Open-carry law under scrutiny after Colorado Springs rampage

[Irving]

The article is not trying to say he wouldn't have shot anyone, it is suggesting that the dispatcher blew off the first call because open carry is legal. However, right in the article, it states that she did her job and put it immediately to dispatch as she was supposed to have done. Her comments to the caller are completely irrelevant and the entire article should never have been written.

Yes, people are this dumb. Yes, lots of people have commented that it's insane that open carrying is legal. That it's "time we changed these backwards laws". Yes, people are this dumb. Oh wait, did I already mention that?

Article author AND publisher should both be ashamed. Since they're apparently incapable of that, I'd settle for them being beaten.

The 4th estate doesn't care what you or I think. As long as someone's commenting on an article, they have readers. Keep in mind this story is a national, if not international one.
YET the stabbings ON CAMPUS, in Merced CA, virtually disappeared. Why??

The attacker was a California resident who was living on campus, Merced County Sheriff Vern Warnke said


Well, one could rule out what faith and or ethnicity he wasn't.

Because his last name is Mohammad.

Warnke said Mohammad made several references to the Muslim god Allah, but he doesn't believe the violence Wednesday was connected to religion or terrorism.

Yeah, it's just a coincidence.

C Coincidence, OR C CONSPIRACY ?

By the time full scale "Isolated Incidents" ramp up, it will be too late. The lone wolf goes unnoticed among the sheep, more so than a pack.

I know we're off topic now, but apparently the Muslim stabber guy wrote a manifesto talking about how he was angry at some classmates....it also contained ramblings about jihad. The authorities are caulking this one up to nothing more than a revenge attack, in other words, completely blowing off the terrorist wannabe diary as insignificant.

What's so wrong with calling a spade, a spade?

Edit: wanted to add a source.

Apparently because it tends to cause the "spades" to "spade out".

Lots of "work place violence" out there. Too bad some of these "workers" aren't permitted to consume alcohol. They're missing out on micro-brews with The Prez.
