This has really been bothering me. Speechless. God bless them. I won't give the murderer infamy/fame by mentioning his name.

I was on my Fox News Geraldo-at-Large kick this weekend and they were talking about this tragedy. I can't find that clip of the episode on their site. There was a point when the potential victims realized this murderer wasn't really a police officer. He was able to not only shoot people who were running towards him, shoot people running away from him, shoot people in the water, and re-shoot people to make sure they're dead. I am paraphrasing but a guest was saying something to the effect of how shocking, yet not that uncommon, it is that 1 person is able to kill so many people. There is one person that I have read about who was able to pretend that she was dead; and at least one person who was able to save others' lives. But, what tends not to happen in such tragedies is people coming together (whatever that means in each situation) to stop the mass murderer in his/her tracks. 20+ people seem more powerful than 1 person at the surface-level but the shock of this makes it more complex than that.
