I just got home from my zumba and seen on the news that another gym, about an hr from me, Bridgeville, PA was shot up tonight =( The dood went into an aerobic class... turned off the lights - and started shooting!! Witnesses said that it seemed like 20-30 shots were fired, at least!!!! The shooter did kill himself as well, and naturally they are seeking answers by the second... 9 or more shot - 4 dead!!!! (5 including the shooter) Assuming it is a lovers' quarrel gone bad.... What a shame!!

Keep the victims families as well as all witnesses in your thoughts over this trying time!!! Definitely a heart wrenching story!!!

This was such a terrible story and the man was very extremely disturbed. :( These poor people.

It made me so sick to my stomach to see/hear this. 52 total shots were fired and he was going after his ex-girlfriend. Did you hear the instructor was pregnant and it was her last class teaching before having the baby? She lived, but could you imagine the scare? Unbelievable. Doug was just telling me that his blog was still active this morning (they hadn't banned access yet) and he mentioned he tried to do it many times and couldn't bring himself to shooting them. But, he hated women anyway because supposedly so many rejected him. Definitely lots of prayers go out to them. I couldn't imagine going to a class and dealing with that :(

This is another example of why guns should be banned except for police.

Wow. This is so sad and tragic. My prayers go out to everyone involved. What a pity there are people in this world in so much pain they feel the only way out is to shoot a bunch of innocent people and then themselves.

OMG! That is terrible!!! I was also at LA Fitness today in CT taking my Spin Class. What's crazy is that the lights wouldn't go off today and I heard they wouldn't go off yesterday either. My prayers are with them.
