I thought and was hoping that this would be about a porn flick filming.

First person who says something idiotic like "now is not the time for a conversation about --- violence" needs a kick in the dick.

Signed- a gun owner, lover, carrier, and shooter.

Going from the Reddit thread it sounds like the suspects escaped the scene. This could easily be another Boston manhunt...

Looks like there are shots fired at a nearby Target store, and possible shooter at a nearby elementary....

The news is losing their minds right now. Good thing that we have to register our semi-auto long guns there now otherwise...

This'll probably end in the same fashion as that Dorner thing a while ago. The county doesn't take crap like this lightly. This sounds like some gangland narco war nonsense like you see south of the border though.

It's not hard to figure out where they get the idea though.

This is really crazy. The San Bernardino police scanner is up to 115k listeners, and FBI has a plane circling the area (per Reddit)

We all know it is NEVER the right time to talk about gun violence. If we don't talk about it, it isn't happening.

It's a PILATUS PC-12/45, N497PC (single engined turboprop), probably loaded with all sorts of "toys".

It's registered to US DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY BTW, not the FBI.

There is also a Skylane and two Eurocopters circling (news)

(Kind of strange the info you can easily get of the internet)

But those were all false flag attacks carried out by the government so Obama can come and take away our guns! Except for the ones committed by Muslims, those were tragedies perpetrated by terrorists.

It sounds like it started a holiday party attended by county employees in a rented conference room. Which would make the event largely unknown to the outside public.

319 million people, so that's 1 in a million for the year, and that's IF those numbers aren't a bit "fudged" for "politicize" purposes. Yup, time to disarm the other 318,999,649 of us. For the children.

And actually, Slick, most of those "mass shootings" were done by moslems or gang related. They are counting drive by shootings by gang bangers as "mass shootings."

And we all know if it's "gang related" or done by "moslems" it doesn't actually count.

My statement was largely in jest, but there is a deeper point there. I'm certainly not the type to say that America needs a nationwide gun ban or anything like that, having owned firearms myself in the past; I'm just fresh off of a thanksgiving weekend where my ex-military uncle earnestly tried to convince me over a few beers that Sandy Hook, Aurora, etc were perpetrated by agents of the government as part of some scheme to repeal the second amendment or some crap. Let's just say that we didn't see eye to eye; unfortunately there are a LOT of people that actually, honestly believe that nonsense.

In reply to pointofdeparture:

There are some that believe that E36 M3, just like there are some that believe that you can buy all the guns at a gun show and never be subjected a background check....

I still stand firm that the media attention given to these events is fueling this crap.
