It's probably even odds that I'd be right where this happened on any given Saturday afternoon but today I decided I was lazy and didn't need to go grocery shopping. Damn.

Holy crap. Glad you're okay.

just another armed robbery. two wounded, it seems. initial reporting made it sound like he was shooting from the car, but that appears to have been false.

CHARLESTON, SC (WCSC) -

Charleston Police confirm nine people were killed Wednesday night after shots were fired during a prayer meeting inside Emanuel AME Church in downtown Charleston.

As i was tracking developments on twitter, I heard a rapid blast of gunshots from a couple streets away. Called 911, they had already dispatched cars. Needless to say, I don't want to hear about anybody's fucking gun rights tonight.

Horrible.

no f-ing way am i watching that holy shit

sorry, he uploaded the video after I posted the link... fuck.

Repeal the 2nd amendment everybody!

that twitter user must have been suspended in the last minute

He'd been filling his timeline for the past week with all the background shit that rolling news loves to pore over in the wake of a shooting: baby pictures, as a young man, selfies etc. Fucking hell.

by "twitter user" i mean murderer

for those of us who aren't gong to click on that link... what is in that link?

it's a disabled Twitter account

The gunman's (deactivated) Twitter account, wherein he pretty much handed the police an open and shut case.

Holy shit.

Yeah, you don't want to know. Especially since I clicked on the fucking thing just seconds after he uploaded the video.

He just took his own life.

Apologies again for anyone who saw the video.

just watching the first vid was disturbing enough for me and I should not have
