Another sleeper activated to go bezerk with a gun, just in time to be used as fodder for the reauthorization of the Assault Weapon (sic) ban.....

I agree...or maybe a Bushy or AK-74 semi at most or a Mini-14.
We'll see. I can't recall a Class III attack aside from the North Hollywood "suicide by cop" bank robbers offhand can you?

Like how the article goes from some dude shooting people to an architecture lesson about Frank McGahee. Because anyone watching on TV would have thought the guy set off a huge bomb in the building.

How much does anyone want to bet the idiot anti-gun lobby will use this tragedy to lash out at pro-gun legislation.They always do, never mind the facts. Dancing in blood no matter what and the media plays right along.
It will be interesting to see what weapon this crazy was actually using. plus whether he had it legally, etc.

Here in Nashville yesterday, I listened to our local AM conservative talk radio dude on the way home and he did not know what the difference between an assault weapon in reality as contrasted with what the "law" claims is an assualt weapon. Yeah, what is an assault weapon now?
As I recall, an assault weapon was named to a class of rifles that have a high cyclic rate like a submachine gun and still retain the accuracy of a long rifle.
Another word bastardized by the left?

IMHO, tin foil hat brackets are not required. The timing is always just a little too perfect.

Say what you may but this was predicted just an hour ago in a different thread:
We'll see how resilient Tom Delay and the GOP is after a few more remotely-controlled psychos shoot up universities and playgrounds at the most convenient moments during anti-firearms legislation in Washington.

Hmm... black man with a machine gun... with camoflaged clothing.
I wonder how long before we hear from the VPC shrills.
To: MediaMole
That's funny.
My brother called me and told me some building collapsed, and it was on TV. Could I go on the internet and find out where it was?

I think that's an 'assault RIFLE'. Different than an assault WEAPON.....
At least today....

It sure seems like it. It was only yesterday that Sen. F- Swine introduced the legislation.

Like how the article goes from some dude shooting people to an architecture lesson about Frank McGahee.I wondered about that too. A total non-sequitur.

key word here is (MAN) About a decade ago, a woman did something similar at Penn State. Instead of holing up in a building, she hid in the bushes near Old Main. I saw recently where someone interviewed her to see how she's doing. It sounded like she was saying she shot people from the bushes to warn them she was going to kill herself. Funny, she never got around to that part.
Guns don't kill, people kill!
To: Frohickey
I bet it wasn't a machine gun.
I agree because the witness said she heard a bang not a rat-tat-tat
To: demlosers
You recall wrong. An assault rifle's salient attribute is select fire. That is, switchable between automatic and semi-automatic fire. All else is Barbara Streisand.

You are so right if Ms Spencer would have been armed she could have ended it right then and there. These killers get away with this because of the unarmed victim zones they attack in.<p Lets us not forget that the Ohio supreme court has to rule on there right to bear arms case yet.

Looking at those pictures can make you have an epileptic seizure. Ouch!

Any bets it was not a "machine gun"?LeKisha said it was a machine gun.
Don't you believe her?
She works in the first floor cafeteria afterall.
I'm sure she must be intimately familiar with all types of firearms.

There is a price we pay for the Bill of Rights. Part of it is the Klan speaking out for what they believe and marching down Main Street USA when they get the permits. Another price we pay for the Second Amendment is crap like this. Sure, there is a price: It is in time spent in training and learning competence with weapons. Actions like this are not a result of the 2nd Amendment, but of the gradual erosion of the 2nd Amendment, the destruction of traditional American values, and the creation of defenseless victim zones, such as Case Western Reserve University.
