Chattanooga (United States) (AFP) - The gunman who carried out the deadly attacks on two US military centers in Tennessee had at least two rifles and one handgun, some of which were purchased legally, the FBI said Friday.

Mohammad Youssuf Abdulazeez, 24, killed four Marines and injured three other people on Thursday before he died in a shootout with police in Chattanooga.

"He did have at least two long guns, which would be considered rifles or shotguns. And he did have one handgun, that we're aware of," said FBI special agent Ed Reinhold.

Heard on WNIR Kent/Akron that he tried to buy here, but was turned down. He worked for 10 days at the Perry Nuclear Plant but was let go when he couldn’t pass security background checks. We may have really lucked out up here! No meltdown!

“He worked for 10 days at the Perry Nuclear Plant but was let go when he couldn’t pass security background checks.”

Gee. Wonder if that had anything to do with his Dad being on a Terrorist Watch List?

Deport! Deport! Deport Them All! Deport their families! Deport their pets!

NOW! Get out! GET OUT!

Maybe the FBI should outsource its firearm background check program to the Perry Nuclear Plant Security Department!

If he’d shot up someplace where he actually worked, it would have been considered merely ‘workplace violence’ and not Sudden Jihad Syndrome.

After all, government are responsible to protecting all,

If the government can't protect the Marines, how can we expect it to protect us?

I think “Equal Protection” means the government must buy guns for non-gun-owners. They must be MADE equal.

Good point. Give Marines weapons and they’ll protect themselves. What the leftist elites are deathly afraid of is that armed Marines might someday come for them.

If it comes to that, they'd better hope the Marines get there before the civilians do.

What is needed is for Iman Obummer to issue a fatwa decreeing no virgins for you if you kill someone who cannot kill you.
