According to the photo in the article he is quite black.

Evidently he reloaded at least twice. i.e., plenty of time for someone who was carrying to at least disrupt the shooting.

Perish the thought.

Besides, the police were there very quickly, with many rolls of quick-dispensing crime scene tape.

i saw an article on yahoo when this broke yesterday and almost all of the early comments were things like...

“OMG, we have to repeal the 2nd amendment now!”

“more christian bigots on killing sprees!”

“americans doing what americans do best!”

it was so infuriating i had to stop reading. there is a consistent and organized effort online to push these stories as commonplace and something that the government simply must do something about. i’ve long suspected that leftwing organizations under the Soros umbrella have rallied and organized leftwingers to overwhelm the internet with leftwing comments on every relevant news story. this is an area that the right has neglected to get involved in. it does sway people like Goebbels said (and which the leftwingers have taken to heart), “tell a big enough lie often enough and people will believe it”.

the fact that the shooter was black means that this story will now disappear because it doesn’t fit their narrative.

well, the important thing is that all of the police got home safe that night. that's really the only thing that matters.

"PROHIBITED PERSON" under the Gun Control Act of 1968. Could not legally buy a gun from an FFL, nor pass a background check. Likely bought stolen guns.

BUT WE NEED MORE LAWS! /sarc

When the shooter is dead, there is not much left to the story.

However, the shooters from the Kalamazoo, Colorado Springs and Charleston shootings are still alive and have court cases pending. Those court cases will keep those stories alive.

“Cedric Larry Ford” is also referred to as Cedric Spain on the protective order.

“he was arrested for violating probation stemming from burglary and grand theft charges. He pleaded no contest in the cases, the records say.

Ford also had arrests dating back to 1996 in Miami-Dade County, including burglary, concealed firearms and battery charges. The disposition of those cases was not clear.”

All those crimes and yet he had no trouble getting a gun.

One of many rat darlings who have been in and out of jail neverdoing the sentenced time and is able to get a gun and kill people. Product of a failed rat utopia

I’m guessing he got the gun bypassing all of the government’s background checks proving once again those don’t work for the bad guys.

So I won’t expect to have Yahoo or AOL Commie News greet me with his picture like they do with a white shooter.

Yep. And somehow, it's all our (peaceable gun owners') fault.

So, he had a criminal record back to 1996 (20 yr ago) and he was 38, so as soon as he turned 18, he was in trouble. I’d venture a guess there are some sealed juvie records too.

You knew when it took them about 24 hours to release the name that he was a member of a protected class.

How did a felon get a firearm? We need another law for him to break!
