:( ohno: It's a doggone shame that we can't live our daily lives without the fear of getting shot to death.

it's crazy on the news right now since I live by there! Well, I live in Milwaukee which is by Brookfield. How did you find out about this so fast, Janice? I didn't think it would be in the national news so quickly (well, that site isn't) or do you live near the area?

Another shooting? This is crazy. :(

I saw it on another message board site, FreeRepublic.com

For some reason, the minute stories break, they get posted there.

It was on internet messageboards before the media even reported it.

wow, news sure travels fast on the internet. I think it would be on CNN or other networks right now except they're talking about the Nichols guy being found instead.

I see about 10 of these bad news threads a day...why?

And the world has always been nuts...we just have reporters now.

Why? Because it's a Chit Chat board. There's a lot of discussion about everything, both good and bad.

And the world has gotten crazier over the years.

I just think it's kind of depressing to see so many of them, though. Eh...

FOX News did a quick segment on the hotel shootings. It would probably get more play if the Nichol's shootings hadn't happened.

Man Kills 7, Self at Wis. Church Service

BROOKFIELD, Wis. (AP) -

A gunman opened fire Saturday at a church service being held at a hotel, killing seven people before taking his own life, authorities said.

Officers found four people and the gunman dead when they arrived about 1 p.m. at the Sheraton hotel. Three others died later at a hospital, said Daniel Tushaus, chief of the Brookfield Police Department.

"There is nobody else being sought at this time as a suspect," he said.

The victims were all in the same room at the hotel, Tushaus said. The suspect, a man of about 45 who was armed with a handgun, was affiliated with the church, which had been meeting at the hotel every Saturday morning for four or five years.

Tushaus did not identify the victims but gave approximate ages. Two boys ages 15 and 17, a 72-year-old man and a 55-year-old woman died at the hotel. Three men ranging in age from 44 to 58 died later at a hospital.

Four other people were hospitalized in serious condition.

Some hotel guests remained locked in their rooms after police surrounded the building and would not allow anyone to enter or leave.

Karen Suick, 48, said she arrived at the hotel Friday night with 15 players and parents for a hockey tournament.

"One of our hockey dad's two daughters are still in there," she said. "They called his cell phone. They were OK, but they were told to go back to their room. So that's what they did."

At least two church groups were holding meetings in the hotel at the time of the shootings, police said. Brookfield is a western suburb of Milwaukee.

Wow, there's been shootings going on all week. That's so sad...it happened at a church service too.

It was actually a church MEETING. AHHHHH, I'm SICK of this being on the news all day long. I know they want to inform people, but they're basically repeating the same stuff over and over again .

Right now they're interviewing a witness and the media will NOT leave her alone. They keep asking "can you tell us the gunman's name?" and she won't answer. Leave her alone already!

So far 8 have been confirmed dead. One of the victims at the hospital that was shot is a 10 year old girl and they're still trying to keep her alive. :(

I know. Geraldo, or should I say Whore-aldo Rivera, is relentless. He's been on FOX all day interviewing the world. I said to my husband that he'll end up interviewing the gunman Nichol's kindergarten teacher.

The world is going nuts.


Tell me about it, we had a shooter hiding out around our house ( still no word on if he has been caught ) He shot and killed a guy the next street over, then fled into our neighborhood! Needless to say, I ain't goin outside!
