Would it be a bad assumption to think we have a ferally good idea what prompted the shooting?

Took a few second to blame this on gun violence....

“And here we are again having to talk about someone endangering the lives of people who came to celebrate,” Denver Mayor Michael Hancock said in the press conference.


I will reference long time Colorado (Woody Creek) resident the late Hunter S. Thompson:
“I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they’ve always worked for me.”

What did Thompson usually carry?
“...the coolest was his Heckler & Koch P9S. A futuristic-looking, double-action and single-stack 9mm made during the 1970s, the P9S is but a footnote today.”

“During a 2003 CNBC interview, Tim Russert asked the father of gonzo journalism about his affinity for firearms and how many shotguns he owned. “I have maybe seven or eight shotguns. Ten. But they’re all the best of the best,” Thompson said.”

Sorry I missed the full quote earlier. This is the instant knee jerk reaction as soon as they could find a TV camer with the light on:
“An incident that wounded two people, once again involving guns. And here we are again having to talk about someone endangering the lives of people who came to celebrate,” Denver Mayor Michael Hancock said in the press conference.

I believe I recall reading that Denver passed some local gun-control ordinance a while back. How is this possible.

Didn’t something fatal happen in the immediate “celebration” at games’ end?
