Ohio shooting

[Gman]

It doesn't seem like the issue with Vegas is the media. It seems that the government is restricting the details. There were firearms in the murderer's room that had bump stocks and others that didn't. We still don't know the details, but we had governmental action to take firearm furniture to the level of being a "machine gun".

We certainly don't know as much about the Vegas killer as we know within a day of these recent attacks. Maybe it was just due to his age/lack of social media participation, but I don't know. This morning I'm hearing about the Ohio killer having a 'kill list' and a 'rape list' and being kicked out of high school.

We've seen mass murders where legal restricted magazines were used, but the focus is a need to take away "high capacity magazines". Life experience has taught me that mass murder occurs without the use of firearms, but the political focus is to remove arms from the general public.

I just heard from the police chief in Ohio about the loose ammo in the killer's backpack, magazine capacity whether full or empty, to make the point that there could have been 250 victims (41 empty cartridges were recovered). The weapon was "modified to function as a rifle". I imagine this was a pistol with a brace where the brace was held to the shoulder, but no details yet.

"These are weapons of war." "There is no purpose for these types of firearms to be available to the public."

I see the implied messaging, being poured on while emotions are high, and it's targeted (no pun intended). I'm even hearing it on Fox News this morning as Islamist terrorism is being identified as "mental illness". 'Anybody that wants to kill a lot of people based on race is mentally ill." (Islamist terrorists don't give a rat's ass about "race", but this stuff is difficult for talking heads in the media.)

"Restricting access" is the mantra.

From what I can see, the Constitution is dead and our society is swirling the bowl.
