It was mostly paid for by the rich nutcase it was named after. The construction project ran years over schedule and millions of dollar over budget.

Guns don't kill, people kill!


TRUTH IS TRUTH

"As I said several weeks ago on other threads, the assault weapons ban is ready to sunset, so get ready for several mass killings with "assault weapons" to get the politicians in a "ban" mode."

Indeed, it seems the "lobbying efforts" have begun.

How many cases like this have we had in the past ten years? I agree that the timing is supremely suspect, yet what it signifies is far more terrifying than a simple "assault weapon" ban. Much, much more terrifying.

Coincidence? I think not.

You have a point, but I was certain this was his handiwork to begin with. Looks like the offspring of a mating between a 747 and a brick outhouse. Hardly the thread for humor, but considering this monstrosity, the architect surely must have designed this for Disneyland and someone switched the drawings.

This just in! Reuters has obtained a photograph of the gunman taken by one of the students at Case Western Reserve University:

You mean someone made those buildings look like that ON PURPOSE?

He had a machine gun, book bag, camouflage shirt, military green hat, white pants and a bookbag," she said. "I didn't see his face

Two book bags......gotta be series......Stay Safe !

[Squantos]

Hell my first house I built looked like too till I got a level and a plum bob.............gheeesh I didn't even have to try......:o)

Stay Safe !

That's exactly what happened in the last New Orleans school shooting.

[Bogey78O]

Too bad decent hunting rifles are too expensive for people to go on rampages. I'd like to see the Dems propose a ban of all .270s and .30-06

[LittleJoe]

But you'll ruin a great headline thinking like that! It's time to renew the Assault Weapon Ban, dontcha know

Count on it...Finestink will have a speech ready by monday morning.
I previously said her bill won't go anywhere. I think I was wrong.

Banning of assault weapons, and all guns is here to stay. Assault weapons will go while Bush is in office, and all firearms will go when the next Democrat takes office.

This should lead to some interesting times. If we use the banning of drugs for an example, kids will be able to obtain an assault weapon tommorow as easily as they can obtain a joint today!

"But if the students carried guns, this guy would be in the morgue already."

If students were ALLOWED to carry guns, we wouldn't NEED these SWAT team guys that are the standing army our founders feared. (Which is why they lobby against citizen carry freedom..)

[Atlas Sneezed]

"Disparaging remarks like this do not help in achieving this goal."

(Never mind the truth of those remarks.)

Must be one of them new-fangled "Machine Gun/Assault Weapon/High Powered Rifles!"

My son (A Marine!) fires an assault weapon - The SMAW, 68mm of whup-a$$.

The squad, multipurpose, Assault Weapon used as anti-tank or anti bunker - has a 9mm spotting rifle and an 8 pound warhead.
His MOS? AssaultMan - no PC crud for the Marines.Use keyword SMAW or US Marine Assaultman -- as they say, lots of fun fotos.....

Hoo-ah

[wardaddy]

Yep....not too many Holland and Holland .375 double rifles used in maniac shootings..lol

[wardaddy]

That's quite a step down from "machine gun" earlier.

As I said several weeks ago on other threads, the assault weapons ban is ready to sunset, so get ready for several mass killings with "assault weapons" to get the politicians in a "ban" mode.

That's a fair description of the plot of my novel. You can read the first half of it by clicking the cover.

As I said several weeks ago on other threads, the assault weapons ban is ready to sunset, so get ready for several mass killings with "assault weapons" to get the politicians in a "ban" mode. Just keep repeating to yourselves; "It's only a coincidence"! "It's only a coincidence!"

Alright, I'll play along. Who hires these people - a lot of them just kids - to commit these atrocities? The FedGov? Who in the FedGov, exactly? Do they brainwash them or pay them off handsomely?
