So will gun controllers speak out against the perp who had a likely illegal weapon?
The comment sections of the articles I’ve seen on this incident are already blaming the NRA and FOX news
“The scumbag probably had an illegal gun and made the miscalculation of pointing it at the officer.”
One news report said the serial number was scratched out. Definitely an illegal handgun when in the hands of an 18 year old on the street in any case.
He was a felon on probation. If he had been frisked he would have gone back to prison. He didn’t want to do that. He was successful in his endeavour. He won’t go back to prison, now.
All officer involved shootings are investigated.
