He's on lockdown in his building across the river from the scene.

OK. No Ratz killed or injured. Threat alert reduced from Critical to Cheese. :tea:

"Going Naval" will be a meme.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

They are being quite specific in that they are looking for two more men, as well as the dead one.
One black man, one white.

If that's the case, it has to be a terrorist attack, whether foreign or domestic isn't clear.
They seem to be treating it as a fact, not a rumour.

It's a real mystery. You don't get three disgruntled ex-employees all at once. What's the odds of that?

Depends on where you work, I'd imagine. I've worked places where the entire fucking staff were disgruntled.

It's starting to look now like it was just a lone shooter.
They were originally looking for two more men, now it's gone down to one, and last news, they were a bit non comittal about that. I get the impression that they are expecting to rule other shooters out, in the end.

Probably just one disgruntled twat.

It probably was just one guy. Still, by the time I left work (after my building was no longer on lockdown) the security force were manning the gate decked out in body armor and shotguns. My office is a mile or two across the river from the Navy Yard, and also a Navy installation.
