Shooting in Boulder

Forums:

Hope all zoners in Boulder are OK!

My brother is taking my nephew to look at CU today and was a little freaked out at first, but he's just getting out of DIA.

I used to live a couple blocks away from that King Soopers.

 

It sounds like the shooter might be in custody.

Time for the Republicans to start rolling out their thoughts and prayers.

That's where my son shops. Thankfully, he did his groceries yesterday instead of after work today, which would have put him at ground zero.

6 dead, including a police officer.

shooter arrested, apparently.

colorado is a strange place. 

10 dead. Hope Colorado Zoners are ok

I'm numb and feel a deep sadness about today's events. This is the single worst thing that has ever happened in Boulder. The bubble just burst. I have been in many of the businesses in that shopping center. The Southern Sun is there. I really don't know what to  say except that I'm bummed. Stay safe out there folks. Peace. 

So very sad ...Sending Love to Boulder <3

Yikes, that's crazy!

I still go to that one when I'm in Boulder and need to go to the "regular" grocery store.

Numb and sadness indeed.

 

Horrible.   

They just identified the perpetrator as Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa who "spent most of his life in the United States."    That will certainly inform the narrative in regards to mental illness and access to firearms.

Colorado, for all of its progressive policies, is an open-carry state. That needs to change.

I just got an email from an old deadhead buddy who lives in Boulder and was in the the King Soopers where the shooting happened a couple of days ago.

This darkness got to give.

Yep, shopped there the year I lived on Table Mesa. Looked at the victim list (again) and didn't see anyone I knew.

I did recognize a peer's name on the list from the Aurora theater shooting. Not a friend, but an associate through work stuff.

Littleton, Aurora, Boulder...what's up, Colorado?

It's not just Colorado. America is stressed out and armed to the teeth. We need to figure out how to be happy.

The Prozac plan didn't work. All we are saying is give weed a chance.

Not a fan of the "journalist", but believe it's worthwhile to see ... at least in so far as it conveys the reality of this tragedy and not just another report on tv / print.

> Littleton, Aurora, Boulder...

Columbine.

That's an f'd up video. Dude left his friend to die. And that old dude walking out like nothings happened saying "yup, he went that way" barely even looked up from his phone

Yeah, there's a lot of f'd up things in that video.   You touched upon at least two of them.   Not sure there was anything that could be done for the people who were shot and laying on the ground, and it's easy for me to say, but I sure as f*ck wouldn't be focused on filming if there was even the slightest chance there was something I could do to help.

That live stream guy is hustling so hard he forgot his friend was still in the building and left for more news instead of sticking around to see if his friend is ok. Wow. Also, the shooter guy? He's 21? WTF happened to HIM? He looks like a 55 year-old couch potato.

"...after every mass shooting, the Democrats want to take our guns... "

Well, what else should we take away?!

If Lauren Boebert was in the house she would have capped that piece of shit.

Let's take a moment to think about the victims. Around here there seems to be about 6 degrees of separation until you know somebody who knew one of the victims or someone who was in the store and survived. This has really affected the community at large. Let's see if we can step up our kindness towards each other. Show love.
