Officers Shot At In SWAT Standoff - Houston News Story - KPRC Houston

KPRC Channel 2 news in Houston did the typical anti-gun hype

From the article

"When the officers arrived there, he came out of the apartment immediately and began firing rounds with a revolver, what appeared to be an automatic weapon."

Stupid is what stupid reports.

Reporters generally have a degree in journalism. Journalism school does not include any instruction on truth or common sense. They just spout what ever sounds eloquent at the moment.

Wow who knew a revolver was an auto loader.
Man something is wrong with all of mine then.

The scary part is he appears to be quoting the police chief?

I can see the libs trying to enact an assault revolver ban.......

I'm sure the reporter saw and identified what the guy had as a Webley- Fosbery, so he correctly reported it as a semi-auto.

My appologies for sending ANYONE to Wikepedia, they are about as poor a reference as you can find, but I didn't have a picture of a WF.[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webley-Fosbery_Automatic_Revolver[/URL]

LOL, this ship is in the hands of fools. Nice Mateba, there.

I spoke with one of the officers that was there last night and could get little to no info from him as it is still under investigation. The way he was talking it sounded like a 38.

As for the neighbor, that complex does have its share of morons.

Ok, so know you all know what city I live near

I think people like to equate rapid fire with automatic. Idiots.

My brother is LEO
He was at the City Owned LEO range and bump fired his AR-15
One of the employees at the sewer plant next door called 911 and said there was someone at the range shooting a full auto weapon. They called the range and guess who answered the phone? my brother.

Why can't LEO issue tickets for stupidity?

Cause they'd run out of paper and there wouldn't be any time to do real police work.

I am a big supporter of neutering of the stupid.

Bingo,theres the correct answer.

Stupidity is common place in the world of law enforcement.
