Well, doesn't that just screw up another theory, the one that says all mass shooters are male

Sgt Wayne Wood - "And research conducted by the New York Police Department found that only eight of 230 "active shooter" cases in the United States from 1966 to 2012 involved female attackers."

So again, is an aberration enough to disprove a theory? Obviously not *ALL* mass shooters are male - the key word 'all' is what I had ignored yesterday - but the prevailing trend does seem to support that *MOST* are.

And for the record, I've been accused of being a lot of things... but elegant has never been one of them. Lol

SSG (Join to see) don't most New Yorkers believe that the edge of the world is synonymous with the edge of Manhattan?

just how big was the NYPD's statistical population?

Sgt Wayne Wood - I can't answer that, as I'm not from New York. As far as the statistical population, it appears to cover incidents from around the world. Here's the study itself, without having to dig through the news article to find it:

I am thankful the woman believed to be the shooter is dead SSG(P) (Join to see) in what seems to be a lovers quarrel that turned into a workplace attempted homicide of the woman's 36-year-old boyfriend and her subsequent suicide, it seems.
The incident occurred at YouTube headquarters at 901 Cherry Ave, in San Bruno, California.
The unnamed "shooter was believed to be a white woman wearing a headscarf and a dark top, but police did not immediately confirm it. Witnesses told KTVU that the suspect shot her boyfriend before killing herself. According to the Los Angeles Times, authorities said the incident did not appear to be terrorism."
"Three people were transported to San Francisco General Hospital, according to a spokesman, including a 36-year-old man in critical condition, a 32-year-old woman in serious condition and a 27-year-old woman in fair condition."
Hopefully our friend SPC Margaret Higgins was unaffected by this tragic events.
