Fox was interviewing Councilman McMahon from Statin Island that witnessed the incident and said it was NOT a random act. He thought the shooter was specifically targeting someone. I assume "someone" is Councilman Davis.

A political opponent walked over to shake Councilman Davis's hand, and shot hit twice in the chest.
Davis's friend, who made the statement, refered to Davis in the past tense.

I'm surprised they didn't say it was a silver automatic revolver. A silver plated Webley-Foresby or Mamba? possible but as you know highly unlikely.

"...lots of little dressed-up girls in the audience..."princesses" for an ethnic parade"It's becoming all too clear. Yep, Stage dads. How do you copy when your daughter doesn't make the cut?

I missed that. I had to go pay the guy who was cleaning my daughter's sofa.
So, Davis was targeted?

What ails these idiot reporters????????Nothing, except their idiocy -- but that only ails us, not them. (P.S. They're not reporters, they're "personalities" and "news readers," and they can't even get the latter right.)

I heard that coverage too.
So, who are Davis' political opponents in the next election?

WABC reports that a city councilman says that Davis was shot by his opponent in an upcoming election. That is a stupid way to try to win an election.

I know that every day when I go home on the LIRR, I wonder if some jack assed terrorist or wannabe will try and blow up one of the tunnels or bridges. If I were you I would also be worried about the next Colin ferguson wannabe and make sure I was able to defend myself (that is armed.)

Why would you think it was terrorism? A terrorist wouldn't have shot just a single relatively unkown(nationally) politician, when he had an entire city council as potential targets within easy range. No, right now it sounds like simply a political assassination. So Bloomberg's statement that it is not terrorism is not only reasonable, but wise given the NYC post-9/11 context and manhunt taking place. His off-the-cuff melodramatic "This is an attack on all Americans" statement is perhaps more worthy of criticism.

They meant to say "chrome". But they know nothing about most things, including guns. I'm surprised they didn't say it was a silver automatic revolver.
Maybe you meant to say STAINLESS STEEL not CHROME

Twenty or thirty shots with a handgun? Surely he didn't have an opportunity to reload.
