Clearly we have to ban video game football.
FYI - the tally is down to 2 + a suicide. Not much of a mass shooting.

I'll reserve, generally, but I'm betting there is a non-binary mother/father household involved here.

Also noticed a Lanza / Aspergers look and atypical behaviors of this Katz ass.
It's a safe bet this Baltimore Md resident was not likely to have a legal Fl carry permit.

Except this is a mass shooting, not a mass killing. They include all the other walking wounded.
And remember, the suicide of the perp is also one of the tragically killed via a gun.

Firefighters training nearby quickly respond to Fla. mass shooting
Jacksonville Fire Station 1 firefighters were conducting elevator training near the Jacksonville Landing when they noticed people running from the area
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — A group of firefighters who happened to be training nearby were able to respond quickly to a fatal shooting that left three dead.
The Atlanta Journal Constitution reported that Jacksonville Fire Station 1 firefighters were using their downtime Sunday to conduct an elevator training session in a parking garage close to the Jacksonville Landing when they noticed people running from the area.
“This was an odd sight to all of us and quite perplexing,” the station said in a Facebook post about the incident.
Firefighters said a man walked over to them and said he had been shot.
“At that point, training, experience and instinct take over,” the Facebook post said. “A few of us tended to the injured guy who approached us, and the rest of us formed a team and moved cautiously across the street to the restaurant this guy came from. Our active shooting training told us the scene needed to be cleared by JSO (Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office) before we were to enter, fortunately, JSO was quick to act on this day.”
The post added that some of the firefighters entered the active scene to begin checking on victims.
“This was a scene that none of us will soon forget, and probably just too graphic to put the details out on social media," the post said.
While visiting Jacksonville in the wake of the shooting, Gov. Rick Scott met with the firefighters.

“These brave men and women … work every day to help others,” Scott said in a tweet. “We cannot thank them enough.”
The firefighters added in the Facebook post that they are proud of how the department handled the tragic incident.
“We are a station full of tradition, we laugh together, we play together, and today we went as deep into the trenches together as we probably can. We go together and we leave together. One team, one family,” the post said.

David Katz carried out his killing spree at the Jacksonville Landing complex Sunday armed with two handguns, both purchased legally in Maryland less than a month ago.
Katz, who killed two fellow gamers before taking his own life, had two guns on his person — a .45 and a 9mm pistol — when he opened fire, leaving 13 victims in his wake.
Police officials said Monday that Katz had extra ammunition with him, but there was no indication Katz had planned the shooting in advance.
Purchasing a firearm at a licensed dealer means Katz would have had to pass an FBI background check that would have reviewed his criminal history.
Under federal law, people are prohibited from purchasing firearms if they are convicted felons; have a history of illegal drug use; have been adjudicated as mentally ill or involuntarily committed for mental health treatment; are classified as fugitives; or have been convicted of domestic abuse.

What if nobody posted his name or picture?
So, if this dweeb had been treated for mental illness repeatedly, how did he manage to purchase the pistols "legally"?
How did he transport them, "legally" to Florida?
How did he get them, "legally" into a gun-free zone?
And how would "universal background checks" make any difference vs. the background checks he would have supposedly already gone through?
And, for further tinfoil hat questioning, why does it seem that every recent mass shooting has some form of "official" group running training exercises nearby?
FBI, local police, firefighters.

A lot of mass shooters kill for the fame .. Many experts agree ... Don't make them a cleb... This fellow is in a different class... He lost and took his anger out with a gun ... If he won ... Would there be a shooting ... I don't think so. I believe he is one of the kids where everyone gets a prize ... Even if one come in last so not to hurt any feelings .
...and to think I had thought a mass shooting would have to be in a church

Heck...based on that sign and policy by Jacksonville Landing, anyone injured or who had relatives killed should have grounds to sue Jacksonville Landing for not protecting people in their establishment who they disarmed.good news, they have legal standing to sue the shooter, or his estate

From Dana Loesch:
To recap re: Jacksonville murderer:
- He was twice institutionalized for mental issues and was on anti-psychotic drugs
- His parents worried for a long time about his mental state
- He legally purchased two handguns in his home state MD which has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation including: Universal background checks, magazine capacity restrictions, registration, requires Handgun Qualification License to buy a gun, is a may-issue state wherein applicants have to substantiate good reason to conceal carry
- MD and FL do not have reciprocity meaning the murderer illegally brought his gun to Florida with him
- The murderers were carried out in a gun-free zone that gamers say had little to no security
Every gun control law was in place. So why are some blaming law-abiding gun owners and NOT the actual murderer?

1. "Even though federal law prohibits the sale of firearms to certain individuals with a history of mental illness, history has shown that it’s still too easy for dangerous people experiencing a mental health crisis to obtain firearms. Currently, laws are in place that require licensed dealers (but not unlicensed sellers) to conduct a background check prior to the transfer of a firearm to screen out these and other prohibited purchasers.1
However, federal law cannot require states to make information identifying these people available to the federal or state agencies that perform background checks,2 and many states fail to voluntarily report the necessary records to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), especially with respect to people prohibited from possessing guns for mental health reasons. As a result, some individuals known to be dangerous can pass background checks and obtain firearms."
2. "He drove"
3. "He walked in. There were no security checks".
4. "It only works if the Feds require everything to be reported."
