I just found this documentary

Every time I hear of a shooting inside a public establishment, (restaurants, bars, malls, movie theaters), I instantly remember this incident. There was a fatal shooting a few days ago at a bar and grill that me and my family attend on occasion. As I was talking with my daughter about it, I began remembering the McDonald's massacre. I brought it up and she asked me if there was a doc on it. I found this, made in 2016. I grew up in SoCal, I was 17 when it happened. Images of the boys laying by their bikes, innocent victims who by chance, became the first victims before the shooter went inside and shot and killed families, children, babies. It was so horrible and shocking because I'd never seen anything like that. Those tragedies effect you and you never forget it.

Now, as far a the doc, it had good interviews of the survivors. It was very sad. There are images shown of the victims which are graphic so viewers beware. I did not like how the interviewer was so judgmental and aggressive with law enforcement. Times were different back then, nothing like that had ever taken place before, there was no knowledge, experience or protocols for events like this. It was tragedy. It's easily to pick apart what could have been done or how if should have been handled. If this was to happen now, I'm sure it would be different, but that's because law enforcement learns from tragedies like this. Eventually a sniper did take the shot and killed the shooter. Yes it was 1 hour an 17 minutes later, but it was done. Considering the standoffs we've seen since then that lasted hours and days, that sniper did take that chance and ended the hostage situation and more murders. Sadly, many already lost their lives. It was just the most horrible day and I still feel so much sadness for those people. I imagine their fear and terror as they tried to shield their children, as they watched others die horrible deaths. I'll always remember that CA summer day.
