#1 facts trickle in, but another Media "shining hour":

first it was a "high-powered rifle" (presumably from an illegal gun show transaction and diverted from the rest of the shipment to Mexico) - in fact, it appears now to be several handguns.

second it was speculated another angry white guy on the local radio, appears now to be a 42 yr old Vietnamese-heritage, possibly recently fired from IBM....

let's see what else they can get wrong?

#2 Just watched the news conference -- receptionist is some kind of hero! Killer shot her, then continued room to room. She was shot in the stomach, played dead, when killer walked away, she called 911 --- gave description of the killer on the way to the hospital!

Police chief was there within 3 minutes (must have been close) county and state just showed up to help.

Some person got about 50 scared souls into the basement, and SWAT kept them there as they cleared room to room.
