Looks like the police may have shot quite a few of the public while taking down the gunman.

Indeed. I've just seen a report that suggests the gunman shot one person - the person he'd gone there intending to shoot - and the police shot nine innocent bystanders trying to take him out.

You see that in movies a lot and assume that the real yank police know that they would most likely kill many bystanders. What an odd society they are.

American gun crimes are that common I'm surprised they even make the news these days.
