It was an argument between 2 people, the argument got heated and one drew a gun, innocent bystanders were hit, 1 bystander killed and cops shot and killed the gunman
Damn. We can never seem to escape the ghosts of our past.
FIrst of all, what the **** are you talking about?
According to someone inside the ESB right now that I know, her coworker had the gun pointed at her right before police took out the shooter.

A cold-blooded killer was gunned down by police Friday morning after he pumped two bullets into a man outside an entrance to the Empire State Building, cops and witnesses said.
Seven other people were wounded when the gunfire erupted shortly after 9 a.m. on the crowded rush hour sidewalks outside the iconic midtown skyscraper.
The shooting was apparently sparked by a dispute between co-workers at a business located inside the Empire State, sources told the Daily News.
Construction worker Chris Ogden was working on a scaffold above the building’s 33rd St. entrance when he watched in disbelief as the gunman — in a suit and carrying a briefcase — opened fire.
“He shot the guy in the head,” said Ogden, 23. “The guy went down. He took a second shot when he was down.”
The well-dressed shooter then “walked down the block, like nothing was happening, real casual,” Ogden said. “We were screaming from the top, ‘It’s the guy in the grey suit!’”

The gunman then turned the corner onto Fifth Ave., where he was shot to death by cops.
“The shot rang out, and everybody started running,” said another witness, a 40-year-old truck driver. “Oh man, there must have been 12 or 13 shots. It was amazing.”
It was unclear if the slain gunman opened fire on the wounded victims, or if they were caught in the crossfire outside the 102-story building.
The wounded were all taken to Bellevue Medical Center, police said.

First of all, the guy is like THREE weeks off.
First of all, you didn't "already" surrender anything.My dude. It's over. It was an err on my part. I've already surrendered that.Are you ****** serious?Damn. We can never seem to escape the ghosts of our past.

Now you want to take this thread to a whole 'nother place with your own agenda. It aint about you fam.
First of all, you didn't "already" surrender anything.
Second of all, stop retroactively apologizing like you said something you had not.
You sounded foolish and got called out on it.
The last thing we need is more immediate conspiracy without all the facts, which are still coming out.
You dudes are out here making conclusions on things you don't even fully understand. This JUST happened. Give it some time.
Alex Jones hasn't even finished recording his video yet.
A. I don't care where you're from. This dude tried to link it to 9/11 on 8/24. Not my problem if you're going keep sprouting off then get mad when you get called out on it. It sounds ridiculous to me and I said what it means to me.Why don't you back off him a little bit - He just stated a theory - I'm a NYCer - I have a theory the guy is a psychopath who just wants to watch the world burn. Who cares. It's a theory. Maybe he was a disgruntled employee. Maybe he had a personal vendetta. Maybe he wanted to go out like a monster.First of all, you didn't "already" surrender anything.

Stop being so sensitive and realize this is a message board where people can voice their opinons without the need for others to jump on their back. He even apologized.
Next time show some respect and shut your mouth.
Welcome to NY.
