Rooftop shooter, huh?

Next, they will be after scoped bolt-action rifles.

"WE CANNOT LET THESE SNIPER WEAPONS-OF-WAR BE IN CIVILIAN HANDS ANY MORE!!!"

Hey Republicans -- particularly you Cornyn and Mitchell -- you gonna 'negotiate' away more of our gun rights???

Wait until Trump announces he’s running if you think this is bad. The FBI won’t even investigate fully this attack. Think Las Vegas shooter.

Maybe it wasn’t possible here, but a common denominator to these mass shootings is that no one fired back.

That said, I’m sure a shot or two in the shooters direction would have made him pause or get distracted enough to safe a life.

Call me a cynic but I don’t believe anything is ‘random’ or the result of somebody wigging out. The Texas shooting has virtually disappeared off the radar now. Especially now that we know the police were absolutely negligent. Now this “mass” shooting... it’s a set up.

Just my two cents.

Suspect is white male, leftist radical, most likely antifa.

Barely able to fire weapon. Semi auto, shoots but doesn’t aim into crowds, panic fire. Drops weapon and blends into crowds.

Disgruntled leftists who hates Americans and hates rich white people in Highland Park.

Two dear friends of mine live in Highland Park and were at that parade. They had to run for their lives.

They were in attendance at the parade to honor my friend Carolyn's mother, who passed away at 94 last week. My friend Carolyn, her mom, dad, and entire family attended that parade for years together as family.

Thankfully my friend Carolyn and her husband Bob are both OK. Very shaken up, but ok. She's very angry, and IMO has a right to be. Carolyn's very anti-gun. She knows I'm very pro-gun. She texted myself and another friend (the three of us worked together at Leo Burnett in Chicago for years) to let us know what happened and that she was OK right as the news was breaking locally.

We're very thankful she's ok, and very sad for the families of the six who died along with all the others wounded and those who are fighting for their lives at this very moment.

My friend Carolyn blames guns and asked me "how long are you willing to tolerate the status quo?"

I waited awhile before responding, when I did I simply said "I'm very angry at this too, and no one accepts the status quo, independent of one's feelings about guns."

After about an hour, Carolyn apologized stating she was angry. I understand that. She's lost her father to Covid, her brother to suicide and her mother to bone cancer in the same year. Followed by having to run for her life today.

Sooner or later, people like my friend Carolyn and all those Highland Park, IL residents calling into WGN AM 720 this afternoon will have to come to the realization that passing more and more laws won't fix this.

The "bipartisan" gun control bill that Biden signed last week didn't stop this. Frankly, it won't stop anything. Neither will seizing all the guns from law abiding citizens.

There is a deep, evil rift in this country right now. There is no one thing that anyone can do to "fix" this problem --- including gun confiscation.

This country needs to turn to God and ask for forgiveness for losing its moral compass.

Only then will Almighty God hear our prayers and heal our land.

There is nothing more we can do.

I guess the nose piercings and tattoos were not enough. The look at me, look at me crowd has to resort to mass killings to be famous.
