the only thing that divides our border is a 3 foot ditch. It does kinda hit home considering this was an after party after an event, which happens as a regular occurance in vancouver as well.... so ya there is reason to be shocked.... kind of like the case last year where the national guard beat the shit out of the kids at that outdoor event in utah....

Oh man, that is tragic news. I'm kinda shocked/disturbed by that.
Just that one guy caused such a mess... killed six people, hurt their families, scared everyone around, and then killed himself. What was going on in his mind - how could he be so pissed off to commit such a crime? Fuck.

I think Dabler's comment was in response for C_Squared's American comment.
According to the news... The killer's intention was to kill every single person at that house party... he was going back to his truck for another gun when confronted by an officer in the front lawn who told him to drop his weapon... tha's when he took his own life.

^^^ "ZOMBIE RAVE" is the term used to describe the party in that news article.
SEATTLE -- The private party following a "zombie rave" was winding down when a man walked out, returned to the house wearing bandoliers of shotgun shells and opened fire on the young crowd, police said. Six people were killed and another was critically injured as he fired dozens of rounds, police said. Outside, he fatally shot himself when confronted by police. Police said it appeared to be the city's worst mass killing since 1983's Wah Mee massacre, when 13 died in an attack at a gambling club. "It's one of the largest crime scenes the city has ever had," Police Chief Gil Kerlikowske said. The victims — many with their faces painted and hair dyed for the zombie-themed rave — were in their late teens and early 20s, police said. None had been identified publicly. Police said they didn't know the motive. Officers found three dead in the living room, one at the front door and another on the porch steps. One victim died at Harborview Medical Center, where another was in extremely critical condition and the third was stable, the nursing supervisor said. About 20 people had gathered at the two-story rental house after a Friday night rave called "Better Off Undead" in the Capitol Hill neighborhood. Some of the guests were "made up to look as if they were dead," Kerlikowske said. The shooter, described as a local man in his late 20s and dressed in black, left around 7 a.m. Saturday, police said. He went to his black Dodge pickup truck and turned around. As the gunman walked the half block back to the house, he spray painted the word "NOW" in orange twice on the sidewalk and once on the steps of a neighbor's home, police said. He forced his way back inside the house and started shooting, police said. Unable to enter an upstairs bathroom where a young couple were hiding, he fired through the door before leaving. They were unharmed. An officer in the neighborhood heard the shots and arrived to find a victim staggering out of the house with a gunshot wound, Kerlikowske said. The officer confronted the man with a shotgun but got no further than "Drop your ..." before the man put the barrel in his mouth and pulled the trigger, the chief said. The shooter also had a handgun, police said, but primarily used the 12-gauge pistol-grip shotgun. In his truck, police found an assault rife and multiple "banana clips" carrying 30 bullets each. Police said they did not know if drugs or alcohol were a factor, though Kerlikowske said marijuana and alcohol were found in the house. Neighbor Cesar Clemente, 25, said he called 911 when he heard the shots. He looked outside to see people fleeing, and two people huddling in the bushes. He called to them. A man made it to his front entryway, shot in the arm and the abdomen. The other collapsed in the bushes. Clemente asked the man what happened. He said only, "I've been peppered." Medics quickly took him away, leaving behind a few shotgun pellets on the floor. Nancie Thorne told The Seattle Times that her 15-year-old daughter, Suzanne, was in the house when the man opened fire. She hadn't heard if her daughter survived. "It's the worst phone call a mom can get," Thorne said, crying. "She shouldn't have gone to the rave. I've never approved of those things. ... I just hope to God she's alive. And if she is, she's grounded for life." Hospital officials said the girl was not there.
