These are not all the wepons he had, police chief said he had an AR-15
So where did he buy all the SWAT gear (full body armor) and tear gas canister?
and where and when did he train in using the weapons and the tear gas equipment? You dont just go buy this stuff, load up, put on a gas mask, and go shoot 71 people in the dark
It's rumored he has OWS and Black-Bloc connections.
Maybe there is some truth to those rumors after all....??

Yeah, you pretty much nailed it!
Are you really this ignorant? Or are you just from Noo Yawk City where nobody has the freedom to buy a Big Gulp, much less body armor?
I can buy these things any day of the week and twice on Sunday. I've been seriously considering some body armor, for the civil war that will break out after THE ONE'S re-selection in November.
And training? My 48-yo WIFE has more tactical weapons training than most cops, and she is just a citizen.
Oh, you mean the ...Smith and Wesson .233 high powered semi-automatic rifle... that was mentioned right there in the excerpt to this thread?
According to the full article he had a S & W .233 (aka AR-15), a Remington 870 shotgun and two Glock .40 pistols, all legally purchased. As far as "SWAT" gear, including a bullet proof vest and gas mask, it is all readily and legally available in a thousand different places.
All you need is a way to pay for it.
These are all just tools. Like any other item they can be used or they can be abused.
We don't need more gun control or more gas mask control. We do need more criminal and idiot control. When society and the law disarms everyone except the lawbreakers, the law abiding citizens are left defensless in the face of evil men like this shooter.
