Crazy Guy Starts Shooting in Metro Station Mexico City

[medicoanonimo]

Hello all, this is my first post.
Hopefully this is not a repost, if it is please excuse me.

Here is security camera footage of the Friday afternoon shooting on metro Balderas, on the north-bound platform of Line 3. At 5:14 p.m., a Metro police officer approaches a man who is scrawling graffiti on a wall. The man pulls out a gun and shoots the officer, killing him. The rush-hour crowd scatters instantly. In the confusion, a second man attempts to subdue the shooter, but he stumbles several times, and the assailant eventually fires into his head, ending his life.

Luis Felipe Hernández (who invoked God before starting to shoot at people) moves into the stalled train, still pointing his .38-caliber revolver at others. Commuters are seen being evacuated out of the station, in single-file against the walls. Minutes later, a plain-clothes police officer approaches the train, his weapon drawn. Shots are fired. Hernández is tackled.

Esteban Cervantes Barrera, the unarmed man who tried to stop Hernandez, had 5 children, Televisa said. He's being hailed as a hero, and the government says it will adopt his survivors. The officer killed has been identified as Víctor Miranda Martínez. He is being honored today at the Monumento de la Revolución. Now metal detectors will be used inside the system and 1,600 new officers are being added to the platforms. They will be armed.

There is a culture of violence in Mexico, definitely, but a crazy person randomly shooting people is not the sort of thing that happens here.
It happened last week

I think, the culture of violence, is in humanity, not just Mexico. We are a vile, and despicable breed. Practicing jealousy and ignorance, intolerance, and stupidity. Yet we think, that we are so superior, we're nothing, but tiny, insignificant, humans. We humans, are the scum of the Earth, we fight, and kill each other, over petty nonsense, we are truly lost. We don't deserve, the lives, that we're so graciously given.

I couldn't agree with you more J. Although I believe it's a necessary step for further evolution of the species. We will need to be face to face with our own extinction and come together as one species before things really start to change. You know it, and everyone out there who calls you stupid, or a hippie for saying so knows it. DESTRUCTION!!!
