Post 175940 by Halloween Jack deleted for the following reason: There have been an awful lot of these "people are angry on the internet" posts and they seem to be self-perpetuating.

But personal editorial or blog-style writeups really aren't how posts on the front page of MetaFilter work, especially so for fraught stuff like awful news. Beyond that, this is an awful incident but it's not immediately clear that there's more to talk about here than "some asshole shot people for some reason"; there's not really any clearer reason for this being a post than the deleted one from yesterday. -- cortex
