It's happened again,

SAN BRUNO, Calif., April 3 (Reuters) - A suspect opened fire at YouTube's headquarters near San Francisco on Tuesday, sending employees scrambling into the street and at least four casualties to local hospitals.
The shooter, a woman, was "down" at the scene, NBC News reported. Reuters could not immediately confirm that report.
Lisa Kim, a spokeswoman for Stanford Health Care, said the hospital was receiving between four to five patients from the shooting incident at the offices of YouTube, which is owned by Alphabet Inc's Google.

Employees who evacuated the YouTube office and nearby buildings huddled under trees in parking lots.
A YouTube product manager, Todd Sherman, described on his Twitter feed hearing people running, first thinking it was an earthquake before he was told that a person had a gun.
"At that point every new person I saw was a potential shooter. Someone else said that the person shot out the back doors and then shot themselves," Sherman said on Twitter.
"I looked down and saw blood drips on the floor and stairs. Peaked around for threats and then we headed downstairs and out the front," Sherman said.
Google told NBC news in a written statement that it was coordinating with local authorities.
"Customers said they heard what could have been gunshots when they were on their way here," Natalie Mangiante, an employee at Big Mouth Burgers located near the YouTube building, said by phone. Mangiante said she did not see or notice anything.
Local television images showed YouTube employees walking out of the building with their hands raised.
Last month, YouTube announced it would ban content promoting the sale of guns and gun accessories as well as videos that teach how to make guns.

Reasonable gun control will not stop all shootings, but it will sure as hell keep the body count down! Isn't that at least something to fight for?!?

The harder it is to kill people, means less people die.
