Last report on the local radio says at least 5 dead, multiple wounded, no word yet on whether the gunman is dead or just arrested.

So let's play the game of guessing the ethnic/social group the shooter belongs to.

I give it 40% Muslim. 30% workplace violence. 20% relationship murder/suicide. 10% isolated psycho.

Esteban Santiago - 26 years old and had a military ID on him.

Just hoping he was regularly insane and not getting hyped up build the wall and the election.

That's terrible. Hopefully the nation is ready to mourn together and learn from these actions instead of pointing fingers. Wish we could prevent these things.

So what's the plan to spin this one into that white-country narrative?

Latest is that he flew in from Canada with the weapon checked in his luggage. Dunno if that is so since earlier reports said he came from outside into the baggage area, turned right and started shooting. Time will tell.

edit: apparently he went into a bathroom and got the gun and then went into the baggage area and started shooting. Was discharged from the Army a few months ago and flew in to Ft Lauderdale from Alaska, not Canada.

The act is disgusting this speculation about who did it and why is also disgusting given the sketchy info currently available.

Various reports claiming one gunman vs other reports claiming multiple. I haven't seen a definitive answer on that yet.

Police at the scene are quite definitively saying the ONLY shooting today is the first and only gunman at the specific baggage area.
One shooting, one shooter, area is probably secure.
