Man wounded in Kansas bar shooting speaks at vigil

Source: MSN/Associated Press

OLATHE, Kan. — One of three men shot at a bar in suburban Kansas City spoke at a weekend vigil, saying "I wish it was a dream."

The Kansas City Star reported (http://bit.ly/2mkJVIS) Alok Madasani, 32, told a crowd of hundreds at the Ball Conference Center in Olathe, Kansas, on Sunday that "what happened that night was a senseless crime and that took away my best friend."

Madasani's friend and co-worker, Srinivas Kuchibhotla, 32, was killed in Wednesday night's shooting at Austins Bar and Grill in Olathe. Another patron, Ian Grillot, 24, also was wounded in the shooting.

"The main reason why I am here is that's what my best friend, Srinivas, would have done," Madasani said. "He would have been here for me."

which was released by alcohol. How would someone have become so angry, at a person he didn't know at all, in today's modern America? Anyone think the media had anything to do with it? Maybe some network that plants and cultivates anger in people who listen to or view that network? What network would that be? Anyone ever see a person made irrationally angry by a network like that? I have. So have you. Or, another alternative, you lead by example.
