He looks possessed.

[heavy metal]

got that adam schiff look...

[dadfly]

crossed my mind when i heard about this. again. mental health is the issue, nothing to do with guns.

[kiryandil]

Did he buy it 78 minutes before the dirty deed?

Because in that case, nothing could be done for the victims...

[Sirius Lee]

He looks possessed.

Correct. The demoniacs appear to be running free all over the Earth in a literal sense. 'Tis the season.

[Rurudyne]

That is just the deer in the mug shot lights effect.

Now the time has come, there are things to realize.

If I wanted a semi-auto rifle I would have to go through numerous background checks, and then wait a few weeks even though I am a generally reasonable person and also have a concealed permit.

There have been School Shootings in my state, but did anyone care about the Psychotropic drugs that the shooter was given ?

did any of the Draconian gun laws passed after these tragedies address the problem the real problem, or act in any way to prevent the next one ?

Nope

[Tell It Right]

Back surgery and back pain are real deals. I wonder what kind of pain meds he was on.

[Seruzawa]

Yep. Another product of psych drugs.

[grey_whiskers]

How long did it take the police to secure the scene here, as opposed to all the school shootings?

Just curious.

[traderrob6]

BWAAAAHAHAHAHA, precisely.

[PMAS]

I’m hearing the phrase “AR-15-style rifle” a lot more in lieu of “Assault Rifle” on news reports.

[Starboard]

nothing to do with guns

**************

How many lives are saved because people have guns to protect themselves and discourage attacks, robberies, vengeful acts, heated disputes, etc? Must be a huge number.

[Starboard]

How long did it take the police to secure the scene here

************

Its always too long.

[OKSooner]

There might be a good reason for that.

[joe fonebone]

Tell you what...
He can take his ar-15 and 30 rounds..

I will take my super Blackhawk and 6 rounds...
Let’s see who wins

[Thank You Rush]

I can’t believe there isn’t a waiting period in OK before taking the purchased weapon out the door. There no doubt will be one soon!

Is it just me or is the media changing their spots by calling this an AR 15 STYLE weapon? CNN has been doing that today. So many CNN reporters have been taken to the woodshed over their “it’s a weapon of mass destruction”, could they have FINALLY gotten the message? It’s a gun, folks.

What if this bum had gone in with a .22 rifle? What would they call that? A tommy gun?

You just beat me by a few minutes. Back pain is real and can be hard to diagnose. This may have been a guy who needed medical marijuana. Seriously. I dont condone recreational use but some people are only moving because of MJ's anti inflammation properties and the anti anxiety properties. That and it can take a few weeks for the pain to subside. Oxy for a few days and then Tylenol. Take it easy and dont rush anything.

or the dude was possessed and nothing was gonna stop him short of someone with a gun in the gun free hospital.

Getting shot in a gun free zone is ok, defending others in a gun free zone- not so much.

massive. especially for lone, targeted women. got to get our daughters trained.
