Just when you thought it was over, the person early detained was unrelated to this, there is still another suspect being pursued being shot at and returning fire.

Before people get bent out of shape, long gun simply means "not handguns". I'm assuming they don't know if that means shotguns or assault rifles or whatever at this point.

To clarify, the two most basic and most meaningful distinctions among firearms are between: 1) side arms (handguns) and long arms (rifles, shotguns), and 2) fully automatic fire and requiring each round to be fired separately.
A semi-automatic gun still requires each round to be fired on its own, but each new round enters the chamber as soon as the previous round has been fired, so firing can still be very rapid. AK-47s are fully automatic, so basically they are machine guns, with an option for semi-automatic operation.

that's what i was thinking --- even if the shooting was "because of a dispute" it was a dispute the person anticipated having, and planned to respond to

From the NYTimes
"Investigators believe there were three gunmen and one of them had worked at the facility and recently had a dispute with fellow employees, according to law enforcement officials. A witness has told police that although the gunmen had their faces covered, one of them sounded and appeared very similar to an employee who had left the facility earlier in the day. “They had their appearances covered but a witness believed it had been someone who worked there,” said one official."

I called one of my employees on his personal cell while he was on vacation, with clammy hands, playing what-if games in my head, then he picked up and reminded me he was in Hawaii after Thanksgiving. I have a couple or three coworkers from a CSUSB scholarship program. I hope I don't learn anything extra-special-horrible tomorrow.

As one of the boards resident Houstonians (and also as someone who lives not far from where the incident happened), I should point out that this is highly unlikely to be political because it happened at a clinic. and more something that was par for the course in the sketchy neighborhood the clinic happens to be in.
