LAX Shooting, Garden State NJ Shooting, Denver School Gunmen.
Why?
Two mass shooting incidents, and one that could have been that had students been in the school at the time, leave one question: why is this happening?
At LAX, a 23-year-old man named Paul Ciancia went to target TSA Agents and in the process wounded three, and killed George Hernandez, a three-year veteran TSA agent who lived in Los Angeles.
In @RabbiShmuley. Here are some of his Twitter tweets:
Garden State New Jersey, a gunman named Richard Shoop, first thought to be with five other gunmen, acted alone. Fortunately, Mr. Shoop killed no one, but the reports are that he was upset about something and "wasn't himself" over the past few days.
So, at 9:20 pm, as the stores at the Garden State NJ Mall were closing, Shoop put on body armor, armed himself with military-style weapons, and came out blasting security cameras in the mall. Eventually, at 3:20 am, Shoop was found dead, and the report was he killed himself. Rabbi Shmuley, the so-called 'most famous Rabbi in America' was at the mall last night, and took to Facebook and Twitter to report what was going on
Shooter in the garden state mall NJ. We were there. Terrifying and not yet over. Pray for the people inside

Took about 15 min for us to see any police activity in mall. Have no idea if they have apprehended shooter. Still have people inside. Pray!

We're outside the mall awaiting people we know to emerge. Please pray for the people inside. Gunman not apprehended
— Rabbi Shmuley (@RabbiShmuley) November 5, 2013
Police everywhere. Why can they not find the gunman? I have 3 kids with me. We're outside awaiting word of the people we know inside.
