Religion of peace strikes again.

Meeny-soda white guy humor.

A former employee of a business located in a downtown Orlando building where a deadly mass shooting took place today is suspected in the attack.

Two people are dead and at least 17 were shot in the incident, which took place about noon today.

The suspect, Jason Rodriguez, 40, is believed to be driving a silver, 2002 Nissan SUV with tag number D11UXR, Orlando Police spokeswoman Sgt. Barbara Jones.

Police think he is armed and still in the area.

The shootings took place in the offices of Reynolds, Smith & Hill, a transportation consulting firm, according to Ken Jacobson, a spokesperson for the company in its Florida headquarters in Jacksonville . "We understand the shootings did take place in our office," Jacobson said. "People were shot in our offices."

He said he had limited information but the company Chief Operating Officer David Robertson and Senior Vice President of Transportation Joe Debs left from the Jacksonville offices en route to Orlando early Friday afternoon.

Although Orlando police confirmed Rodriguez, who worked at the consulting firm, e said he did not know the identity of the shooter: "We don't know who would do this."

Rodriguez was previously employed by the firm, his former supervisor said.

Bodies were found on the 12th and 8th floor of Legions Place, a 16-floor building north of Colonial Drive. Only the 12th floor has been cleared. The shooter has not been found, said Deputy Chief Mike Droege of the Orlando Fire Department.

"The building is not secure now," he said. "It's still unfolding."

Seven people were taken to Orlando Regional Medical Center. One person complaining about chest pains was taken to Florida Hospital South.

"They have not found the shooter to my knowledge," Drudge added. "They're still clearing floor by floor."

Steve Olson, spokesman for the Florida Department of Transportation, said one of the DOTs employees, a male, was in the building on official business and was shot.

He is alive and undergoing treatment. Olson would not elaborate on the injury or release the guy's name.

Office workers are still inside. They have barricaded themselves inside and have received little information from authorities on whether it's save to leave. One woman inside the building said they have been told the shooting possibly took place on the fourth or eighth floor.

"We've got everybody in one office, with the door barricaded with a chest of drawers. There are about 20 of us in here. We're scared," said one woman who is inside the building. She asked her name and that of her business not be used because she fears for her life.

"We're watching TV, trying to see what is going on, but we really don't know. We're scared. We're safe right now, but we're scared," she said.

Officers with assault rifles are looking for a suspect with blue shirt and blue jeans. Many have their weapons pointed at the parking garage.

There is a heavy police presence near Lake Ivanhoe and traffic is being diverted.

Orlando police and orange county sheriffs deputies have blocked roads near the Orlando Chamber of Commerce and the Radisson hotel. All of the businesses between Marks Road south to Colonial Drive are evacuated.

A witness has told WFTV that a man who previously worked in the building walked inside and opened fire.

Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer has postponed a trip to see his son out of town and is monitoring the situation from City Hall, spokeswoman Heather Allebaugh said. Dyer is waiting for an update from police, she said.

Police Chief confirms only 6 victims. No deaths are confirmed by OPD, at this time.

Tis' the fucking season.

Stress and unemployment is up and any psycho can go buy a weapon.

Gun Control would have prevented that army base shooting.

Violence begets violence.

You train people to kill they are going to kill.



Easy access to weapons prevents senseless deaths.

Suspect has been arrested.

Please. If anything letting people carry on base would have helped. Same with the Orlando case. Being as it happened in Florida, I'd be interested in how many employees in that building carried but had to leave their firearm in their vehicle or at home.

logo strikes again

no, no, no! they are born this way!

:spaz:

so what training did this clown get?

meds, freako....meds.

:lol:

He received small arms and close quarters combat training at Ft. Hood in preparation for his upcoming deployment, per media reports.

the shooter in Orlando received that training?!?!?

Crazy jihadists also like to kill people. A perfect storm at Ft. Hood.

Mah B!

Too many 'whacko shoots people' threads.

same old same old......unrestrained individualism, consumerism, social fracture, dunbar's number, nature deficit disorder, mental illness, native american curse, karma, ennui, and untenable lifestyles. for starters.

take you're fucking pick.

Major Malik Nadal Hasan was trained to help returning soldiers deal with emotional and mental trauma. All reports indicate the opposite to be true.

These people don't kill because they're trained to kill. They kill because their thought process is fucked up.

These people are trained to fight in boot camp. It is a culture of violence.

You're right. Let's talk about culture.

maybe we should train them to hug, that will help.....


but you are right, this only happens in america...

I called this one correctly. :yup:

Yes, that is the point of having a military, dipshit. :lol:

They are trained to kill. Some of them, however, apparently think that their religion is more important than their country. That seems to be the case with Hasan.
