Quick Note

 As some have heard on the news, there was a mass shooting here in downtown Austin in the early morning, in which three people died and a number of others are injured. It took place at a popular bar on West Sixth Street. The FBI says there are indicators of terrorism, and it does seem to have been politically motivated in a very general sense. The shooter (who is one of the three who died) currently appears from the news to have been a Senegalese man who lives in the area, acting on his own in response to the current American bombing of Iran. Beyond that there's not much known at the present.
