Amazon 7 #1 June 5, 2014 A nutter comes to Seattle.. and well soft targets if you know what I mean I wonder if its going to turn out to be another friggin idiot who thinks this is his ticket to fame.... 7 shot including shooter The victims' conditions are not known, but Seattle Fire officials say they have taken four of the wounded to Harborview Medical Center with wounds varying from minor to life threatening. Seattle police originally said they were looking for a second attacker but have since determined there is only the one suspect. The incident happened just after 3 p.m. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Amazon 7 #4 June 6, 2014 Police sources told KIRO 7 that the 25-year-old gunman was obsessed with the Columbine High School shootings and had even traveled to the Colorado site where two student gunmen killed 15 and injured another 21 fellow students in April 1999. I mean WTF... this douche is confessin this??? You have to wonder what is driving this desire for infamy by killing innocent people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BillyVance 35 #11 June 6, 2014 normiss Insanity is the issue, not guns. Mine haven't killed anything.. I fully agree. It's the mentally deficient or disturbed people that is the problem. They get their hands on anything they can find to cause mayhem, whether its a gun, or a knife, or get in a vehicle and mow people down with it... It doesn't fucking matter what weapon is used.

A good guy doesn't necessarily have to have a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun. Wayne's "the only thing..." quote was idiotic as is just about everything people like deLeon say regarding firearms when someone puts a microphone in front of them. Public figures in the gun control debate have become the polarized strawmen that should really only exist in YouTube comments, but instead people are getting behind them.

First off, you may wish to revisit your stats Second, pulling a weapon is last resort If you have other options you can chose to use them But, when you are out of options you are out of options So no, you dont really have a valid point of any kind"America will never be destroyed from the outside, if we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves."

normiss 905 #19 June 6, 2014 Good idea then. I had not heard that. Also a great alternative to carry mace in a "gun free zone" if carrying will get you in legal trouble. ETA I went and quickly scanned a few stories and all three report his friends say it was "a habit" for him to carry mace. So I ask again.His longtime roommate Ryan Salgado told The Seattle Times about the pepper spray. He said Meis regularly carries it, just in case.

kelpdiver 2 #24 June 6, 2014 SkyDekkerSome one took him down during a re-load. Seems to give some legitimacy to limiting magazine size. shotguns have a physical limitation that came into play here, not any potential legislation. But as we saw in Santa Monica, easily defeated by carrying 3 handguns and moving from scene to scene via car. But certainly in this case, pepper spray was effective against a person who choose a weapon that is highly lethal, but with low capacity and slow reloads. But that's a statistical outlier in events that are already outliers. Armed response would have been even more effective at a lower risk to the guy who bravely stepped in. My read of his lack of resistance after being tackled is that he would have surrendered if faced with a gun pointed at him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Show me where a student carrying a gun has stopped a school shooting and, of course I mean, other than the shooter committing suicide. Your stats are skewed, simply because knowing the students can carry prevents the shooting. Prove it. Show me a single instance where a guy who committed one of these mass shootings has said he picked School A vs School B because of the school's gun carry policy. MOST of these shooters know full well going into the situation they are going to end up dead. It is extremely rare any of them believe for a second they're going to get away and live to talk about it.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
