I appreciate your ardor, but facts is facts, and she shot this dummy multiple times. He was in no way as prepared, (coldly) rational or intelligent as the kid from last week. However, that really changes very little about the point you are trying to make. How many people heard about this? I live in S.A. area, and it was not that big of a story. But here is what I wonder: ( Gun owner btw, shotty and 22. No handguns, cant see a reason for one my 12 gauge defender will suffice for home protection more than any pistol ever will) This was a sherrif deputy. This was someone, who even if gun control was to be put in place, would most likely still be allowed to carry a weapon.
How does this truly affect the current debate? Pretty much not at all.
Pending investigation last I checked, but the rifle was not a legal weapon. This was not white suburban teen xanax angst. There are more illegal, modified ak's in S.A. then you probably want to think about. And gun control will NOT remove those weapons. Alot of unregistered weapons travel the I-35 corridor, and a staggering amount of them were distributed by the fucking government. They preach gun control friends, not to make you safe but to keep them safe. From you. You may not, will not, choose not to believe this, but until OUR government in USA stops arming criminals and other countries, perhaps they need to STFU about gun bans, because they are putting AUTOMATIC weapons, RPG's, .50 cal fully auto army issue weapons into the hands of the drug cartels in mexico. Some of those are getting used here.
