Yep, I was there. You're going to hear a bunch about this incident over the

hear on the news or read in the papers as far as what led up to this
tragedy. Management is in full-on, info clamp down mode at this moment.



Well, *** 'em. 


Jeff (is that you or are you reposting?), I know it's natural to blame
management for everything after a traumatic event.  It's natural to
blame someone, and management is the most convenient target.  But think
about your own reaction when you found out there was a shooting.  You
were not behaving rationally yourself (e.g. yelling at fully armed
police).  Management are people too.  They were all probably scared and
confused just like you were,  Why would you expect anyone to calmly do
the rational things at such times?


Because it's their fucking job to be a cut above. That's what they get paid for.
