Talk:Washington Navy Yard shooting

Relevance of linking USIS to Edward Snowden?

In the wikipage it mentions that the company that performed Alexis' background check also provided a background check for Snowden.

Why is that relevant?

Snowden had already passed several background checks, as he was in military training before he went to work for the NSA (Booz Allen, whomever).

I have not read anything that suggests Snowden had anything in his background that should have triggered stricter scrutiny (or outright refusal); as opposed to Alexis, who had firearms violations in his past.

I agree with doubting relevance. Perhaps better to remove, - change add hyperlink to the WIKI page on USIS_(company). (it exists I just checked) Wfoj3 (talk) 23:04, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

2015 shooting scare

Should the shooting scare this morning be included in this article? It was pretty big for a while. 184.254.136.253 (talk) 01:14, 3 July 2015 (UTC)

Reference to Religion in Section for Professional Life

Would it be more appropriate to include this reference in the section about his earlier life, and not in the one about his professional life? FrankCarroll (talk) 17:45, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Injured section in first infobox

It says 3 of the injured were from gunfire, what were the other 5 from? Could someone please specify in the infobox?? Elizzaflanagan221 (talk) 20:57, 16 January 2024 (UTC)
