At least four people are dead in a shooting at a sprawling UPS warehouse and customer service center in San Francisco, after a gunman in a UPS uniform opened fire on employees, before turning the gun on himself. A UPS employee in his uniform opened fire on employees and then "turned the gun on himself," UPS spokesman Steve Gaut said Wednesday. The shooter is one of the four who died in the shooting.

This thread isn't getting enough attention. RIP to the victims. Another tragedy and leaves sane people wondering why?

I haven't seen this talked about on the news stations. Sad. Or maybe we are getting desensitized to this violence (I live in the suburbs of a major inner city, and violence is almost the norm every morning), and unless there is a message to the violence we just don't pay any attention anymore.
RIP to the victims, and rot in hell to the killer.

Because the shooting at the republican baseball game got way more attention and both happened in the same day.
 
Another example of pent-up hostilities finally breaking out? :confused:
 
A Little Bit More Info -

San Francisco's Medical Examiner's Office late Wednesday night confirmed the identities of the victims in the deadly shooting at a UPS facility. Wayne Chan, 56, Mike Lefiti, 46, and Benson Louie, 50, were killed by a co-worker in the rampage, officials said.
A longtime UPS delivery driver, Lefiti, a resident of Hercules, made a lot of friends and quite an impression over the years. To many he was known as "Big Mike."
A makeshift memorial for Lefiti was growing at a shopping center in the Diamond Heights neighborhood where he delivered. People who knew him were shocked and saddened to hear he was one of three people killed in a shooting rampage by a fellow UPS employee.
"He loved everybody, always had a smile," said Jeanette Oliver, a shopping center manager. "So big, you just wanted to hug him."
