Another shooting, I believe this is the first large display of violence at one time, this year.

The suspect doesn't follow the more general profile of a mass shooter as most go in with the intention of committing suicide or going down shooting, however in this case he seems to have escaped for the time being.

EDIT: It would seem to me that the shooter is the patriotic sort who has a hate for immigrants as the choice of shooting people in a building that helps immigrants, sounds like a planned attack to me.

EDIT EDIT: CNN is reporting that the gunman is dead, I mistakenly thought he escaped as it said they locked down other areas of the city and giving his description.

Yea, relatively close to here, so kind of scary.

Also, I hate how a lot of organizations are referring to it as "upstate" New York. Maybe if people left the city once in a while they'd get it straight. I almost feel insulted.


RIP Hacker.

I used to go to Binghamton University. It's been almost a year since I finished up there, but yeah. The school was nice enough, but downtown was a hole. Scary thing to hear happen.
