One friend, Edward Perkovic, said the gunman feared “the Obama gun ban that’s on the way” and “didn’t like our rights being infringed upon.” Another longtime friend, Aaron Vire, said he feared that President Obama was going to take away his rights, though he said he “wasn’t violently against Obama.” http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/sns-ap-pittsburgh-shooting,0,2918635.story I have the news on- live in Pittsburgh, but missed the weird friends...AP picked it up though. Sad day.
I would suggest going to KD tv. Their coverage has been more accurate (from my channel surfing). The friends are odd, and their statements are (to me) more like a prepared statement kind of thing. Please watch and lmk your thoughts.
This is heartbreaking. Not id’ing Pgh PD officers yet. Possibly at 3 pm press conf.
Per Lynn Hayes Freeland, KD, one of the deceased officers lived in the neighborhood.
Citizens across the country are discussing the 2nd Ammendment and other issues but no on is going out killing over it.
IMO There are mentally instable people and a drinking binge or whatever a night of drinking is amay not mix well with that mental instability.
Add the popular topics of our times.
Perhaps that is how some rationalize these tragedies.
The popular topics just happen to be concerns of allot of Americans.
