I’m totally p***** that no one called the cops the day before...when they kicked him out. Just getting his license number might have stopped this...if the cops spotted him and approached him in his vehicle.

Per WKBW: 2020 and 2021 were Buffalo’s most violent years in decades with 65 people killed in 2020 and 67 in 2021.

Where has Deep State been?

“..lethality would have been unimaginable to the authors of the Second Amendment.”

Like comparing the telegraph to the internet.

If the 2nd doesn’t protect semi-automatics, the 1st doesn’t cover the internet.

The Buffalo shooter picked Buffalo because of the strict gun laws. He didn’t want to be interrupted while he did his awful deed.

In subsequent colloquy Justice Samuel Alito erroneously suggested that criminals in New York were already widely “packin heat” on the subway, a false claim that New York’s woefully un-prepared solicitor general did not bother to correct when queried.

Assertion without evidence. How do they know it's false?

I was not talking about a possible future event, but rather one of the the principles underpinning the Second Amendment: that the citizenry has the right to be as well armed as their government.

That civilian citizens can are not and cannot be as well armed as our military does not, in my view, negate that principle, though. Nor does it mean everyone should be able go out and buy missiles and grenade launchers and whatnot. Being well-enough armed to resist should the unthinkable happen is sufficient.

“False claim”

Well, the subway shooter was actually on the platform, not on the train, so…..

Back in the day, a lot of those squirrel guns were ghost guns.

They would also have been shocked at the power and lethality of the MSM ‘press’ today compared to the then-contemporary citizen printing presses with regard to the First Amendment. Perhaps we should call for drastic controls on the ‘press’ and make journalists, publishers, et al get licenses, background checks, waiting periods etc...

Make them set type by hand.

And then ban lead.
