RENO, Nev. – A gunman bought ammunition at a Walmart in Nevada shortly before opening fire on three co-workers in the same store, authorities said Monday.

Suspect John Dennis Gillane purchased the handgun ammunition in the sporting goods department about an hour before three managers were shot on Friday, police said.

The attacker was armed with two handguns during the videotaped attack but only a semi-automatic pistol was fired, police Lt. Mohammad Rafaqat said. The .44-magnum revolver for which the ammunition was bought was not fired, Rafaqat added.

He bought gas to get to the killings at BP.

The jeans that he wore were Levi’s which obviously suggests a Jewish conspiracy. /s

Further investigation may reveal that the perp’s underwear and socks were purchased at Walmart also.

If we had a law requiring ammo registration, this probably wouldn’t have happened.

Great. Some nimrod working at WalMart will suggest that they need to stop selling ammo at Walmart and a good source of cheap ammo will dry up...

We have ammo registration in NJ(seriously). Gang bangers use only unregistered ammo.

I respectfully disagree. China Mart isn't cheaper than some of the online sources like Midway USA or Sportman's Guide and the supplies are far less plentiful at Wally World.

—there are already Walmarts that don’t sell firearms or ammo due to local political pressure—

His shoes were made in China. If only we would stop free trade these senseless killings could be stopped.

What’s even more alarming is that his tires with filled with the very kind of air that’s just, you know, floating around out there. Anybody, literally anyone can just walk up to the atmosphere and take that air. Laws have to be passed to control this, now.
