    Is that a definative location?

    the location CNN is reporting. but it might be misleading. It sounds like more of an office building, now that I've read it, than a facility that houses disabled folks.

    I never had the impression that it housed anyone. I read it as being a social services office dedicated to people with developmental disabilities. Now it sounds more like that is one of several services within the building.
    And now up to 14 wounded, 14 dead? Holy fuck.

    I live nearby in Upland which is just east of the county border and am a client of that regional center since I have Asperger's. This became very fucking personal. May those terrorists get what they deserve ASAP by the armed law.

    OMG, I'm so sorry, Yes, that is very close to home for you especially.... Glad you weren't there at the time.

    Prayers aren't going to help any future victims of these mass shootings, the US needs action, they need gun control.

    Wow, scary shit. Glad you're safe, and sorry that you have to deal with this. These events aren't just news stories, these acts are destroying lives and devastating families and communities. When will it end? Hopefully before we're all numb. It is a frustrating and helpless feeling watching these events unfold.

    Wonder if there are any people that are reconsidering their position on guns?

    GUN control won't happen and it will NEVER happen in this country. Out of the many mass shootings this one is a FIRST.......they planned to get away and they did just that. Now THAT is scary....what's next now?

    That's what gets me (assuming it's accurate) - it being coordinated - and that no one has yet been captured. Pretty rare.

    InHiding, I'm miles away and it feels close to me so I can only imagine what you must be going through. Keep safe.

    I know, I mean it's absolutely insane to wonder how someone applying to become the most powerful person in the country would react to repeated mass shootings. Just fucking crazy

    It's way to early for anything other than thoughts for the injured and support for those who have lost loved ones. They don't even have a generic description on who did this....
