    If you give me $400 you can hold my Nerf gun while I make "pew pew" sounds.

    Such a deal!

    The nut jobs will get the guns no matter what. Guns are illegal in most of Europe yet the wackos still get them. With guns being legal we at least have the chance to defend ourselves in the much more common, yet less headline news everyday crime across this nation.

    And then there is that little thing called the United States Constitution.

    What do you define as a war gun? Fully automatic? 3 shot burst? To date not a single legally obtained full automatic or 3 shot burst has been used in a criminal offense in this country. Every single one of them was illegally obtained. Restricting law abiding citizens won't stop that.

    The Klu Klux Klan were democrat long before they were viewed as a far right group.

    I have seen the unedited photo some time ago when general media started to post it for anyone to see. I think there may be problems with that particular suicide. It is not my best area as far as forensics etc.

    The brass in the room should have piled, but we only have what we are told to see. If you been inside a shooting range with thousands of rounds it covers the floor. Heck I sweep the rounds ahead of the line after firing about 600 or so, it makes a nice little mess on the floor. Takes the weapon hours to cool down.

    The one remaining issue I have so far is that it's at least 400 yards from the building, 32 floors up. There will be a certain amount of ballistics trajectory drop before the rounds approach the crowd center. He must have already figured out what the drop must be to make the rounds get there center mass so to speak.

    I think at some point in the future there will be a autospy report perhaps. I will be watching for it, if they ever make such a thing availible. It will come out of the medical examiner office at some point in time if released.

    Im sorry I cannot say that this is a suicide or something else. There is too little damage for what is supposed to be a round in the mouth vs the fatal T spinal column below the brain pan where the centers of the heart and lung breathing controls are located. Take that out at C3 and higher death is pretty much instant. Fatal T is defined by your eyebrows and nose to top of your mouth. At 7 yards the front sights match the width for a proper headshot which is not really that encouraged in training. I tend to shoot high anyhow.

    why would the military need to take your guns so you cant defend yourself? couldnt they just destroy you with a fighter jet at anytime? so the strongest military in the world needs to take your guns? if they wanted your guns they would take them, and the military you support would be the ones to take them, but thats not what theyre after lol wake up fools. how well did their guns protect them in vegas lol order out of chaos. carry on sheeple
