Two people are reportedly dead and at least six people have been injured after a shooting occurred at a screening of Trainwreck in Lafayette, La. City Marshal Brian Pope told The Daily Advertiser that the gunman opened fire at the Grand Theatre before turning the gun on himself. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal tweeted that he is on his way to Lafayette. The Daily Advertiser reported: Katie Domingue of Carencro was at the 7 p.m. showing of "Train Wreck" with her fiance', Joshua Doggett. About 20 minutes into the movie, Domingue said, she heard a loud noise. "We heard a loud pop we thought was a firecracker," she said. She saw "an older white man" standing up and shooting down, not in her direction. "He wasn't saying anything. I didn't hear anybody screaming either," Domingue said. She heard about six shots, then she and Doggett ran to the nearest exit, leaving behind her shoes and purse.

The sheep, begging for more SWAT. Not one of my weak pathetic peers was armed in that theater? Pussies. All of them.
