Shooter at DC Navy Yard

[DaveS]

News is now reporting at least six dead. What a shame. This ought to fair well for our gun rights!

What's that hole in the roof? Oh, that's ammo prices going through the roof again! :rant:

 

luvmyberetta, Our thoughts and prayers are with your brother and his co workers. :up:

[Erik88]

He was scheduled to speak before the shooting happened.

 

This^^. I'd rather him do that than speculate before all the facts come in. I fully expect him to push for gun control again.   

 

I wouldn't be surprised if this was terrorism though but too soon to tell.

[Wingshooter]

It's a tragic event for sure, but I don't see this getting the political legs that the last tragedy did.

[TMF]

Very odd it being black assailants. There's a reason why certain profiles exist and why spoiled, picked on white boys tend to do this. Plus there being multiple shooters. Not often do you find multiple people to go do a suicide mission just because they're pissed at the world. This requires indoctrination, training, funding and sophistication considering the target.

Or it's just work place violence again.

Guess we need to go to Syria to get quality US arms now...

[Mark@Sea]

Home grown jihadists (ex cons).  Bets, anyone?

 

Damn to hell the military brass that won't allow their own troops to carry self defense tools.  Especially these days.  Every member of the armed forces should be, at minimum, pistol qual'd and at least allowed to carry, if not required. 

[JohnC]

No, it won't. Gun control is dead as a door nail.

 

No it's not:

This happening is just what they need to get a bill like the above passed. Better start writing and petitioning your reps!

[Dolomite_supafly]

Berretta I would not worry much about not being able to get a hold of your brother. In situations like this they keep witnesses isolated until they can speak with them and with the amount of witnesses that are likely involved it might take all day. Hopefully he calls soon or they allow him to make a call just to let you guys know he is fine.

 

If there are multiple shooters I suspect it was not a suicide plot, especially if they were not white. Not saying suicide is a white only phonomenon but it is more a white phenomenon than black. Whether is it work place violence, a "terrorist attack" or somethign else it will likely be used to promote more gun control.

Maybe. Seen this yesterday...

 

IS THERE A JAMA ‘AT UL-FUQARA TERRORIST TRAINING CAMP NEAR YOU

[Guest 6.8 AR]

Could very well be that terrorist thing. I'm sure we'll find out way after the fact, when the news about a nasty assault weapon

is heard far and wide.

 

That list is very interesting. Notwithstanding Dover, TN, which I've heard about, but places like Falls Church, VA,

which is damned near DC. I wonder how well watched by the FBI those places are?

 

Going to have to find out more about the Dover one. Like an address.

Bet you money Obama won't use the words "terrorsit attack".
Bet you money Obama won't admit it even if faced with hard facts proving it so.

He would never indict his own brethren.

[billyscott]

According to WSMV, the Police Chief of DC says one shooter is dead, two are still at large;

One a white male with a handgun, one a Black male about 50 with a long gun. Both in military outfits.

Damn Amish.  One would think that the getaway buggy would tip someone off...

[Dolomite_supafly]

This is looking more and more like a deliberate terrorist attack and not work place violence or a suicide pact.

 

I wonder how well received the lock down of DC, like Boston, will be?

[knewcomb]

They are an unarmed public. They will gladly do as they are told and shudder in place

So, any reports of allah-hu akbar shouts??

I've heard about the supposed terrorist training camp in Dover, TN, but nothing more than speculation.

[Shug]

On CNN there was some lady conducting interviews, and as some guy was trying to explain what he witnessed the reporter keep asking what kind of weapon he saw, what kind of bullets he was using. The guy told her he had no idea. But she kept pushing the same questions

There is one off "Taylors Chapel" and one near the old "Rattlesnake Ridge Range". There is another but, not sure where. If you see "Charlie Mike" (CM) Cruise Missile over Dover...crap just hit the fan! LOL
