Following the fatal mass shooting at Florida State University (FSU), a video is going viral on social media of a person, most likely a student, who was sipping coffee amid the shooting, and came across a woman who lay bloodied on the ground.
However, the individual did not stop to check on the victim. Instead, they filmed her.

The FSU shooting left two people dead while at least five others were injured. The deceased were not students of the university, which is located in Tallahassee, Florida.
Police have identified 20-year-old Phoenix Ikner as the suspect. He is an FSU student and son of Jessica Ikner, Leon County sheriff's deputy.
'Morals are gone in America'
Reacting to the video, an X user said, "Morals are gone in America. This person sees wounded victims on the ground at Florida State University, yet just sips his Starbucks coffee and records the gruesome scene for Twitter clout. This clearly means the situation was safe enough for him to check on the wounded."
Another wrote, "Florida State University after a mass shooting. Starbucks was apparently more important than helping."
A third user wrote, "Mass shooting at Florida State University! Many wounded and likely dead. And this guy is filming while drinking his Chill Moka Latte."
"We truly live in a fallen world," said another, while one person called the coffee individual a "vile piece of s**t."
