Not listening to the interview - just expect every gun grabber out there to use this shooting as an excuse to trample on even more 2nd amendment rights.
I’ve long held the belief that legal gun owner mourn the deaths and pray for the injured when a situation like this occurs.
Gun grabbers get a “thrill up their legs” and celebrate the shooting as “another example of why strong gun regulations need to be enacted”.
This is a gun grabbers dream shooting if you will, a gun grabbers trifecta even. A former Marine, mental illness and disabled - they couldn’t wish for better circumstances to force their agenda upon legal gun owners,
The last local report I have heard, on kdka-tv, was that he had been out last night ‘drinking’ with friends; perp lived w/his grandparents (no one is sure where his mother lives or why she was there). The drinking/coming in (7 am. being rported) started the ‘domestic’ situation. 2 Pgh. PD units reponded. Then all hell broke loose.
The problem is (IMO from watching the local wall to wall coverage) is that the perps ‘friends’ rushed to the scene and looked to be interviewed. They (the friends) are making the political statements (and in statements, I mean they don’t sound like ‘stunned, how could this happen, stumbling for words’ but pretty rote wording.)
The investigation will sort this out, and perps acquantances will no doubt be interviewed.
FWIW, Stanton Heights is a very nice, working class neighborhood (I grew up in Oakland section, and my late mom loved the houses out there in SH). Alot of Pgh. PD and Fire Dept. live there. This is so tragic.
