Probably someone who never gets their packages delivered from FedEx.
That's all I hear about on Facebook anymore, missing FedEx packages.
Actually, as in most cases of shootings at these businesses, it was probably an employee who felt undervalued.

Oh my goodness. That's horrible. I just can't imagine the pain, emotional distress or anger someone has to be feeling to actually act on shooting so many people. But, then again, the person could just be pure evil. Or, is it something else.
Irregardless, it's a tragic event. Prayers for the family of the lost and I wish a speedy recovery to those who are wounded.

It is a tragic event, however I believe the spot light has been recently shifted to this since January. And that's all the more I'm going to say on it. As any further than that should be redirected to the political threads.
None the less, hate to hear it as it doesn't justify what he done. I couldn't imagine how I would feel if something that like happened to my family.

I was on the FBI's page looking at some stats about mass shootings recently (due to an issue my daughter told me about), and I was surprised to see the trends. The most mass shootings occurred in 2019. In 2020 they dropped significantly. I have to presume it was due to the lockdown and people not being at their office/work location...but 2021 was trending up again.

Greg, I opened the link you posted and this is what was at the very top of the report.
"A gunman opened fire at a FedEx facility where he once worked and then killed himself. His mother told the police a year ago that she feared he would commit “suicide by cop.”
Here is the root of all shootings. Friends, family know these individuals are off their rockers and need help....but they do nothing until it's to late. When someone says something like the comment this lady made they should be held somewhat responsible!

“Officials said the gunman, a 19-year-old, was a former employee of the company whose mother had warned law enforcement officials last year that he might try to attempt “suicide by cop.” An F.B.I. special agent confirmed that the gunman had been interviewed by federal agents in April 2020, and that he was put on an “immediate detention mental health temporary hold.”
He was not charged with a crime, and the agent said that a shotgun was not returned to him.”

Man, if people actually started carrying about all of these FBi failures, they might start being embarrassed.

Man, if people actually started carrying about all of these FBi failures, they might start being embarrassed. It's not the Federal Bureau of Investigation's job to determine if a person is mentally ill, it's their job to investigate "federal Crimes". This individual did not violate any Federal, State or local laws when he was interviewed. Law Enforcement are not baby sitters.

This individual did not violate and Federal, State or local laws when he was interviewed. Law Enforcement are not baby sitters. You're correct, yet somehow they've been involved in nearly every high profile mass shooting over the past 5 years or so as having investigated and cleared a person that goes on to kill multiple people.

UPDATE-During Thursday’s incident, the suspect, Brandon Hole, was witnessed using assault rifles in the assault. ATF conducted a trace on the two weapons. IMPD learned that Brandon Hole purchased the rifles legally in July and September of 2020.

Once again he was a known problem. Those laws work so well don’t they April 2020 he had a shotgun taken away. I read an article that said he purchased 2 rifles in 2020. 1) If they were purchased after they took the shotgun away, how did the purchase go through, and if they were purchased before they took the shotgun, why didn't they take the rifles too?

What happened to Indiana's RED FLAG law? The FBI put immediate detention mental health temporary hold.” Why weren't local LEO notified or the Mother advised to get RED FLAG in this case? It seems the Mother did the right thing she just called the wrong agency.
