Lovelle Mixon: Oakland Police Shooter Kills 4 Cops

[Peikko 1,575]

Clearly what type of weapon is used is not irrelevant. Pro gun seems to imply low IQ as well. How sad.

Pure fear mongering. In the meantime, police officers are dying.

So clearly it's the guns to blame and rather than the person who pulled the trigger.

I say ban guns. Ban them all because I cannot wait to see what excuse you will make once they are off the streets and the cops continue to be killed in the line of duty.

Goddam you're one stupid SOB.

Control at the manufacture level means manufacturing for legitimate consumers that need such weapons- law enforcement and certifiably clean civilians. Limiting production. Databasing those tracking events so that every legal change gets automatically updated without much human manpower waste.

it's a good thing you don't decide who "needs" a gun.

I don't need to make ludicrous comments to pass myself off like you do daily.

But I do wonder... what is so wrong with law enforcement and capable citizens being the only ones able to purchase assault rifles? Must be something wrong with my logic circuits.

.44 magnum. and yes, there are bigger bullets out there.

Left to right: 3 in 12 ga magnum shotgun shell (for comparison), size "AA" battery (for comparison), .454 Casull, .45 Winchester Magnum, .44 Remington Magnum, .357 Magnum, .38 Special, .45 ACP, .38 Super, 9 mm Luger, .32 ACP, .22 LR

You could do an AT&T commercial with those bullets.

never fire a .44 mag on a steel bridge

Whether a person is successful in their "attempt" depends a lot on the capacity they have to carry it out. That's how you "cut it".

Its quite obvious really.

So once again you avoid analyzing the perpetrator of the crime but prefer to scapegoat the means used to carry it out.

Therefore based on your warped logic, somehow, by banning such guns people will all of a sudden not feel like killing cops. That will just be the past. Water under a bridge.

Let me guess, your not saying that.

I know exactly what you are saying. Instead of four cops dead, one or two cops would have been killed.

How about no cops dead period? How about punishing, imprisoning and torturing anyone who attacks let alone kills cops?

I disagree.

Apples to oranges. Assault rifles can fire off much faster and with more accuracy than high powered handgun and from a much farther distance.

Look, when the police are calling for assault rifle ban, then you know they have legitimate concerns for their safety as well that of citizens. It's really not that difficult to see the potential threat. And if you think any projectile weapon should be legal, why not allow missile launchers? Tanks? Reasonable regulations can and will be instituted...without any constitutional challenge. The gun lobby knows that which is why they focus their efforts on PR to scare citizens into thinking that the government wants to take away their guns. Pure fear mongering. In the meantime, police officers are dying.

yes, assault rifles can fire faster, but that's usually known as spray and pray. assault rifles are hindered in close quarters too.

Goddam you're one stupid SOB.

As I thought, no legitimate response. Dude I know you yank liberals and your pathetic responses like the back of my hand.

Stick to rendering game scenes.

How dare you! I'm right!

You're right. I did not and am totally not saying that.

How about no cops dead period? How about punishing, imprisoning and torturing anyone who attacks let alone kills cops?

That's what you'd do is it?

I can't say I'm surprised.

So the perpetrator in this case barricaded himself in an apartment. Do you really think he would have been able to kill two heavily armored SWAT members as well as injuring a third one with anything other than an assault rifle? Because, if so, our police and SWAT are f##ked anytime someone wants to barricade themselves in building. Might as well bomb the building or fire rockets into it.

Time to pull out the instant-rebuttal formula so you get suspended since its not your fault- kit.

[Heracles 417]

You're right. I did not and am totally not saying that.

So what the hell are you saying then? Stop talking in code and actually have a stance for once. If we ever have a world war again you will be an excellent weapon to us allies. We'll just get you to broadcast daily. Three year later the enemy won't have the slightest idea of what the heck you are on about.

Why would I do that BY. You've proven that the only voice you want to hear is your own.

What an interesting villain this is, not only is he probably an expert shot, he's also ex army as well. Fascinating.
