WrestlingRasta Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 22 dead. Suspect still at large. He is/was (couldn’t find for if still current prior to yesterday) firearms instructor in the Army Reserve. This summer was in psychiatric hospital, claimed of hearing voices. Walked into bowling alley/bar and opened fire. Ran out and as of this morning still at large. We all know what gun was used. Terrifying. Put all the right/left aside. It’s devastating we have to think about escape plans when we take our family out for some fun.
Ohio Elite Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 The fact that he was a firearms instructor makes him 10x more deadly. That's some scary stuff. My concealed carry 9mm wouldn't stand a chance. 1
Ban Basketball Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 Looks to be yet another case of homegrown terror, as the numbers repeatedly show.

Ban Basketball Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 No issue for me. I'm a responsible lifetime gun owner: all shotguns and rifles hidden away, and never leave my house unless I go hunting. I don't invite enough trouble where I need to carry a gun in public.

I used to have a .380 for that We do a considerable amount of work in some rough Philly neighborhoods. I carry my Walther 9mm. I'm amazed that when I tell people they think it's cool. It's an unpleasant feeling thinking you might have to defend your own life just to go to work. And like Ohio Elite said the 9mm isn't going to do much good. Wouldn't want to get caught up in a gang shooting where they're spraying bullets everywhere Edited October 26, 2023 by PortaJohn 1 I Don't Agree With What I Posted
ionel Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 The bulletin also states that CARD recently reported mental health issues, including "hearing voices and threats to shoot up the National Guard Base in Saco, ME." If he reported mental issues then why did he not lose access to guns? We have mental health issues in this country. 2 2BPE 11/17/24 SMC
WrestlingRasta Posted October 26, 2023 Author Posted October 26, 2023 I kind of feel like we have a mental health problem, a coping problem, a human decency problem, a respect problem, a glorification of weapons problem, an access to weapons problem, a refusal to acknowledge all and just focus on the one or two that fit our bill problem……. All of which contribute to what is going on. 8

Some if not most of these individuals actually want ( in a very sick evil way) this attention. 4

I have yet to read or watch any coverage as pretty much is all speculation at this point.

mspart Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 Why did this guy have access to guns with his background? In most places, it would be illegal for him to have guns with the mental issues he's had. I believe we have laws on the books to prevent this. Why are they not being enforced? mspart 1

I believe the red flag laws were a little too intrusive for their liking. I could be wrong. But they sure screwed up on that one. They did adopt a yellow flag law which obviously was a big mistake.

neutral Posted October 27, 2023 Posted October 27, 2023 No civilian should have an AR type rifle. Those are weapons of war. 1
headshuck Posted October 27, 2023 Posted October 27, 2023 I suppose this mentally ill psychopath would have just stayed home and watched tv if he didn’t have his AR? He probably had a cabinet full of weapons. 1
