    He was a regular at the club. He actually went to a second club and they disarmed him. He must have killed himself a short time after that.

    "When I got the courage, I lunged at him with both my hands, grabbed the weapon and we had a struggle. We struggled into the lobby, trying to get this gun away from each other," Tsay said. "He was hitting me across the face. Bashing the back of my head. I was trying to use my elbows to separate the gun away from him, create some distance."  
    Once he was able to seize the gun from the shooter, he told the man to leave. "At this point I thought he would run away, but he was just standing there, contemplating whether to fight or to run away. I really thought I would have to shoot him."
    But the shooter walked out the door and returned to his van, Tsay said, adding that he then called the police.
    The incident left him with bruising on his body, across his nose and the back of his head, Tsay added. "After the incident, I was shook. I was shaken all night. I couldn't believe what happened."

    LOL! The ugly mouse is wrong again. 
    the fact that you are celebrating that a poster may have been incorrect in his post instead of being angry/upset that this shooting happened says more about you than it does him.

    Yeah he'll get a big laugh about me being wrong too. I was thinking he offed himself soon after the second encounter but it was 1020am the next day. Police followed his van and he shot himself as they approached.

    And another one.   Half Moon Bay.  Ever been to Half Moon Bay, California?  If you have, you'd know why I can't understand how anyone could lose their shit on go on a shooting rampage.  Much as I hat that it happens anywhere, I think the shootings in overcrowded, over-polluted hard-core urban centers can at least partially be attributed to an environment not well suited for sentient beings.  But Half Moon Bay?  Well, then I guess it can happen anywhere.  How sad, how pathetic.

    At least seven dead in northern California shootings

    Two attacks in agricultural area near Half Moon Bay come within days of shootings in Monterey Park and Central Valley

    Seven people have been killed in an agricultural region of northern California, authorities said on Monday, the latest shootings to rattle the state in recent days.

    Two fatal shootings took place at a mushroom farm and a trucking firm on the outskirts of Half Moon Bay, a coastal community about 30 miles south of San Francisco, officials said.

    Dave Pine, the president of the San Mateo county board of supervisors, said that four people died at the farm and three at the trucking business, although it was not immediately clear if the incidents were connected.

    Authorities have said that a suspect is in custody. Television footage from the area showed officers taking a man into custody without incident.

    “There is no ongoing threat to the community at this time,” the San Mateo county sheriff’s office said.

    David Canepa, a San Mateo county supervisor, tweeted that one of the shootings had happened at a mushroom farm. Aerial television images showed police officers collecting evidence from a farm with dozens of greenhouses.

    The shooting followed the killing of 11 people over the weekend at a ballroom dance hall in the southern California city of Monterey Park, near Los Angeles. It also comes on the heels of a shooting in California’s Central Valley last week, where six people, including an infant, were killed in the small town of Goshen.

    “We are sickened by today’s tragedy in Half Moon Bay,” Pine said in a statement. “We have not even had time to grieve for those lost in the terrible shooting in Monterey Park. Gun violence must stop.”

    More details soon …

    Kind of sad the reactions mass shootings get in todays world. Outrage simply depends on race of the shooter and type of gun used it seems. Back to back mass shootings and zero discussion here. The troll posts seemed to get people more upset nowadays. Sad.

    There’s no way to know but I’d bet if both shooters were white conservative types we’d have at least a few pages of comments. Just another aspect of life dominated by politics. Sickening.

    WTF is all I have to say.  And half moon is one of the nicest places I have ever visited. Guns be gone. The strict laws work in Japan where the crazies walk off in the woods and never come back.

    I do agree with 2Aers, however, that it's not JUST the guns. it's many things. culture, mental health, etc.

    nah, it’s the easy availability, access, and lack of responsibility and accountability regarding firearms. ‘Muricans like it this way as evidenced by who they elect to office and the number of firearms sold. Nothing can be done. Thoughts and prayers.
