Now they're saying "just" three dead. Three shooters are at large. They wore military camo and black face masks. They are believed to have driven away in a black SUV. No update on the several suspected bombs left in the buildings.

Two suspects are dead in a black SUV. Another is loose in the surrounding area. They've blocked-off the neighborhood.

According to several people who were at the conference one person came looking for one person (whose name is being withheld) and after being told she was there all three gunmen invaded the center. This seems to be a case of a work grudge of some sort.

Only one shooter is dead the other is wounded. The police are searching a large area for the third.

There was another mass shooting in Savannah, GA today. No details other than one dead, three wounded.

There have been 355 mass shooting incidents in the U.S. so far this year.

No, but things were foggy. I'd like to know how people at the conference as well as the cops when they fired on the SUV said there was a third person.

Since both the husband and wife have Arabic names I'm now expecting a lot of "Arab terrorist" crap out there. This seems to be nothing more than a case of workplace violence.

More of a monologue. That exemplifies how details come out of an incident like this: jumbled.

When the shooting happened in Colorado Springs, the news immediately branded it "domestic terrorism". Two reasons: appeared to be an attack on abortion, and the attacker was white.

The news is quiet about what to call this. They are like ewe, I mean you.

The shooters in this case were well prepared and "an" attack had been planned. The weapons, protective gear, and other items indicated days if not weeks of work. This was not a situation where someone got angry and fired on their workplace.

You are correct but it should be called domestic terrorism; there is no indication of any jihadist motive. The couple had prepared the attack for many days, even constructing bombs.

The news has been saying that apparently he had become radicalized without saying how that is apparent. I'm not saying he wasn't a jihadist, it's just too early to say either way.

Just a couple of normal, average, macho right wing nut jobs. Almost had as much weaponry and ammo as Carly Fiorina.

But you're right, Mr. President. We need to politicize this. Let's go ahead and ignore the 2nd Amendment and ban all guns. No need to go through all the trouble of repealing it. This is 2015, after all. You have a pen and a phone. God's not fixing this, so it's up to you. That will solve the problem, Mr President. If we made it illegal to have a gun, these two wouldn't have had all this stuff. Well, maybe the pipe bombs. They'd have to make more of them to make up for the guns they wouldn't have, because they wouldn't want to break any common sense laws in their planning to kill as many people as they could. That would just be wrong.
