mikew Posted October 2, 2017 at 03:42 PM Share Posted October 2, 2017 at 03:42 PM The mainstream media will be looking for soundbites, and trolls in social media will be looking for soundbytes. Specifically, many will be looking for interviews and statements from Bubba, to help reinforce a leftist, restrictive, or confiscatory viewpoint. Please, don't be Bubba. Let's consider what we say carefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InterestedBystander Posted October 2, 2017 at 04:23 PM Share Posted October 2, 2017 at 04:23 PM Already tying this to "silencers" and the NRA @HillaryClintonThe crowd fled at the sound of gunshots. Imagine the deaths if the shooter had a silencer, which the NRA wants to make easier to get. @HillaryClintonOur grief isn't enough. We can and must put politics aside, stand up to the NRA, and work together to try to stop this from happening again. and ...Sen. Chris Murphy of Connecticut demanded that Congress "get off its a** and do something." "This must stop," Murphy said. "It is positively infuriating that my colleagues in Congress are so afraid of the gun industry that they pretend there aren't public policy responses to this epidemic."...

Illinois Sucks Posted October 2, 2017 at 04:51 PM Share Posted October 2, 2017 at 04:51 PM Already tieing this to "silencers" and the NRA @HillaryClintonThe crowd fled at the sound of gunshots. Imagine the deaths if the shooter had a silencer, which the NRA wants to make easier to get. "It sounded like fireworks going off" said EVERY person EVER interviewed post shooting. So why don't we see mass people flee at the at the sound of fireworks? Because the crowd fled at the sight of falling bodies... not gunshots. Stupid Hillary!

DoYouFeelLucky Posted October 2, 2017 at 06:12 PM Share Posted October 2, 2017 at 06:12 PM My boss was in a hotel down the strip, attending a conference. Thankfully he is OK. As long as the liberal democrats are OK with armed violence by antifa and other terrorist groups they support, their words are just dramatization of an event to further an agenda, not any genuine care about the people of our country.

jim123 Posted October 2, 2017 at 06:46 PM Share Posted October 2, 2017 at 06:46 PM A far lefty shooting at what he believes to be a huge crowd of Trump supporters?

Googe1227 Posted October 2, 2017 at 09:26 PM Share Posted October 2, 2017 at 09:26 PM Too early to know for sure what rifles he had in that hotel room. It sure sounded like full auto fire to me from what I saw on Fox this morning. So, did he have a pre-1986 tax stamp for an automatic rifle? Or did he illegally convert an AR-15? Time will tell. Thoughts and prayers to all of those affected by the actions of this insane individual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Fife Posted October 2, 2017 at 11:29 PM Share Posted October 2, 2017 at 11:29 PM Just saw on news that Miles West H.S. was on a lockdown from a gun scare today.
