According to MSNBC the shooter was recently fired from his job
Live updates: West Texas shooting rampage - CNN
Mail carrier. I don’t know if this has been posted.
Just heartbreaking.
I co-sign every single word Ms. Blue Eyes. You help bring the human back into humanity.Beautiful words, Ocean. I enjoy reading your posts so much.
I got goosebumps when I read the statement by little AD's mother. She didn't just ask for people to pray for AD, everyone else affected, but also for the shooters...
What a gracious woman. I hope everyone will meet her request. MOO
ETA: Your post was worth reading twice. You should have left the duplicate, lol!
So, so, sad.

A USPS mail carrier is one of the 7 victims

Mary Granados, 29, was working as a mail carrier for USPS and at the end of her shift when she was shot and killed, according to her twin sister, Rosie.
Rosie said she was on the phone with her sister when she heard her scream.
"It was very painful. I just wanted to help her and I couldn't I thought she had got bite by a dog or something. I tried calling her name and she wouldn't answer," she said.

"We are all broken, we are all suffering about this. She was a very beautiful person. She was very friendly and was always smiling," she said.

Interesting about the mail carrier, probably a contract worker. The post office has "A scale and B scale" workers now. Those who work for the post office, or those who work at the post office for a contract carrier.
If it is actually a government worker who was killed, I believe that federal charges will be added to the state charges. Not sure if it matters if this was a contract worker. But it will make a significant difference in the amount of money that the family will receive.
We lost young ones yesterday.So, so, sad.

We are also a people of action. We value work, innovation, and making progress. Yet, what are we doing to fix what ails us? Point fingers. Fight. Blame. We're doing just about everything except fix the problems. Why are we stuck and not changing?!?I have faith but this is ridiculous beyond belief!
Why does America accept this! No other First World Nation lives like this. Absurd. Revolting!
They're not naming him. Not giving him the notoriety!
