I can not believe all these shootings this summer! Whats going on here? The lack of jobs?
July 20, James Holmes, 24, allegedly opened fire at a midnight screening of the Batman film "The Dark Knight Rises" in Aurora, Colorado, killing 12 people and wounding 58.
On Aug. 5, a gunman killed six people and critically wounded three at a Sikh temple outside Milwaukee before police shot him dead in an attack authorities treated as an act of domestic terrorism.
The Empire State Building was the world's tallest building for 40 years from its completion in 1931 until construction of the World Trade Center. Following the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, it was again the tallest building in the city.
