There was another mass shooting this weekend. Hopefully none of us ever get so desensitized, that this kind of thing stops affecting us.

45-year-old Jason Dalton killed six people in seven hours in Kalamazoo, Michigan on Saturday night. Why did it last seven hours? Because Dalton was an Uber driver . . . and he was picking up passengers in between the shootings. Insane.

First he killed a father and son looking at cars at a car dealership . . . 53-year-old Richard Smith and his 17-year-old son Tyler.

Then he shot and killed four women outside a Cracker Barrel . . . 62-year-old Mary Lou Nye, 60-year-old Mary Jo Nye, 74-year-old Dorothy Brown, and 68-year-old Barbara Hawthorne. He also injured two other people, including a 14-year-old girl.

Apparently the killings were completely random. He didn’t know any of the victims, and the two groups of people didn’t have anything in common with each other. Dalton also didn’t have a criminal record, and Uber says he passed their background check.

But he DIDN’T shoot any of the people he picked up for rides.

He started his rampage at 5:42 P.M. and the cops caught him at 12:40 A.M. He’s in custody now and will be facing six murder charges at his arraignment today.
