A tragedy in Pittsburgh

**davidpizzica** · 08-05-2009, 07:26 AM

Last night a lone gunman walked into a LA fitness center in Pittsburgh and killed four women and wounded nine others before killing himself. The women were attending a dance/aerobics class and he turned the lights off and started shooting. A note was found and police are going over some text messages to try and find a motive. I'm asking for PT prayers for the victims and their families.

I saw that on TV and it is so sad... I have already been praying for the victims and their families.

Man really does know how to be cruel.

Prayers to all affected.

Did you hear what some of his reasons were for going berserk? He hadn't had a date since, I think, '84 and he hadn't had sex for at least 3 years. Well. There are good reasons for committing murder. Tell me, where are we safe? A health club is the last place that you would think a crime of this nature would be committed because people are health conscious and trying to get fit. Can't go to convenience stores any more w/out worrying that you'll get popped. Even church is becoming a dangerous place. So where can we go? What can we do? One of the instructors that was shot is pregnant. I haven't heard as of yet whether or not she and her baby survived. Tragic. And pointless.

May the others Rest In Peace & Heal Soon.. Prayers for all of them & familys..

Mary, the pregnant instructor is in stable condition and her unborn child is unharrmed.

The idiot's reasoning was because he got shafted by all the women he dated. I KNEW he looked familiar!!!!!!! Ugh!! He complained he hadn't had a date in 19 years!!!
