Except you said the Feds showed up. State employees aren't Feds.

Pro-tip: everything in law enforcement gets money from the Feds if it's asked for.

Moving the goalposts and such.

Yeah, funded by the Feds. And if it's funded by the Fed, it's controlled by the Feds.

Details and such.

Hmmm...I guess the transitive property does work, here. If A=B, and B=C, then A=C.

Damn feds...those are MY tax dollars!

But the point is that they're not directed by the feds at the ground level...but I get your point, too.

Shooter confirmed dead now. No word on the victims other than the cop, who is stable.

From what I've seen Two people from the Navy and the one cop are the only people that where shot by the shooter.

They're saying the cop and four Marines. Mayor has a presser scheduled for 2, where more details are supposed to be released. I can't find any real solid report on anything other than the link I posted.

FOX just said the 4 Marines are dead.

RIP

ETA: they are saying that a local channel told them 4 Marines are dead. so...........

ABC is saying one cop and two Marines wounded.

What the hell is going on with the casualty reports?

Second edit - "local unconfirmed report from a source we trust" says two Marines dead one critical cop stable.

ETA - as of 12 minutes ago...

CNN says 3 killed, 3 hurt.

If this is accurate, that's terribly sad (about the Marines, at least).

Reuters now saying "at least one Marine shot, one police officer."

Meanwhile CBS is saying four dead Marines and a dead shooter.

I live in Chattanooga and I am heartbroken. The news outlets here are reporting it is not terror related. Which I don't believe for a second, a non Terrorist would not do something like this

Is it just me, or does it seem like almost Every time there is an "active shooter", a lone gunman, they are at a Naval base or something of the sort? Is this just coincidence? What's the deal with disgtruntled madmen shooting up Naval yards?

Thoughts and prayers to those affected by this violence, very sad that this is commonplace nowadays

Yes, that is exactly what I heard also...thoughts & prayers out to victims & families. Very sad....Time to get the bottom of who did this!

The mayor stated that four individuals were killed. How awful!

Press conference has begun.

Texas girl beat me.

Very very sad day

Every source I've seen now saying 4 Marines and the gunman are deceased.

All saying confirmed.


Madness.
