It was the first time I had watched any mainstream morning news show. I was appalled by what I saw. In every segment they just kept repeating the same phrases over and over. But the biggest news story of the day based on the number of minutes allocated is the fact that A-rod and J-lo are breaking up their relationship but will remain business partners.

I don't know how many people watch this shit every morning but they must be complete morons. This show and I assume similar ones on the other networks give off a vibe of government controlled propaganda.

Many large scale work environments suck as far as management. stability is concerned. .. Hire someone off the street No idea how anything is run.. They work on the floor for 3-6 months and because they go drinking with someone higher in management get put in charge of all the old timers. Now they are bossing folks around that have been there for 20 years and know their jobs well... friction is unreal.. Folks snap ....

It's basically "burn out" but on a global scale. Remember the kid at summer camp who got home sick after a week? At some stressful companies there is a high employee burn out rate while some companies are more friendly to your mental health. Burn out was hit and miss., the rest of the world would just go on. COVID is this perfect storm. Know some pets that totally freak out at the first clap of thunder even though they are safe inside with you? Add "conditioned response" to the "burn out". A number of people are projecting their worst fears.

In the end we're going to see a world filled with neurotic hypochondriacs.

Latest updates as of an hour ago, still haven't released shooter's name. Guess they're waiting to scrub his social media as it likely doesn't fit the narrative.

If it was a white Trump supporter, his name and picture would have been made public within a half hour

(CNN)The suspect in the Indianapolis mass shooting at a FedEx Ground facility was known to federal and local authorities prior to the attack.
A family member of the suspected shooter reached out to authorities warning about the suspect's potential for violence, according to three law enforcement sources briefed on the matter.
It was not clear when the warning was given but the outreach was followed up by both local authorities and the FBI, which opened a preliminary investigation into any possible threat, the sources said.

19-year-old gunman who killed eight at Indianapolis FedEx facility was interviewed by FBI last year, his mom worried about ‘suicide by cop’

www.baltimoresun.com www.baltimoresun.com

The shooter was identified as 19-year-old Brandon Scott Hole of Indiana, two law enforcement officials briefed on the matter told The Associated Press. The investigators searched a home in Indianapolis associated with Hole and seized evidence, including desktop computers and other electronic media, the officials said. The officials could not discuss the matter publicly and spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.


Police Chief Randal Taylor noted that a “significant” number of employees at the facility are members of the Sikh community, and the Sikh Coalition later confirmed that members of the community were among the wounded and killed.
The coalition, which identifies itself as the largest Sikh civil rights organization in the U.S., said in a statement that it expected authorities to “conduct a full investigation — including the possibility of bias as a factor.” The coalition’s executive director, Satjeet Kaur, noted in the statement that more than 8,000 Sikh Americans live in Indiana.
