Someone decided to shoot up the office of a small Maryland newspaper called the Capital Gazette. The shooting has left five people dead and many injured.
Here’s a few news clips.
The Capital Gazette is a small local newspaper that isn’t overly political. They are owned by the Baltimore Sun but it doesn’t strike me as a place that one would target over politics. It seems more likely that this was a case of someone just going crazy over a personal issue of some kind. Of course, I’m just speculating at this juncture.
Police have the shooter in custody but there’s still no concrete details about them.
A couple of weird facts about this. They apparently had some sort of active shooter drill in the area a week ago and police responded to the shooting in 60 seconds. That’s going to fuel all sorts of conspiracy talk.
And we’ll definitely hear all the Jews in the media talk about how we have to ban guns.
Outside of that, we’ll just have to see how this develops.
