A NY Gunman Has Killed At Least 12 People At An Immigration Services Center!
For reasons not yet known,a gunman committed mass murder at an immigration center in New York.It is similar to the nursing home killings in North Carolina that left 8 innocent people dead!No one really knows what the motive was for these killings.
Are multiple murders becoming commonplace in our society? I really do wonder what in the hell could drive someone to go on a murderous rampage!This is just tragic & horrendous.At least 12 people have been killed in this latest round of shootings!Here's more on this frightening story from MSNBC:
"Twelve to 13 people were killed Friday when a gunman walked into an immigrant services center and opened fire, Gov. David Paterson said. A federal law enforcement official said the gunman was found dead in the building.
"I speak for all of New York when I offer my prayers for the victims and families of this tragedy," Paterson said hours after the gunman shot several people and took dozens hostage. The gunman first blocked the back door with his car, authorities said.
Two people were seen in handcuffs as they left the building, but NBC's Pete Williams said they were not suspects and that police were simply taking extra precautions as people left the building.
At least 41 people were in the American Civic Association building at the time of the shooting, The Binghamton Press & Sun Bulletin reported.
The gunman had a high-powered rifle, Mayor Matthew Ryan told the newspaper. Law enforcement sources later told NBC News that several weapons were recovered from the shooting scene."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
Michelle Obama Is Tremendously Popular In Both London & America!
Michelle Obama gave a heartfelt speech to some very receptive British schoolgirls.They were weeping & squealing with delight when they met the First Lady.This radiant beauty has captured more than President Obama's heart.The world is becoming enthralled with Michelle Obama.Here's more on that from Shine from Yahoo:
"In other Michelle Obama news, recent polls show her U.S. favorability ratings are through the roof (76 percent of us like her, up 28 points since last summer). And, during this, her maiden voyage overseas, the world has continued its obsession with every facet of how she looks. On the trip so far, large crowds have gawked and chanted her name wherever she goes, reporters have asked exhaustive questions about her beauty regimen, and the press have compared her ceaselessly to Jackie Kennedy.
Let's face it, that's a lot to live up to.
More tidbits: She's getting better at giving. According to Time, the Obamas gave the Queen an iPod as a gift; it contained footage of her visit to the United States in 2007 (much better than the unusable DVD's they presented Gordon Brown last month). The Queen, meanwhile, gifted the Obamas "a silver framed photo of herself and her husband, as she does all visiting dignitaries," according to the same source."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
