Naval Shipyard + Renewed gun control

[rushthezeppelin]

I was getting a bit worried yesterday, but finally late last night I got shipping notification on the rest of my reloading stuff from natchez. Definitely not interested in playing the backorder game because some idiot stormed a naval base with a shotgun.

they can't bitch about the AR this time, it looks like he started out with a shotgun and took the AR and pistol from his victims

But...but...but....Communist News Network said he bought an AR-15 shotgun!!!

I think Obama's remarks are very telling. He didn't hesitate to call it a mass shooting but other than that he stayed the hell away from gun control remarks. That is a first in his entire presidency.

Gun control is political suicide and they know it.

Not to mention there are so many factors that don't fit the gun control narrative.
- Shooter purchased a double barrel shotgun
- Other weapons were taken from those that were supposed to protect them
- Shooter was black
- Happened in a city famous for strict gun control already
- Happened in a gun free zone
- Happened in a secure facility

This will be difficult to exploit without a lot of blowback.

Always be vigilant, but it's hardly time to cry about the sky falling either.

Carney says he's talking more executive actions.

the White guy has been cleared of any involvement. Aaron Alexis (34) is dead and the search is on for another Black male reportedly in his 50's.

This is how FBHO gets the news, and we are all racist. And his son just died in a work place violence.

Seriously. Let's just hope the "No More Names" people don't add another terrorist to their list of names to read.

This shooting took place in Washington DC, a place that has some of the strictest gun restrictions in the nation. The shooter had repeated brushes with the law, previous violent episodes and some say that the AR-15 was stolen after he arrived on base.

Obama is a compulsive liar but it's going to be very difficult to spin this incident to his advantage.

Check out how many laws this man broke before he even opened fire!:

"By just being in the city with a loaded firearm, regardless of whether he was the legally registered owner, the suspect Aaron Alexis would be in violation of D.C. law. Carrying a concealed firearm or carrying a firearm openly in D.C. are both against the law. Bringing a firearm from out of state without registering it in D.C. is illegal. Assault-style rifles are banned. And even traveling through D.C. with a firearm is illegal.

In addition, the Navy Sea Systems Command headquarters is a federal facility that is subject to federal law, which prohibits carrying a firearm onto the premises (except by law enforcement or members of the armed forces).

Gun-rights advocates frequently suggest that tough gun laws don't make people safer. In 2012, D.C. reported fewer than 100 homicides for the first time since 1963.


Here's an overview of some of D.C.'s gun rules:

Buying a gun:

10-day waiting period between purchasing and obtaining a firearm.

"Assault weapons" (certain models of semi-automatic rifles), including the most popular rifle in America, the AR-15 (used in the Aurora theater shooting and the Newtown shooting) are banned.

Large capacity magazines (more than 10 rounds) are banned.
Selling a gun to anyone who is reasonably believed to not be "of sound mind" is illegal.
Machine guns and sawed-off shotguns are banned.
Parent or guardian permission required for gun purchasers between the ages of 18 and 21.
You must purchase a firearm from a registered firearms dealer in D.C.
Who can't buy a gun:
The legally blind.

Anyone who has been convicted of a violent crime or a weapons offense
Anyone who is under indictment for a violent crime or weapons offense.
Anyone who has been convicted of a drug offense or making threats to do bodily harm in the last 5 years.
Anyone who has been adjudicated to be an alcoholic or acquitted of a crime by reason of insanity in the last 5 years.*
Anyone who has been committed to a mental institution in the last five years.*
Registering a gun:
Any previously owned firearm must be registered in the District.
Firearms must be re-registered every three years.
Gun owners must complete a background check, an online firearm safety course, and pass a test about D.C.'s gun laws.
Pass vision requirements.
Owning a gun
Carrying a concealed weapon in DC is illegal.
Carrying a weapon openly is illegal.
You can be arrested and your firearm confiscated if you stop in DC for any reason with a firearm from out of state.
Transporting any loaded gun in a vehicle in DC is illegal. Guns are required to be unloaded and unable to be accessed by the driver. The firearm or ammunition cannot be stored in the glove compartment or console.
Gun free zones include day care centers, schools, universities, public swimming pools, video arcades, or youth centers. Carrying a gun into a gun-free zone carries a fine or can result in imprisonment."

Maybe he had one of these and CNN is finally smart enough to describe it for your non-military/non-gun loving viewers?


Lol doubt it

 

[Big Phil]

But notice what people aren't talking about!

Syria? Benghazi? Nope. Smoke and mirrors.

Also what's the total for mass shootings in one presidency?

mass shootings, it seems have occurred a lot more under Obama. Wouldn't you say?

is there a pattern?

 

[shortround]

This event will not get traction for gun control:

1. Shooter was not white, and/or white latino.

2. None of the victims were active duty Navy sailors; all were older folks in civil service or DOD contract jobs. No children involved.

3. Shooter passed a background check, and purchased his shotgun from an FFL in Virginia. No way to blame on the lack of background checks or gun shows.

4. Gun grabbers don't think mental illness is a problem that affects the general population.

5. AR-15 fears were quickly dispelled.

6. Gun grabbers have a mental disorder that they cannot reconcile with the truly criminally insane.

7. Shooter was born and raised in Queens, NYC.

NPR is saying that he has a TX concealed handgun permit

Turn that shit off

 

[AcidFlashGordon]

Our illustrious senior, senile, demented, Alzheimer's infected senator from Nevada, Harry "Pinkie" Reid, says it's still a no-go for gun control:

Reid: Gun control still a no-go after Navy Yard shootings | Las Vegas Review-Journal

"We don’t have the votes. I’d like to get them, but we don’t have them now,” Reid told reporters.

The senile POS is parroting Feinslime with his "We don't have the votes" bullshit.

 

[SA Justin]

I know I'm preaching to the choir, but dc has very strict gun laws and cc is illegal on military bases. When will these libs put two and two together and realize that legislation can't prevent gun violence? Time and time again it is proven that the only thing that can stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.

 

[Renegade]

He may have had it on him.

They story I heard was his roommate claimed he had one. No mention of which state (VA is easy to get a Permit, even if out of state).

 

[grumper]

Shooter was an obama supporter. Just like Dorner.

They also said Gabby Gifford was shot and killed.. Go figure.
