Aurora Colorado Massacre (Page 4) Azathoth: He is in plain clothes, but he is an employee. Perhaps that cat shouldn't be let out of the bag. Maybe it is not enough if something happens faster than the attendant can react. Say...like a running teen for example. It's not my system, though. I haven't been there to see it carried out. fairgojustsaying: The report also said the madman bought 6000 rounds of ammunition, if he bought that amount in one hit or not is not clear yet,that should have set off alarm bells, 6000 rounds, unbelievable. Why did he booby trap his apartment? That hasn't been made clear either, more casualties would have been added but he, for some reason told the authorities that information, according to reports. This is all from the local news station here in Darwin. Azathoth: Honestly, it isn't an anomaly for Americans to buy that much ammo...especially in states considered good hunting locations (like Colorado and my state of Tennessee, to mention a couple). Many, many moons ago, I worked at a Wal-Mart and saw carts of ammo with a rifle or shotgun sitting along side on several occassions. This policy may have changed lately, I'm not 100% sure. It appeared that saying it was for target practice got the buyers off the hook. Plus, the clerks really didn't ask or even care most if the time. I am not completely sure of all the gun laws and regulations in Colorado, though. I should look into that. (Edited by Azathoth) davidk14: . And.... In all theaters across the country....Metal detectors...and...and....take your shoes off....and....and...x-ray machines....and..and...DHS employees....and..and...US Marshals in the audience...and...and...cavity searches... . Coffrey: I actually agree with david here on the security measures. This shouldn't a "after the shoe bomber, now we all have to take off our shoes" moment. How often would something like this happen? Granted, for the time being to prevent copycats, sure .But then it just needs to go the fuck away. Karma: Guns don’t kill people. People who say “Guns don’t kill people” kill people. With their guns. Sarcastic Dots: Jim Gordon: What about escalation? Batman: Escalation? Jim Gordon: We start carrying semi automatics, they buy automatics, we start wearing Kevlar, they buy armor piercing rounds, and *you're* wearing a mask and jumping off rooftops. take this guy: armed robbery, double homicide. Got a taste for the theatrical, like you. Leaves a calling card.

What was he wearing ? what was she thinking ? what was that person eating ? how did you feel ? what did you see ? lets call him scumbag, loser, moron. Ever single news station is all over this and I can't get to hear about anything else in the world, it is terrible, but I don't want to hear about it 24 hours a goddamn day. (Edited by Hyenablood) Stewart75: That's what you do when you don't wanna "hear about it"............. you write some dumb post about not wanting to hear about it............... Hyenablood: and then that's when troll steward comes along and puts in her useless, attention - seeking post in response to someone else's, only because she feels all alone. | Off Topic Chat Room Similar Conversations |
