You can't make this stuff up.

Switch to rapid fire?  And she's a former secret service agent. :wtf: :wtf:





She went full retard.  Her title is probably "Chief firearms analysis".

She did a correction on the automatic/semi-automatic thing.  Should have known better with her experience.

There's a possibility the gunman could have had an automatic as there's no details released yet, just have to wait and see what rifle he used..  Full auto is legal there.  Correction, guy was from Illinois so probably not.

You're kidding right? Sarcasm?

Didn't you see governor McAuliffe's comment above?

Why in the world would you think that after every other "mass public shooting" the result was 100% calls for greater "gun control" by the that side, that now they'd do a 180? Seriously. I mean I know that you also think that Tulsi Gabbard could sign on to HR 38, but... why?

I meant republicans will do the opposite and push for CCW.

Relax.

What a fucking moron. (That's an "objective" statement by the way.) If she was Secret Service it's amazing all the presidents haven't been assassinated... or maybe that's why she's "former" Secret Service... or maybe she was a desk jockey.

And that's the best "expert" the deep pockets of NBC could get on air? JFC!? The stupid, it hurts!


...
She looks like she might have provided some other kind of secret service.
Because she don't know crappie about guns.
What, Me Worry?

Quasi domestic dispute (involved daughter) where he struck a women and hit a man with butt of shotgun. >:D
Also discharged shotgun at same event. :wacko:
"Reprimanded" for shooting his rifle in his neighborhood last month. ::)

Another example of existing gun laws not being enforced giving the rest of us a bad name.  :wtf:
Besides, what is a lefty doing with a gun (even if it was an AK)?  ???


All's I can say is how come he couldn't have been a HRC supporter,  :grrr:

Quote
Media reports paint James Hodgkinson, the 66-year-old suspect, as a man angry at the surprise election of President Donald Trump
in November, with an increase in the number of anti-Trump messages he posted in anti-Republican Facebook groups coming recently.

“Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It’s Time to Destroy Trump & Co,” a recent post on an account believe
to be his reads. His account features a picture of Senator Bernie Sanders as the primary photo.

He appeared to be in several anti-Republican groups online, including ones named “Terminate the Republican Party”, “The Road
To Hell Is Paved With Republicans”, and “Donald Trump is not my President”.

Mr Hodgkinson’s interest in politics, however, is not a new development. Hailing Belleville, Illinois, volunteered on the the presidential
campaign for Mr Sanders in 2016. Pictures of him and letters to the editor sent to his local paper show that he was particularly upset
with rising income inequality, and advocated for raising taxes on wealthy Americans. He also wrote at least one letter in which he said
that marijuana should be legalised in order to raise revenues.

In those letters, he accuses other, conservative comment writers of spreading “lies and hatred and misdirection to anyone who will listen”.

I guess we see who the real hater is, huh?

There are a lot of Bernie supporters who are still blind enough to trust the Democrat Party.  He's totally anti-Trump, anti-Republican, anti-Conservative, and apparently anti-taking-his-meds!

Face it.  If HRC is so toxic you find yourself supporting a self-described Socialist, you're not improving your image at all by supporting Bernie!

I'm kind of surprised it took this long for a operation to occur. 
During the last 8 years it seemed like they occurred every 6 months when things got heated.

So there are 321.4 million people living in the U.S. 321.4M / 93M = 3.5 days.

We are all going to be dead in 3 1/2 days...people!!!

I don't buy her "correction". The whole point of her making the distinction was to state that the shooter could have been firing an automatic weapon due to the rate of fire (which of course isn't borne out by any of the video of the incident) compared to the police handguns which would have been actual semi-autos. She may have misspoken about the distinction between semi-auto and auto, and said "semi-automatic" when she meant to say "automatic", but she was clearly referring to a fully automatic weapon ("So the difference is a pistol can fire one shot at a time... pop... pop...pop... which is what the Capitol police were carrying. This individual had a rifle, a semi-automatic, which means that you can switch it to a point where it fires pop.pop.pop.pop.pop, multiple rounds.") and she then goes on to say "And this [full auto "mistakenly" called "semi-auto") is very likely the type of weapon that he's using, that is the type of weapon that we see in these mass shooting attacks."

I stand by my first appraisal. She's a fucking moron. And add that she's even more of a fucking moron and a liar with her attempt to cover her obvious ignorance with a "correction" that doesn't explain the most egregious error of her statement (auto rifles are used in mass public shootings... as I believe the correct number is zero), which could not have been a mere misstatement of one word for another. 1. She didn't know if the guy had a semi-auto or full auto (And from the only slightly edited video i saw of the whole event I never heard anything remotely resembling full auto fire), and 2. she is completely 100% wrong about full auto rifles being used it mass public shootings. Fucking idiot.

Just for shits and giggles, it could have been a binary trigger or bump fire.

I bet they've got a line on that in Vegas... how much are you wagering?

My wager: completely "ordinary" semi-auto rifle of some kind, likely extremely similar to those lawfully owned by millions of Americans (99.999% of whom don't shoot anyone with those rifles, well, except maybe in self-defense). Nuttin' fancy. And that she's full of shit. Probably wouldn't make much on that bet.
