BTW, Paul Revere never made it to Concord to warn the townspeople that the 'Regulars' were coming. He was with two other riders, on the road to Lexington/Concord, when they were stopped by a British Army patrol. One rider got away, and it was he who went on to Concord. Revere and the other rider were held for several hours by the British, and when they were released, went north to Bedford to warn the militia in that area.
I’m not sure. It’s a name I saw on TV earlier. Plus there is a post (somewhere), about a man with this name and another man arrested in an alleged robbery in the town not long ago. Does anyone know which post that was?
You know that. I know that. Chances are, most of the kids at VTI *didn’t* know that.
Schools don’t teach traumatic first aid any more. They don’t even teach first aid for “puncture wounds”, which would also cover this. They’re too busy using health class time and funds to “explore different sexualities” and how to put a condom on a banana.
What’s the holdup on releasing the name of the shooter, anyhoo? Are we having trouble lining up enough Gulfstreams to fly his family back home to Saudi Arabia?
Um...you don’t know me. Don’t act like you do.
Probably had a 15 round clip for each one .... that and a few spare magazines each .... he could have killed a lot more.
It was an article in the local paper. As I recall, it was also carried on Phila TV stations. Sorry I can’t be more specific than that. The town is Franklin Twp in Southern NJ.
At University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill. It was a miracle that no one was killed. And yes, it was done by a Muslim.
We should be careful not to take all of these stories at face value. I remember all of the "first hand" accounts of 9/11 that ended up being complete BS.
Thanks, Dinah.
Using a Barreta as an example. The clip will hold 15. With one round in the chamber the firearm will have 16 shots.
There are ranges on school property (in some cases, indoor) at the older high schools .... in SAN FRANCISCO! Needless to say, they ain’t being used as ranges any more!
Depends on the make/model.
If I had to guess on a gun type, I would say a Glock since its widely popular, so somewhere between 10-15 rounds per clip. For 50 people he probably needed between 4-6 clips or more.

Exactly....and it only takes a few seconds to change a clip
Yes, it was a Muslim. He even said he did it to avenge what America was doing in the Middle East, but the MSM almost never reports that kind of info.
If there can be a silver lining to this, is that Universities will take security much more seriously before a real organized attack by Al-Qaeda takes place.
I have long speculated that eventually they will try to do an orchestrated attack across several universities. Universities are one of the few places where middle eastern types can roam around without raising much suspicion, and you have many students jammed together in auditoriums that could result in either high casualties, or a situation where many hostages could be taken, like the theater in Moscow several years ago by the Chechnyans.
NC State. Also, there was the guy who blew himself up outside the football stadium at OSU.
