That carpetbagging POS will no doubt make use of this incident and will be yapping about gun control for weeks on end.

Vester Flanagan.

Perp is Lester Lee Flanagan.

It’s just a knockout-game on steroids, not a Muslim thing.

From what I just heard from the dispatcher, it sounded like “Vester”.

Yes, they think their self disclosure puts them “in control”. It’s naive. A scam artist can assemble an accurate and detailed picture of a person’s life from “selective” tweets or FB posts.

There’s a difference between fully public disclosure and disclosure to a circle of friends and acquaintances. I don’t think social media are entirely bad.

Oh, that's bad.

They don't allow guns at airports.

He's gonna get in trouble.
