Reports are that "a lone white male", 59 year old John Russell Houser, stood up and fired at least 13 shots from a .40 caliber handgun Thursday night during a ~7pm movie showing of "Train Wreck" in Lafayette, La. He murdered two and wounded 10.
As people rushed from the theater, he joined them and headed outside, apparently toward his blue 1995 Lincoln Continental. Houser noticed the sirens from police converging on the theater and went back inside and took his own life.
There will be endless news reports with no useful information on motive as talking heads try to fill airtime so we'll leave this up and ask that everyone be patient and wait for more facts before posting wild conjecture (not that we want you to post wild conjecture then).
Expect the Antis to climb up on the bodies before they're cold as they always do to exploit this tragedy instead of waiting for solid information to come out of the investigation.
Our thoughts are with the victims and their families and friends.
