Active Shooter San Bernardino

[82_28]

The thing that strikes me is that say two, three or more all happened at once. With this wall to wall coverage how would the media even be able to "cover" it all? There is some strange narrative being plotted before us. I seriously do not get it. Good job.

The bandwidth within human capability would be too much. Thus I say shit is well under control in some fashion. This was planned for some media event for some further cause.

I seriously don't get it.

I'm getting a weird (read between the lines) rivalry with certain Leo agencies vs other agencies. Did anybody else pick up on that? Like left hand don't know what right hand is doing...

addendum:
WTF? Nothing else AT ALL, about the "suspect w/the AR ....

Bizarre, we don't know the identities or motives of the shooter(s) but Obama is already talking gun control. I mean they could be people whose profession allows them to carry guns for all we know right now. How is this in the wake, seems like the third act is still being played out.

Washington (CNN)President Barack Obama reiterated his call for more gun control reforms to make mass shootings in the U.S. "rare as opposed to normal" in the wake of a mass shooting in San Bernardino, California.
Speaking to CBS News moments after news broke of the shooting, Obama called for "common sense gun safety laws" and urged lawmakers to pass a law to prevent individuals on the "No Fly List" who are barred from boarding commercial flights from legally purchasing firearms.

"We don't yet know what the motives of the shooters are but what we do know is that there are steps we can take to make Americans safer," Obama said in the interview. "We should never think that this is just something that just happens in the ordinary course of events because it doesn't happen with the same frequency in other countries."

Obama said the pattern of U.S. mass shootings "has no parallel anywhere else in the world."

I would have thought this was certainly bullshit given the nature of the attack, if not for the fact the perps were caught hours later in the same fucking vehicle. It still seems odd to mount such a massive -- multi-shooter -- attack over a fucking argument at a party. Unless that argument was about Queen vs. David Bowie.

Via: LA Times

As many as three assailants, who carried long guns and wore masks, opened fire on a gathering of San Bernardino county employees around 11 a.m., sources and a witness told the Los Angeles Times.

A senior federal official who is monitoring the case said investigators believe one of the shooters left the party after getting into an argument and returned with one or two armed companions.

The shooting took place in a large conference room on the grounds of the Inland Regional Center, which serves people with developmental disabilities in Riverside and San Bernardino counties.

A black sport-utility vehicle was seen fleeing from the office complex where the shooting occurred. Shortly before 3 p.m., police began pursuing a black SUV in San Bernardino, though it was not immediately clear whether the car chase was linked to the attack.

Authorities confirmed that a suspect had been shot in connection with the car chase. It remained unclear if the pursuit was linked to the attack. A police officer was also shot and sustained non-life threatening injuries during a firefight that followed the pursuit.

They have active-shooter drills every month or so.

San Bernardino shooting: Dramatic video shows police storming Inland Regional Center

Dorothy Vong, a nurse at the Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino, recorded this video around 11 a.m. to send to her husband, thinking it was a active-shooter drill.

At first, Dorothy Vong assumed it was a drill -- just like all the others at her work.

At the Inland Regional Center, where she’s a nurse, the staff works with clients and parents of clients who are sometimes angry. They have active-shooter drills every month or so.

“Drill started,” she texted her husband, Mark, around 11 a.m.

She walked to a window nearby and filmed a video as law enforcement sprinted toward the building.

“Oh, that is scary,” a voice says calmly in the background.

“They’re all geared up!” someone else says. “Rifles and everything!”

In the background, someone laughs -- they still didn’t know.

Then the reality set in.

She texted her husband again: “Well it’s real.”

And then a few minutes later, another message: “We’re in a locked office.”

Mark Vong said he told his wife to stay calm and not to panic.

“They train for this,” he said, standing outside a police barricade Wednesday afternoon. “They know it’s going to happen.”

The shooter or shooters who attacked the center apparently opened fire on a Christmas party being held by county employees, federal law enforcement sources and a witness told the Los Angeles Times.

The shooting, which left at least 14 injured and at least 14 dead, happened on the grounds of the Inland Regional Center, which serves people with developmental disabilities in Riverside and San Bernardino counties.

From a guy who works in the area: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-12-02/mass-shooting-active-shooter-california-san-bernardino-fire-officials-report-20-vict

What is wierd is that this shootout is only about 2 miles north of the initial shootings. 4 hours later the perps are only 2 miles away? There were no road closures, freeway closures, there really wasn't much of a sense of urgency in terms of creating a peripheral zone to keep road traffic from flowing as normal and the bad guys from getting away. Local businesses and schools were locked down of course, keeping most people inside. Even the local radio douchebags John and Ken were noting that there was no sense of urgency at the initial site in regards to finding the perps, but their reasoning was the cops didn't want the perps to think they were on to them ??

As soon as the FBI came out on the press conference my skepticism increased 100 fold. Lo and behold a few hours later just a few miles away the suspects are down. They could have been in Las Vegas by this point, instead they are two miles away IN THE SAME VEHICLE? WTF?!

yea that's what I said

maybe they stopped to get gas or a slurpee

I'm getting a True Detective season 2 vibe from some of this. Like a LEO-County employee-pork barrel power struggle getting so real that someone decided to set soldiers on a party.

Never before have I read or heard the phrase "long guns". It has appeared in much of the reporting on this incident.

I think the American Collective Unconscious just Jumped the Rubicon ...

It will be interesting to compare how this event shakes out compared to the other recent Bunny Park mass shooting...
