Another Gun Without A Brain

The shooting at a ball park in Alexandria, VA this morning.
Five people hit, including a Congressman and a few staffers,
not to mention two law enforcement officers, who fired back
despite their wounds. The shooter shot dead by police.

Watch how quickly this overshadows everything else ....
for now, and then the gun-control debate will resurface......again.

The renewed gun control debate will push this off the front page. A Democrat doing exactly as the Democrat leadership has been suggesting does not fit the media's narrative.

"When guns are outlawed only disgruntled Bernie Sanders supporters will have guns."

Been waiting for years to put the shoe on the other foot.

I think we may be witnessing the early death throes of the Democrat Party.

If we don't learn from this insane act the following will happen:

There will be a 48 hour calm.

Then the Trump hating will start up again.

I'm waiting for the left to blame Trump for inciting this. Like Bush it's always Trump's fault.

It won't take that long. Trump Hating is a very unhealthy pathology and will reassert itself within the next few hours. Even on this forum.

The insanity of the radical left will not be cured no matter how egregious the tragedy.

Though it is a nice thought, I think that you may be a bit optimistic. The down-side is that what could fill the void left by it could be even worse.

My first thought, bearing in mind the scheduled hearing involving the HPA, was to wonder if the guy used a suppressor.

Heard a radio talk show host make a comment - between Kathy Giffen beheading Trump, and the latest play assassinating Trump ... the democrats are mentally "training" their supporters to actually assassinate Trump....

Disgusting, but not shocking.

The shooter shot dead by police.

Excellent final result for a coward, thug, domestic terrorist!

Agree. And that is because Liberals think they can convince people that the acts of a living, breathing, coward, domestic terrorist is the fault of an inanimate object called a gun!

The shooter's residence is in Illinois, one of only two states (other is MA) where a purchase permit and an owner's license is required for both handguns and long guns. (Wash. DC is the same; NY requires owner's permit for handguns.) Wonder where the guy acquired his rifle.

Eye witnesses said it was a Kalashnikova-47 which can be bought as a kit online.

Saw an article which said it was an older-design semi-auto that has lines similar to the AK and eats the same 7.62x39mm ammo, the weapon initially of Russian manufacture but copied by many other nations.

Oh yes, my son bought several parts from several sites and made both an AK and an AR15.

Eye witnesses are usually idiots.

It was an SKS. Russian design. Right after WWII. Replaced by the Kalashnikov AK-47 in 1954.

Counting Chinese and Eastern Block nations along with Russian manufacture, over 15 million were made, many of which are still available.

This is demonic, plain and simple.

No it can not. No firearm can be bought online without being delivered to a physical FFL dealer for in person transfer.
