The Walmart manager who shot up an employee meeting on Tuesday evening bought the semi-automatic pistol he used legally that same day. He also left a “death note” manifesto which police have now released. The 31-year-old killer claims Satan led him to commit the terrible act.
Of course, Joe Biden’s followed the mass casualty event in Virginia with some thoughts on “gun violence.” Biden’s Thanksgiving message? The Commander in Chief declared that semi-auto firearms have “no social redeeming value.”
Are Biden’s handlers completely tone-deaf or do they have no ability any more to control what slips out of his mouth? Those same semi-auto firearms with “no social redeeming value” protect Joe Biden and his family.
More on the purchase from the New York Times via MSN:
The Walmart supervisor who shot and killed six of his co-workers at a store in Chesapeake, Va., late on Tuesday purchased a pistol only hours before the massacre and left a note on his phone, in which he described how he planned to target some colleagues and spare others, according to new details released by the Chesapeake police on Friday.
As friends and relatives of the victims mourned, with a candlelight vigil planned by the city on Monday, the new details provided the first indication of what led to the eruption of workplace violence, which took place as members of what has been described as a close-knit overnight team met in a Walmart break room.
The police said an analysis of a phone belonging to the gunman, identified as Andre Bing, 31, turned up the message, in which he said employees at the store had mocked him and compared him to a serial killer. In what he called a “death note,” the gunman said he would not kill an employee who had cancer because his mother had died from the disease.
The City of Chesapeake released the manifesto note:

There were several inquiries about anything recovered from the search warrant at the suspect’s house. A box of ammunition was found and various items in reference to the 9mm handgun (box, receipt, other paperwork). (3/3)

Reading the note, it becomes clear that the killer harbored a lot of anger towards his peers and believed they were out to get him. The killer likely had mental issues as well, as he also wrote that he had decoded their subtle “code speech.”
Virginia has a fairly good concealed carry law. However, as employees of Walmart, the killer’s victims were prohibited by company policy from carrying guns at work. In other words, the killer’s fellow employees were nothing but fish in a barrel when the 31-year-old walked into that meeting and started shooting.
