Damn, active shooter situation going on in Colorado Springs, just breaking news on CNN, minimal details right now because it's just being reported.

http://www.cnn.com/2015/11/27/us/colorado-shooting-probe/index.html  (Not sure why the url has the word probe in it)

Edit: It's near one of those Planned Parenthood offices apparently.............

I know abortion protests can get pretty nasty, but I don't think I've heard of it going to this level. At least in my lifetime.

Abortion clinics have been bombed before, iirc.

Truly this aspect of the anti-choice movement is one of the culminations of irony in the political sphere. Nothing quite like murdering in the name of the sanctity of life.

And then let people pay off their tax debt by working for others. Unemployment: solved.
The best part about this is it's just sane enough that you pause and think "hey, that might be a good idea. Why don't we do that?"

CNN always goes for the most probing action humanly possible.

This presents an opportunity to mix gun rights with the abortion debate. #ArmFetuses2015

So who here thinks that this is gonna be labelled as terrorism instead of 'just an isolated incident, a tragedy'?

Higher than normal actually, given this is against a place that offers abortion services. CNN is already using the domestic terrorism label.

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Word is that the gunman was captured alive, so, at least we'll have some answers from this.

I still don't care about mass shootings. They should make t-shirts with that on it.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

That's just one poll. If you look at the averages of all polls...

It's pretty scary
