Another mass shooting this morning — this time in NYC, where gun control reigns. Please keep all the victims and their families in your thoughts and prayers.
Twitchy has full, continuing coverage here. Nanny Bloomberg will speak shortly at a press conference…live coverage here.

Update: Bloomberg acknowledges that some of the victims may have been shot by NYPD, and closes his public statement by touting NYC public safety record and invoking leftist gun control politics: “…we are not immune to gun violence.”
Bloomberg says tape shows the perpetrator pulled out a gun and tried to shoot at police. Two officers opened fire and took him down. They ID’d him after a construction worker witnessed shooter murdering ex-co-worker and followed him, then notified NYPD.
Good news: City says bystanders who were shot will all survive.
Bloomberg’s last words: “There’s an awful lot of guns out there.”
Was that necessary?
