HOW TO READ THE PRESS COVERAGE ON THIS: If the news mwedia says he brought an arsenal, then he had more than one gun. If they say he used a machine gun, then it was not a single shot firearm.

Obviously it is being briefed now and they all know about the recent shootings in Germany; Gonzales, Texas and this one in Alabama...

Don’t think for a second that they do not have their own trigger (legislation) ready to pull to infringe and remove our right to keep and bear arms ready to fly...

The quick question that will be put on the table will be...

“Is it time?”

At which point, I have a high degree of confidence that there are a few people in this country who know what to dom and when to do it...

Enough is enough...

We need to remember these things to keep us energized into November 2010...

We need to take his House and Senate away from him, or we are in bigger trouble than just our right to keep and bear arms the way I see it...

This will be just the final insult to many people...

Anti-2nd Amendment camp pray it was a semi-auto, high-capacity anything

Reports around here are saying it was an M-16. Eye witness reports say he let off a 30 round burst as part of the spree, so it definitely sounds like it was a full auto firearm. Not something you pick up at a gun show.

I have relatives in Samson and my mother was born and raised there.

Foxnews article claimed the rifle was “automatic”.
Highly unlikely

“Agreed. All this proves is that not enough would-be victims are armed yet.”

So you know that his victims weren’t armed. We know that at least one of the wounded was indeed an armed police officer.

“Nah. It’s not horrific enough. They want a case that is mind numbing (as liberals own minds are numbed) with a huge body count.”

You mean like Virginia Tech? That led to some really harsh gun restrictions. Oh, no, wait, it didn’t.

” haven’t heard anything about who or why killed the pastor. Are the details out yet?”

Just google it. Your average neighborhood demented guy who may have been driven crazy by Lyme disease. Not a Muslim. Not a Christian hater.

the shooter then drove 12 miles east to Geneva

Better ban the automobile, too. Wait a minute. They're already working on that.

Here is the worst reporting ever on the recent church shooting

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,508627,00.html

his “arsenal” included two shotguns and 550 .22 cal bullets...

Heck, the guy had 14 bucks of ammo from Wal-Mart

“I would guess the most likely scenario is family trouble.”

Caused by psychological problems.

“Next would be laid off.”

This would be Bushes fault of course.

Here comes the new “assault weapons” ban. Maybe they will go for registration of “assault weapons” at the same time. Soon to be followed by confiscation.

Sorry, but you don’t actually know what they thought from time to time. Suffice it to say none of them did this kind of thing.

Fox is saying that he shot it out with police with his “automatic weapon.”

As usual, the guy shot the wrong one first.
