Title: Another Mass Shooting
Post by T And T Garage on 11/08/18 at 07:06:14

So... how are those hopes and prayers working out, huh?

http://www.yahoo.com/news/authorities-multiple-injuries-shooting-california-081908764.html

So f-ing sick of seeing this.

The killer was identified as Ian David Long, a 28-year-old former Marine.

Good guy with a gun,.. bad guy with a gun.
How do you distinguish them?...

Usually the guy killing people for no reason is the bad guy.
When the bad guy is the only one who has a gun, good guys are ineffective.
This guy, a marine, apparently had been there and knew who the security personnel were, and took them out first.
Why did he do that?
Why go kill people and then yourself?
If you're gonna kill yourself, start with That.
He had a magazine that was illegal.

Post by Serowbot on 11/08/18 at 08:08:39

So, where do you go to get an illegal magazine?
Jail that person,.. charge them with murder.
Seller and manufacturer both.
Shut them down.

Title: Re: Another Mass Shooting
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 11/08/18 at 08:20:23

He could have had the magazine Before it was made illegal
In California.
In other places
It's Not illegal.
Don't see how it would have mattered.
Slide locks back
Push the button
Magazine falls away
Slap in another
Push a button
Slide slams shut
Pull trigger

About two seconds

Title: Re: Another Mass Shooting
Post by Serowbot on 11/08/18 at 08:25:54

Two seconds is time enough to throw chair, smash a bottle, do something like your life depends on it.
How many dead wish they had those two seconds...

Title: Re: Another Mass Shooting
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 11/08/18 at 08:31:41

You're correct.
But
How many people who are sucking linoleum even Know the guy is empty?
How many people who are trying to get away from danger Can grab something, turn around, and attack? It's been done, but not more than once in my memory.
Seems like a guy at a Waffle House disarmed a gunman while he was trying to reload.
Being the only one who has a gun seems to be quite an advantage.
I WOnder what a possible solution could be...
Hmmm...

It's illegal, period.
They were not grandfathered in.
Turn them in or get rid of them.
So they went to the local gangbanger.

Again, he may have had it Before it was illegal. I'm not concerned about it beyond
Answering the question.
Arrest his deadass.

That it was not grandfathered in doesn't matter.
He was going to murder people.
That's kinda illegal.
How he came to possess the magazine was the question.
I offered a reasonable answer as to how he May have done that.
Do I need to type out every other reasonable possibility?
Who's shocked that a marine wouldn't turn in a magazine that was legal yesterday but isn't today?
Who would?

Title: Re: Another Mass Shooting
Post by Serowbot on 11/08/18 at 08:51:07

More guns ain't gonna' fix it.
The cop had a gun,.. he's dead.  He was trained, he was a good guy, he knew the shooter was there.  He's still dead.
And the shooter eventually shot himself... the good guy didn't get him.

This won't fix until we face facts.

Title: Re: Another Mass Shooting
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 11/08/18 at 09:04:05

This won't fix until we face facts.

Yeah, you're right.
One good guy with a gun wasn't enough.
Bad guys win gunfights sometimes.
Seatbelts and helmets don't always save lives.
Should we declare them loser ideas?
The only answer to a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.
Tell me, would you be wishing for a gun in your hand in a situation like that?
If
More Guns
ISN'T the answer
Why call the cops? Isn't that Exactly what they bring?

Title: Re: Another Mass Shooting
Post by WebsterMark on 11/08/18 at 09:19:07

Apparently, the cops had visited this guy before. A mental health group decided not to submit him to further evaluation.

The magazine was illegal in California, but then again, so is murder.

We can keep going with our usual conversation we have on here after one of these shootings or we can not.

There are 300 million + guns in the US so you can't confiscate all of them. There are people with basements full of ammo so you can't confiscate the ammo. It takes a couple minutes to modify a magazine so you can't confiscate all of those. And ultimately, 99.99999% of guns are never used in a crime so there's that.

The one denominator is mental health. Stop with the gun talk. That will get no results. Guns are all around us. That toothpaste is out of the tube and it ain't going back in. California made a big deal about their magazine law and as we see, it did nothing.

Start looking at the people, not the weapon. Stop demonizing everyone who owns a gun. Stop using the NRA as a convenient target. The NRA is made up of people, it's me, it might be you, I don't know. The NRA is a organization of people, it's not an independent monster hiding in the dark.  


Title: Re: Another Mass Shooting
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 11/08/18 at 09:20:12

One of those killed was sheriff's Sgt. Ron Helus, who was cut down when he tried to enter the club with Highway Patrol officers responding to the gunfire.

A gunman in a crowded bar has a distinct advantage over people who are coming in.
The cop wasn't IN the bar when the shooting started.
The cop wasn't blended into the crowd. The cop had a target on his chest.
Maybe you don't understand the distinction between
Good Guys with a gun
And
Cops.
Please tell me you won't be needing it spelled out,
Because I have no intention of typing it out.

Funny how this is only mentioned today....

http://www.yahoo.com/sports/woman-fires-shots-family-dispute-watching-georgia-kentucky-202104900.html

Seems the batsh!t crazies aren't making the headlines as much anymore.

If only there was some "good guy" with a gun in this situation, huh?

A Georgia woman was arrested when she allegedly opened fire on her family Saturday after they would not change the channel from the Georgia Bulldogs’ football game against the Kentucky Wildcats.

Seems like a perfectly good reason to shoot someone....

I'm sorry for all those who died, in the CA shooting , and of course their families!  but what of the Marine, He was a vet who served in that desert sh!t hole ,came back with his head on backward ,like so many others ,what help did he receive? He was not even referred to a mental hospital ,and what the VA does for vets is a joke! I know vets that have waited almost two years for an operation . the government uses these young men up then spits them out. sink or swim, some sink. This type of thing will continue until someone takes proper responsibility .

All the outrage over idiots and guns, so focused on the destruction..
And yet, the same people are unable to see the damage to people the idiots who vote democrat cause.

Enough of the Goddammed thoughts a prayers.

Do something!!  That's not just me, that's a mom whos son survived the Vegas shooting but was killed in Thousand Oaks and the f-ing shooter himself!

http://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/mom-thousand-oaks-shooting-victim-024622580.html

http://www.cnn.com/2018/11/08/us/thousand-oaks-gunman/index.html

Authorities have identified a Facebook post believed to have been made by the shooter around the time of the attack, according to a law enforcement official familiar with the ongoing investigation.
In it, the writer says: "I hope people call me insane... (laughing emojis).. wouldn't that just be a big ball of irony? Yeah.. I'm insane, but the only thing you people do after these shootings is 'hopes and prayers'.. or 'keep you in my thoughts'... every time... and wonder why these keep happening..."

Crazy people get guns.
Crazy people kill people.
People should be able to defend themselves from crazy people.
Solution?
More guns.

One adult and two children shot dead in a park very near me yesterday.
Body count too low, didn't even make national news.

Willing to bet this was a gang bangers shooting at each other. You might say that doesn't matter, but it does matter.

 I can't imagine even without mass shootings that 3 people shot would make national news.

Gunfight at the OK Corral... 3 dead.
Not just news,.. but historic.

St Valentines Day massacre. 7 dead.
Gang shooting.
Not just news,... but historic.

What was once historic, is no longer even newsworthy.
We can change the name to the Mild Mild West...

Title: Re: Another Mass Shooting
Post by justin_o_guy2 on 11/10/18 at 13:33:48

That you're pointing to
How many people died
And calling it
Historic
Tells what you believe.
What you're failing to consider are the
Stories
That those events were based on.

That is so completely true !!!!!!!.

And Bot, you of all people, living so close, should know the, YEARS, of history and confrontations in the Tombstone AZ area, that lead up to the OK Corral.

So why did you choose to ignore it ?
THE reason, the OK Corral, is part of History,
IS THE  HISTORY, of that place and time.

It is the exact same, as the, 'Mob', dealings, leading up to the St. Valentines Day massacre.
AND, the controversy of exactaly what and why, it happened.
