So an incident happened at a metro line where a police officer was killed. Pretty much is it.
Last time I was in DC, 2013, wife and I were eating lunch at a restaurant just down the street from the Capitol One Arena.
A beverage delivery truck pulls up across the street and suddenly 20 or so “youts” rush in and strip the thing clean. By the time the cops arrived, they were all gone. Waiter tells me they coordinate on their Obamaphones.
I had climate change violence on my bingo card.
‘Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here, This is the War Room’
Another INSURRECTION!
The story was written in haste. The AP editors are still trying out how to work an AR-15-carrying White Supremacist into it.
Not likely soldiers. The powers that be don’t like for us (military types) to be armed at work. A few years ago I had to trudge back to my car in the C lot (through the tunnel, better than a quarter mile) to put my Boker folder back in the car. Can’t have a colonel armed with a knife walking around loose, don’cha know...
Shooter was using those assault stabber bullets.
Gotta ban 9mm.
And 22 guage, and 12 caliber.
Just had a live online with a Police Officer but essentially
no details were given as they are still trying to piece the
shooting together.
You haven’t heard of the “Burst of Violence” white supremacist group?
They have meetings every Tuesday afternoon—in FBI HQ!
Oh I can do that. A burst of white supremacy involving multiple AR-15s erupted near the Pentagon today. (accuracy is irrelevant of course)
“only had a knife”
Knives are one of the few things that can penetrate Kevlar. Cops don’t like penetrated Kevlar.
“Since this happened on a Metro bus platform outside the Pentagon. It is likely that it is not related to the Pentagon.”
Maybe it was just the usual: “He disrespected me.”
Guess the knife didn’t have a silencer attached.
Can’t have a colonel armed with a knife walking around loose, don’cha know...
Sorry, no sympathy from me.
Who better than you to be in a position to try and change that.
Posting your dislikes of your orders here won't change anything for you.
As I posted in the previous thread:
Bus stops are dangerous places to hang out in DC.
Burst of violence.
Is there a vaccination for that?
The whole time I was on duty station in the Army in Germany I had a loaded .45 in my desk drawer that, so far as I know, was not accountable to anyone, not checked out from the arms room, just there. It was an unaccounted piece of office equipment. I was an E-4 15E20 filling an S-2 clerk slot. My desk was the first thing you saw when you entered battalion HQ. I suppose if the Baader-Meinhoff gang came in the front door (we had armed gate guards) I was supposed to do something about it.
