Fitness club shooting - 10 minutes from my house August 05, 2009, 12:19:10 PM This is some scary stuff:http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/08/05/pennsylvania.gym.shooting/index.htmlCompared to other major cities, Pittsburgh is actually pretty small. I didn't think there were any serious violent crimes when I moved here, but this year has been turbulent.Several police officers were shot and killed this past spring in Stanton Heights, which is less than 10 minutes from where I live. I can't fathom how unstable you would have to be to go out and kill people. I'm glad I have a kick-ass alarm system at the house. Quote Selected
Fitness club shooting - 10 minutes from my house Reply #1 – August 05, 2009, 05:28:00 PM That had me shaken up a bit when I heard about. I live about 15 minutes from there and, at one point, considered joining that gym. I also know a few others who go there and I'm in the Bridgeville area often. It's a shame there's unstable people like this in the world. Quote Selected

Call the cops and tell them someone broke in so they can call the coroner and have them pick up a stiff. With the right protection it might just be them as the stiff instead of you!
