The best example is the FCC.

The FCC allows an operator to own/possess whatever the hell kind of transceiver he or she wants. It is the manner in which said transceiver is used that is subject to regulation. So basically, if you don't break the law with it, party on.

The FCC plays by big boy rules, and the community of licensed operators are pretty much self-policing. It's amazing what happens when you're treated like an adult.

When it comes to guns, well, we all know how that works.

I am of the opinion that their names should never be used, and instead replaced with the term, "Cross-eyed Slobbering Psychopath".

"In other news, another Cross-eyed Slobbering Psychopath has gone on a rampage."

But then, today, the Cross-eyed Slobbering Psychopaths Association would be lawyering up over micro-aggressions...

In a more civilized world, we would accept tragedy for what it is, grieve, and be better people because of it.

I feel poorly for them, I do. But, they are dead. I, we, are alive and don't deserve to be held accountable for something we didn't do.

The VPC is already on the attack:


“Another horrifying act of gun violence in America. While we don’t know the facts yet, we know all too well the devastating result: a shooter who was able inflict horrific lethal violence because of our nation’s unique inability to address our ongoing gun crisis. Lives are lost, families are devastated, and communities are scarred, yet for America’s firearms industry and gun lobby it’s business as usual. Until those who support a sane national gun policy make their voices heard, such horrific events will continue to define our country.”

It is horrible that we have to go on the defensive before the families are notified, but we weren't the ones to started this quick response. Progressives, convinced that their misrepresentation of facts was correct and exasperated that people would look at their failed solutions and balk when asked for more stupidity, have decided to bum-rush the issue by instantly calling for more restrictions- usually on inanimate objects- as if that is the problem.

We have a society that doesn't value life but does value celebrity- the less based on achievement the better. That is where these kooks get the ability to hide in our midsts with out being seen as outliers.

These families lost their loved ones because Progressives decided to go after metal boxes and bayonet lugs rather than realize that their push for a valueless society that scoffs at the value of human life is the true cause. But that it too difficult to put into a law, and would force them to realize the dehumanizing aspects of their agenda. Throw in the collectivist mentality that security is a public not a private right and you get to where we are. FUBAR'd.

I don't think virginity is the biggest issue but maturity.

The internet gives random people a voice. Remember Taxi Driver?
If you saw it pre-internet boom, you know off the bat, dude is a froot loop. Misguided and awkward.

I don't think getting these guys laid would change anything.
Because now they shoot people up and have to commit suicide usually or get zapped by the police.

If they survive, it'll be a big regret and with age (especially in prison) they'll see it was a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
It didn't make their lives better, or fuller. It didn't give them a voice aside from "just another wacko".

Getting between a girls legs won't solve your problem. You catch something Ajax won't cure or now, congrats, you're a baby daddy. Weee.

So on to the TTPs and lessons learned...

Apparently he managed to kill a lot of people in a short amount of time. Some were wondering how he accomplished that.

Someone in the 4chan thread advised him to tell everyone he was taking hostages and to pack into a corner. Then shoot them all. That seems to make sense given the account of one shot followed by a whole lot about ten seconds later. The first shot could have been a "warning"/"may i have your attention" shot, followed by the instructions to get into the corner.

We here at m4c think a lot about TTPs. It's hard to get into the mind of a psychopath to figure out possible ways they might act. But if this is proven to be how it went down, what's the proper response? Teach our kids to rush anyone with a weapon, even if that person says he's only taking hostages or only wants your wallet or something?

He's spewing a bunch of lies and bullshit. It is pushing my blood pressure through the roof.

He claims that most gun owners want common sense gun laws, that OUR response as "gun owners" that less gun laws is routine and we know it's false.

He said that states with the most strict gun laws have the fewest gun deaths. And the states with the most lax laws have the most fun deaths.

"Seat belt laws save lives- the notion that gun violence is different; that our freedom and our constitution prohibits any modest regulation of how we use a deadly weapon she. Their are law abiding gun owners across the country who hunt and prove t their families under such regulation- doesn't make sense."

Yes, it was underneath a yellow #2 evidence tag.

Obama says that we have laws to wear seatbelts because it saves lives, and thus we need more gun laws. Want Americans to convince their lawmakers to change the laws in support of stricter gun laws. He vows to bring up this point every time there is a mass shooting.

According to this Local report: The gunman who opened fire at Umpqua Community College in Oregon asked victims to state their religion before opening fire, according to multiple reports. An 18-year-old student told the News-Review newspaper that the gunman, after shooting her teacher in the head through a window, told people to get on the ground. He then told people to stand up and state their religion before opening fire. Twitter user @BodhiLooney, who said her grandma was at the school, said the shooter asked people if they were Christian. “If they said yes, then they were shot in the head,” she wrote. “If they said no, or didn’t answer, they were shot in the legs.”

Found at: http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2015/10/01/oregon-community-college-shooting-pre-planned-act-of-jihad-warning-posted-yesterday/

Have to see if this is confirmed by other witnesses. Doesn't indicate whether the shooter might be of another religion or just against religion generally, and Christians in particular. I could imagine either one.

Common sense gun laws are buy what you can afford and if you commit murder then you get charged with murder.


The UK and Australia really aren't good examples because they are subjects. We are, like it or not, citizens. We have rights.

The UK and AUS don't have it down as a right. We do.

20 dead college kids, God rest their souls, shouldn't affect millions of other people.

This happened in Oregon. Not where I live.
If we want low blows, I could ask Barry why he doesn't skin the asses of the NAACP or Jesse Jackson whenever a black person commits a crime. The NAACP spent decades forwarding civil rights and ending Jim Crow that, sad to say, did curb a lot of black crime. Or alleged black crime. But those people, black or not, had rights which as citizens are to be respected and protected.

So...think about that when the NRA gets brought up as a "reason" for these shootings and gun violence.

They are both civil rights organizations. So using their logic we should do a gun ban AND redo Jim Crow.

You know....for safety and freedom. Sounds a little different when you turn it around.

Or...we could blame the criminal and get on with our lives.

radical islam and progressives/marxists have a common enemy - western culture, individual rights, etc. Thats why the media tries so hard to bend over backwards and apologize for muslims. Just look at the difference in coverage in the Charlie Hebdo France attack vs the Garland Pam Geller attack. They had the gall to blame Pam Geller and said she "asked for it" I knew there was something fishy when its been this long and they havent IDed the shooter. It will not fit the narrative

Let me explain why mass shooters are virgins:

Because when I was 18-34, I only gave a shit about one thing, hot chicks, talking to hot chicks, hanging with hot chicks, debating on which hot chicks to have slumber parties with, trying not to need Pennicillin for having slumber parties with hot chicks, trying to one-up my buddies' hot chicks, etc, etc, etc.

If the victim had a valid firearms license/permit, and had, in writing, a refusal on the part of the University to allow exercise of Constititionally-afforded rights, you would have a goddamned fantastic case.

You folks want to win the war? That's how you do it.

If you are in College, or have a loved one who is in College, write the school a letter asking for permission to carry on campus. They will, of course, tell you, not just no, but, "hell no."

You now have a smoking gun, and a solid basis for a case should anything happen.

When is the NRA going to get off their asses and go on the offensive? RUn the 80/20 on gun deaths and you come back with suicides and gang violence. Mass shooters are like unicorns. There are more Bigfoot incidents than AS each year.

Push the ball back into their laps. Go after the big city mayors and their endemic and tragic violence that takes more lives today and everyday than AS. The other half is suicides. The common theme is a lack of respect for your own life and for others. We have a violent culture and that is why we have so many deaths. If guns caused these deaths, there wouldn't be anyone alive. We have more guns than people.

It's like the problem with the Pope. Yes, poverty is a problem but the answer isn't becoming more like the countries that these people are fleeing.

Black Lives Matter? It seems only Some Black Deaths Matter.

I feel like I am taking crazy pills. Crazy people do crazy things and we blame inanimate objects. The blood of these kids is on the Progressives hands who instead of doing the right thing, they do the easy thing.

Stop the culture of death and you stop the killing.

Banning guns and magazines is like the muslims trying to stop impure thoughts by putting their women in Burqas. How about teaching people to control their base urges.

That is hard. There is no govt program for it that you can charge for and keep an entire class of people dependant on the govt, so that won't be what Progressives push for.

Oops, forgot to include sources for that one.

Guns per 100 people: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/special/nation/gun-homicides-ownership/table/
Note, this is NOT gun ownership rate. This is total number of guns vs total number of people. The total ownership % for, say, the US is something around 50-60%, not 89%.

Intentional homicide rate: https://stats.unodc.org/webcontent/dcm.uploads/downloads/Homicide_counts_and_rates_2000_2013.xlsx
Not every country has an up-to-date rate, so the most recent year on record is used. I actually used the 2012 spreadsheet, so I'll need to update it eventually with 2013 numbers. But as teh Washington Post gun ownership link was created in 2012, the numbers depict the same year so it's more accurate. Interestingly, the WP data is derived in part from the same UNODC study.

Also remember, this chart is intentional homicide/murder rate, not "gun-related murder".

Well FWIW it looks like exactly 1cm, so probably .40S&W.

The blue line on the left is 1cm according to the ruler, and I copy-pasted it and moved it to the case mouth and it matched up exactly. Due to perspective and because there is such a small difference between 9mm and .40 and between .40 and .45ACP, I could be completely wrong.

We here at m4c think a lot about TTPs. It's hard to get into the mind of a psychopath to figure out possible ways they might act. But if this is proven to be how it went down, what's the proper response? Teach our kids to rush anyone with a weapon, even if that person says he's only taking hostages or only wants your wallet or something?

9-11 was just a "hijacking" and if everyone cooperates, everything will be fine.

Tough call. There is always the "can't determine" variable.

Take Columbine, they were definitely killing people. But at the same time, they let some people go. That's not a well known fact. Sometimes talking works, sometimes nothing is going to work. With the Aurora shooter, I don't think anything anyone said would have changed anything.

With religious terrorists, you probably should assume the worst.

But with crazy people, there is no bigger wild card. The hard part is determining exactly what you are dealing with in the shortest amount of time afforded to you.

I don't think there is a single set of reliable rules that will always improve your odds. The only constant seems to be "anything you do can get you killed, including nothing."

He was asking what should be taught to children in such situations. Not all of them are qualified to "smash" their attacker. Some of them will have a better chance hiding next to the toilets. I wouldn't want the freshmen members of the chess club to sacrifice themselves in a human wave attack if they aren't capable of bringing down the shooter.

But if there were some physically capable individuals with ability and opportunity to bring it to an end, then that is probably the best "Oh Shit" plan.

Common sense gun laws are buy what you can afford and if you commit murder then you get charged with murder.


The UK and Australia really aren't good examples because they are subjects. We are, like it or not, citizens. We have rights.

The UK and AUS don't have it down as a right. We do.

20 dead college kids, God rest their souls, shouldn't affect millions of other people.

This happened in Oregon. Not where I live.
If we want low blows, I could ask Barry why he doesn't skin the asses of the NAACP or Jesse Jackson whenever a black person commits a crime. The NAACP spent decades forwarding civil rights and ending Jim Crow that, sad to say, did curb a lot of black crime. Or alleged black crime. But those people, black or not, had rights which as citizens are to be respected and protected.

So...think about that when the NRA gets brought up as a "reason" for these shootings and gun violence.

They are both civil rights organizations. So using their logic we should do a gun ban AND redo Jim Crow.

You know....for safety and freedom. Sounds a little different when you turn it around.

Or...we could blame the criminal and get on with our lives.

Bolded part isn't true.

British subjects (to include Aussies) have the right to keep and bear arms.

Except as regulated by Parliament (which is covered by the clause of what would be their Constitutions that includes the RKBA).

Just saying: The only thing that makes our RKBA different than theirs is that ours is not subject to Congressional regulation.

Hmm. I won't argue technicality but every commonwealth person I ever spoke to who was a shooter stated outright that it was a privilege at the pleasure of tge government. This includes Canada.

That essentially they can rewrite the laws on a whim or whatever. Like Canadas Swiss PE90 fiasco which took like 3 years to sort out.

Sort of like BATFE making 'decisions' and 'regulations' from a cubicle. I. E. The barrel ban, 5.45 ban, etc blah.

Whatever, we have a stronger precedent that this is an individual right and no gun bans will matter in the big picture.

A guy snaps because he can't get laid or whatever. Sorry about that but....there are plenty of gun related dope and gang murders in Chicago and so forth. Nobody cares.

In the final few months of the current administration, how much agenda can actually get pushed through? Can Obama accomplish any significant policy change before he leaves office? These are serious questions, because I am unsure of the time frame for the whole process re: CIC demands policy change, bills being introduced and then voting the bills into law. We are hearing the same old rhetoric and emotion baiting tactics to stir up public outcry, but I wonder what is really happening behind the scenes in BATFE and Congress to enact some permanent changes that will really restrict RKBA. For example, is this event going to be the greenlight to put 41p on the fast track to approval? What kind of executive orders will Obama create this time?

I really need some better citing on this. There had to be some vets on campus. That some of them were carrying wouldn't surprise me. That they would let an admin person stop them seems a bit outside what I'd think.

AS like this happen infrequently, but they are not some aberration. They are just a subset of the group of people that commit suicide, often with a gun, but here they decide to take some people first before they whack themselves or die by cop.

On a serious note: prayers to the family.

TOS has a member saying a good friend of theirs rushed the PODS but was hit five times. Brietbart has an interview of a CCW vet that was 200 yards away but was too late. (Can't seem to find it now).

I'm afraid these incidents are going to get more frequent. Just going by reports and posts, this PODS was taking in and research other "mass" shooting incidents and tried to get his infamous street cred for the media. His social life, if the posts and reporting is correct, was zilch, same with PODS in California that shot four, stabbed two and ran over more.

The biggest factor, however, that really concerns me the most: they have all pretty much been Millennials. Forget the psych drugs and their BS manifestos, the Millennial part should be the big elephant in the room.

Obama says that we have laws to wear seatbelts because it saves lives, and thus we need more gun laws. Want Americans to convince their lawmakers to change the laws in support of stricter gun laws. He vows to bring up this point every time there is a mass shooting.

When I heard him say that I thought to myself; "Gee I wonder how many more of these they have planned before he leaves office".

And no, I'm not joking.

Do we now assume you are about to be executed no matter what happens, even though a lot of armed robberies don't actually end with death?

Here is some light reading for you . . .


Why Surrender Is Never an Option

The first phase of surrender is failing to be armed, trained and committed to fight. We are prepared to surrender when we are unprepared to resist.

The second phase of surrender is failing to be alert. You must see trouble coming in order to have time to respond. The warning may be less than one second but it will be there and it must be recognized and acted upon immediately.

The Third phase of surrender is giving up your weapons.

The last phase of surrender is up to the monsters who have taken control of your life and perhaps the lives of your loved ones. The last phase of surrender is out of your hands.

Surrender during war

During the American Revolution 12,000 Colonists captured by the British died in captivity on prison ships, while only 8,000 died in battle. Had the 12,000 who surrendered continued to fight many would have survived and they could have done great damage to the British and likely shortened the war.

Civil War prisoners were treated so badly that some 50,000 died in captivity. More Americans have been killed by Americans than by any foreign army in any war. Six hundred eighteen thousand Americans died in the Civil War.

As many as 18,000 captured American and Pilipino prisoners died or were murdered at the hands of the Japanese during the six days of the “Bataan Death March.” Had most of these soldiers slipped into the jungle and fought as guerrillas they could have tied up elements of the Japanese Army for months or years and perhaps more of them would have survived the war.

Of the Americans who actually reached Japanese prison camps during the war, nearly 50,000 died in captivity. That is more than 10 percent of all the American military deaths in the entire war in both the Pacific and European theaters combined.

In addition to the 50,000 captured Americans who died in Japanese prison camps an additional 20,000 were murdered before reaching a prison camp. If those 70,000 Americans had continued to fight, they could have provided time for the United States to build and maneuver its forces, perhaps shortening the war and saving even more lives. Some of them would have likely survived the war. If they had all died in battle their fate would have been no worse.

During the early stages of the “Battle of the Bulge” American soldiers were massacred by the German troops who captured them.

During the Vietnam conflict many American Prisoners Of War were tortured daily for years by the Communist North Vietnamese. Many Americans died during the process. Only Officers (Airmen) held in North Vietnam were ever repatriated. Enlisted Americans captured in South Viet Nam were routinely tortured, mutilated and murdered by the Communists. As a combat soldier and knowing my fate should I be captured, I was committed to fighting to the death. I made specific plans to force the enemy to kill me rather than allow myself to be captured.

In recent years, American troops captured by Islamic terrorists groups have virtually all been tortured and murdered in gruesome fashion. If I were fighting in the Middle East, I would make a similar vow and plan to fight to the death. Under no circumstances would I allow myself to be captured by our Islamic enemies.

Death by Government

RJ Rummel, who wrote the book, “Death by Government” states that prior to the 20th Century; 170 million civilians were murdered by their own governments. Historians tell us that during the 20th Century perhaps as many as 200 million civilians were murdered by their own governments.

Some of the Nations where the mass murder of civilians occurred during the 20th Century include Russia, Ukraine, Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, The Congo, Uganda, Armenia, Viet Nam, Cambodia, Nigeria, Laos, China, Cuba, Manchuria, Iraq, Iran, Biafra, Rwanda and many others. The slaughter of civilians by governments appears to be as common as not.

Most of these slaughters were only made possible by disarming the victims before killing them. Had these people resisted, their fate would have been no worse and perhaps better. Resistance is much more difficult after the government has already taken the means of resistance away from the people. Planned genocide has been the primary reason for weapon confiscation throughout history.

Jews and others who surrendered to the Nazis were murdered in slave labor camps by the millions. Had all the Jews in Europe resisted when the Nazis started rounding them up they could have made the Nazis pay an enormous price for the holocaust. The fact that Hitler confiscated guns in 1936 made resistance far less feasible.

Had the Jews in Germany resisted, the outcome may have been the same but the world would have learned about the holocaust years earlier and may have intervened. Most people would prefer to die fighting and trying to kill their oppressor, than be taken off to a death camp and starved to death or murdered in a gas chamber.

William Ayers, former leader of the Terrorist organization “The Weather Underground,” and close friend of Barack Obama, told his followers in the Weather Underground, “When we (Communist Revolutionaries) take over the United States, we will have to kill 25 million Americans.” He was referring to those who would never submit to a Communist takeover. Those who would refuse to deny and reject the Constitution would have to be murdered. If this sounds impossible, remember that Genocide by Government was the leading cause of death in the last Century.

Surrendering to Criminals

The “Onion Field Murder” in California was a wake-up call to Law Enforcement Officers everywhere. On March 9, 1963, two LAPD Officers were taken prisoner by two criminals. The Officers submitted to capture and gave up their weapons.

They were driven to an onion field outside of Bakersfield.

One Officer was murdered while the other Officer managed to escape in a hail of gunfire. The surviving Officer suffered a serious psychological case, having been unable to save his partner. As a result of this incident, the LAPD policy became, “You will fight no matter how bad things are.” “You will never ever surrender your weapons or yourself to a criminal.”

Consider the Ogden, Utah record store murders. Read the book if you do not know the story. The manner in which the criminals murdered their young victims cannot be described here. Resistance might have been futile. Compliance was definitely and absolutely futile.

The courts in this country have ruled that the police have no legal obligation to protect anyone. Why do Law Enforcement Officials always tell civilians not to resist a criminal, while they tell their Officers to always resist and never surrender? Police administrators fear being sued by a civilian victim who gets hurt resisting. Furthermore, the police, like all government agencies derive their power by fostering dependence.

According to Professor John Lott’s study on the relationship between guns and crime, a victim who resists with a firearm is less likely to be hurt or killed than a victim who cooperates with his attacker. His book is titled “More Guns, Less Crime.”

The Doctor and his family in Connecticut complied and cooperated, meeting every demand of the home invasion robbers to whom they had surrendered. The Doctors wife and daughters were tortured, raped, doused with gasoline and burned alive. How did surrender and cooperation work out for them?

In another home invasion robbery, a kindly couple with 9 adopted, “special needs” children, surrendered to the robbers. The victims opened their safe and did not resist in any way. When the robbers where finished ransacking the home and terrifying the children, they shot both parents in the head several times before leaving. How did surrender and complete cooperation work out for them?

Handing over your life by surrendering to someone who is in the process of committing a violent crime against you is a form of suicide. Some survive but many do not. The monster gets to decide for you.
We have heard brutalized victims say, “The robber said that he would not hurt us if we cooperated.” Why would you believe anything that someone who is committing a crime against you says? He will be lying if he speaks. As we say in law enforcement, “If a criminal’s lips are moving while he is speaking, he is lying.” Criminals by definition are dishonest and should never be trusted or believed.

You have no doubt heard friends say, I would not resist a criminal, after all why would he kill me? This is stupid and naive. In law enforcement, we call these people “Victims by Choice” (VBC). There could be a long list of reasons why a criminal would kill you despite your cooperation.

You may be of a different race, thus a different tribe. Only members of his tribe are actually human in his mind. He may feel hatred toward you because you have more than he does. Gratification from being in a position of total power is reason enough for some.

Criminals are sometimes members of a Satanic Cult who worship death such as the “Night Stalker” in California. Eliminating a potential witness is often cited as a reason to kill a victim. Sometimes criminals simply enjoy causing suffering and death. There are people who are in fact, pure evil. I have heard criminals say, “I killed her just to watch her die.”

A victim who begs for mercy can give his attacker a tremendous feeling of power which many criminals seem to enjoy. You cannot expect mercy from someone who does not know what mercy is.

Resist!

We each have a duty to ourselves, our loved ones, our neighbors, our community, our city, our state and our country to resist criminals. Reasoning with a thug who believes that his failures are because of people just like you is not likely to be helpful. Pleading with a terrorist who has been taught from birth that his salvation depends on murdering people like you is a doomed plan. Resist!

Resist! His gun may not be real. After you are tied up it will not matter. His gun may not be loaded. After you are tied up it will not matter. He may not know how to operate his gun. After you are tied up it will not matter. Resist!

Statistically if you run and your assailant shoots at you he will miss. Statistically if you run and he shoots and hits you, you will not die. Bad guys shooting at the police miss 90 percent of the time. The odds are on your side. Better to die fighting in place than to be tied up, doused with gasoline and burned alive. There are things worse than death. Surrender to a criminal or a terrorist and you will learn what they are. Resist!

If you resist with a commitment to win you may well prevail, especially if you are armed and trained. If you lose it is still better to die fighting in place than to be taken prisoner and have your head cut off with a dull knife while your screams gurgle through your own blood as we have witnessed on numerous videos from the Middle East, brought to us by the “Islamic practitioners of peace.”

Some who have refused to surrender.

History is filled with brave people who refused to surrender. Some of these men and woman have won their battles despite what seemed to be insurmountable odds. Others have gone down fighting and avoided being tortured to death. Some fought to the death to help or save others. Many have fought to the death for an idea or a belief.

When General Santa Ana (also the President of Mexico at the time) ordered 180 “Texacans” to surrender the Alamo, Col. Travis answered with “a cannon shot and a rebel yell.” Eventually General Santa Ana was able to build his troop strength to ten thousand. The Mexicans then swarmed the defenders and killed them all.

The battle of the Alamo delayed the Mexican Army long enough for
Sam Huston to build his Texacan Army, which met and defeated the Mexican Army and captured General Santa Ana. General Santa Ana traded Texas for his life and the sacrifices of the Alamo defenders changed history.

Frank Luke was a heroic aviator in WWI. Shot down and wounded he refused to surrender when confronted by a German patrol. He killed 4 German soldiers with his 1911 Pistol before being killed. Luke was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor.

When his unit was pinned down by German Machine Guns and all of the Officers and non commissioned officers in his company were killed or wounded, Alvin York never considered surrendering. Instead, he attacked hundreds of German soldiers killing about 25 with his rifle and pistol and then captured 132 others by himself!

Most of the Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto (Poland) surrendered to the German Army. They were taken off to death camps and murdered. Between 400 and 1,000 Jews refused to surrender and armed with only a few pistols, revolvers and rifles, they held off the German Army for three months before dying in battle.

During the “Battle of the Bulge,” the 101st Airborne was surrounded by the German Army and ordered to surrender. Faced with overwhelming odds, the Commanding Officer of the 101st sent this reply to the Germans. “Nuts.” The Americans refused to surrender and they stopped the German advance. Most of the Americans troops survived.

On Sept 2, 2010, 40 armed criminals took over and robbed a train in India. Some of the robbers had guns, others used knives and clubs. When they began to disrobe an 18 year old girl for the purpose of gang raping her, one of the passengers decided to fight. He was a 35 year old retired Gurkha soldier. He drew his Khukasri Knife and attacked the 40 robbers. He killed three of the robbers and wounded 8 more despite his being wounded in this 20 minute fight. The remaining criminals fled for their lives leaving their stolen loot and eleven comrades dead or wounded on the floor of the train. The eight wounded robbers were arrested.

How does one man defeat 40? How does he summon the courage to fight such odds? He utilized all of the Principles of Personal Defense: Alertness, Decisiveness, Aggressiveness, Speed, Coolness, Ruthlessness, and Surprise. He was skilled in the use of his weapon. Most importantly, He refused to be a victim and allow evil to triumph!

If this one inspirational soldier can defeat 40 opponents using his knife, it would seem that we should all be able to defeat a group of armed criminals by using our firearms if we are professionally trained as was this heroic Gurkha soldier.

Final thoughts

How will you respond if you are confronted by evil as some of us have been in the past and some of us will be in the future? If you have not decided ahead of time what you will do, you will likely do nothing. Those who fight back often win and survive. Those who surrender never win and often die a horrible death. Have you made your decision? Remember, no decision is a decision to do nothing.

Perhaps an AR was used.


Multiple law enforcement sources told NBC News that four weapons were recovered from the scene in Roseburg, in the southwest corner of the state about 60 miles south of Eugene — three handguns and a long gun similar to an AR-style rifle. Investigators also found several magazines for 5.56mm ammunition and a ballistics vest, one of the sources said.

There is no such thing as a "gun-free zone."

Per our legislature, yes....per criminals, they DGAF.

Interestingly enough, I briefly looked at the Gun-Free School Zone Act of 1990 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun-Free_School_Zones_Act_of_1990).


The Gun-Free School Zones Act (GFSZA) is a federal United States law that prohibits any unauthorized individual from knowingly possessing a firearm at a place that the individual knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(25).

It was introduced in the U.S. Senate in October 1990 by Joseph R. Biden and signed into law in November 1990 by George H. W. Bush.

I believe that this piece of legislation is just more proof that firearm restrictions lead to more innocent people succumbing to the actions of deranged individuals. Laws do not apply to criminals.

Didn't some of this get whacked because the gun free zone extended something like 500 yards from school and in cities you'd wouldn't be able to drive past with a gun- which isn't going to work since schools are everywhere. I think it also applies to just public schools, but I may confusing that with the state laws.

As with immigration, I thought only feds could enforce federal law ;)

I think that is the key to winning over people to our side. You might not ever get thru to a mantra-Progressive, but calmly and factually pointing out how literally CRAZY the Blomberg position is on guns will sway people not fully engaged. You guys might not be able to tell, but I can get pretty dismissive with pointed humor. A some humor with some facts to point out the stupidity of the Progressive position on guns can go a long way.

Now CNN is grilling the sherrif for opposing gun control legislation a few years ago, I'm guessing in the wake of Sandyhook. They just had him on screen in a current time interview, ago slamming him for not changing his stance. The sherrif maintains his concern is dealing with this situation, and not discussing policy. CNN is throwing out statistics about Sandyhook and 87000+ Americans killed by gun violence since Sandyhook. Let's ignore that the bulk of those deaths ARE NOT mass shootings.

I think these mass shootings are actually having the opposite effect than what the anti-gunners want. In the past year, I've seen more first time gun buyers than I have in my 5 years in gun sales. It's always the same story: "I used to hate guns. But now I see all these mass shooting and I want to defend myself if something happened and I was there." Typically, they end up getting a pistol, and a few weeks later, either a shotgun or an AR.

There are people out there who get it and who have woken up.

I don't think 'millenial' is the biggest reason. Fact is...we're getting older and younger people are growing up.

Like the Stockton shooting, or the Long Island shooting. Lare 80s, early 90s. Austin Clocktower guy was in the 60s and a school shooter.

The problem is simple.....we have bad eggs in society. We try to ignore it, but we do. Being a Virgin isn't their problem nor is being a loner or whatever. Those, if anything, are symptoms.

Some people just ain't worth a damn and figure that doing something outrageous is this big act of revenge.

The one intelligent thing I heard today was from the mother of a Sandyhook child saying words to the effect that we as society need to examine the signs and symptoms of these deranged people. I say again what I said after Sandyhook, Tucson and Aurora: it is not a gun problem, it is a mental health problem coupled with a 'none of my business/concern' mentality. People who were familiar with the shooters knew something was wrong, but either ignored it or felt they shouldn't interfere with the lives of others, even when they are clearly not right in the head.

On a side note, as I was in the hotel lobby I overheard a conversion re: mass shootings being 'part of our culture that just needs to run its course before we figure out what to do'.

Authorities told reporters that the shooter had amassed 13 weapons — all purchased legally by either him or a family member from a federal gun dealer.

So much for UBCs, which are the means to confiscation.


The liberal's response to learning the guns were bought legally is, we need to confiscate guns and lock up the mentally ill.

We spent 50 years emptying asylums, making it impossible to commit people and setting up a system where drs are harshly punished for revealing medical information to anyone, even when the person is dangerous and then there's shock when the nuts we used to lock up start running wild...

The mentally ill are more likely to be victims of violence than to perpetrate violence. Locking up people is not the solution, and is morally wrong.

What's the solution? I submit to you the following, restore our relationship with our Judeo-Christian God, including His presence in our schools; cease the fight against the traditional family; encourage and support biological parents remaining married; encourage parents, especially fathers, to be present in the home, nurturing their children; embrace all stages of human life; encourage religious liberty; and speak out against sin, for it surely will destroy this great nation.

And yet invariably when someone kills a pile of kindergarteners, they're suffering from some sort of mental illness. We place people in these prohibited person classes like it's a magic talisman that will keep them from doing harm. If the person is so dangerous they can't be trusted with a gun, then they should not be walking the streets.

Basically the way I see it we have 3 options:

1. Accept the fact that some kook is going to shoot up a place every so often.
2. Lock up the dangerous and keep them there.
3. Give up our rights and accept a complete "turn them all in" ban.

3 is unacceptable because of the gross violation of liberty of all 300 million Americans. Neither 1 or 2 are good choices but if I've got to choose one I think I'd prefer locking up the dangerous to dead bodies, but hey that's just me.

The Gun-Free School Zones Act (GFSZA) is a federal United States law that prohibits any unauthorized individual from knowingly possessing a firearm at a place that the individual knows, or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone as defined by 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(25).

I had thought "gun free" zone status was a state thing as different states have different laws on that one. Can anyone clarify on that?

GFSZA provides an exception for people holding a CCW license in the state the permit was issued in (not the same as reciprocity). States can make their own laws whether to disallow CCW holders from carrying in schools.

Interestingly, LEOSA does not and if you are within 1000 feet of a school carrying under LEOSA only you can be prosecuted

The one intelligent thing I heard today was from the mother of a Sandyhook child saying words to the effect that we as society need to examine the signs and symptoms of these deranged people. I say again what I said after Sandyhook, Tucson and Aurora: it is not a gun problem, it is a mental health problem coupled with a 'none of my business/concern' mentality. People who were familiar with the shooters knew something was wrong, but either ignored it or felt they shouldn't interfere with the lives of others, even when they are clearly not right in the head.

On a side note, as I was in the hotel lobby I overheard a conversion re: mass shootings being 'part of our culture that just needs to run its course before we figure out what to do'.
WTF?? Who says this crap?

I think it is in our culture, in that we have a culture that glorifies mindless violence and we celebrate merit less notoriety. Neither party is addressing that as the cause of these problems, so until the stop going after guns and ignoring the problem, it is just going to continue.

Cops in school, CCW, UBLs, mag bans are all reactions to the problem, not addressing the crazy violent people.

There is no solution to these kinds of things that don't involve erasing some form of Liberty for the sake of temporary safety. Sorry but the truth hurts sometimes.

While our President pimps the Oregon shooting, Douglas County Sheriff John Hanlin stays strong against the folly of gun control
Via Bearing Arms

In an interview this morning on CNN’s “New Day,” Hanlin said gun control has “got to be part of the discussion” but insisted it was inappropriate for him to air his opinions the day after the shooting.

But under continued questioning, Hanlin finally said, “My position on it has not changed.” confirming he will continue to stand firm in his support of Second Amendment rights.

Just this April, he was one of the law enforcement officers to speak out againstSenate Bill 941, arguing that the law, which extended gun background checks to all gun transfers in the state, would be impossible to enforce.

“This law is not going to protect citizens of Oregon in that it is going to keep guns out of the hands of criminals,” Hamlin told legislators. “It will not do that.”

He also boldly sent a letter to Vice President Joe Biden in 2013, after the shooting at Sandy Hook. “Gun control is NOT the answer to preventing heinous crimes like school shootings,” Hanlin wrote in his letter to the VP. “Any actions against, or in disregard for our U.S. Constitution and 2nd Amendment rights by the current administration would be irresponsible and an indisputable insult to the American people.”

The OR shooter wanted to kill police (BLM connection, perhaps). Also of note is that this most recent murderer identified with past mass murderers, and romanticized their crimes. No doubt budding copy cats are paying attention to these high-profile shootings, so we probably can count on a few more before the year is over.


nvestigators said the writing portrayed the shooter as a student of past mass shootings. The gunman identified with the perpetrators of those rampages, the sources said, including Elliot Rodger, who killed six people in Santa Barbara, California, in 2014. The Oregon shooter expressed frustration that other mass killers did not take on police and vowed he would kill police along with others, law enforcement officials said.

Mass-shootings are not on the rise, but politically-driven hysteria is.


Umpqua shooting - a tragedy, not a trend


According to a careful analysis of data on mass shootings (using the widely accepted definition of at least four killed), the Congressional Research Service found that there are, on average, just over 20 incidents annually. More important, the increase in cases, if there was one at all, is negligible. Indeed, the only genuine increase is in hype and hysteria.

armed AF vet prevented from going to assist during attack

I have been trying to figure out for sure, whether or not the campus was a "gun-free (school) zone" by law, by unlawful declaration by the college, or if it was just assumed to be. There has been conflicting information both ways. Here are a few resources that I have found.

Oregon state law allows concealed carry, on college campus, with appropriate license.


In September 2011, the Oregon Court of Appeals overturned the longstanding Oregon University System’s ban of guns on campuses, allowing those with permits to carry concealed guns on Oregon campuses. The lawsuit was the result of a student who was suspended in 2009 for carrying a handgun with a permit on Western Oregon University’s campus. The ruling states that the university system overstepped its authority by issuing the ban, because state law dictates that only the legislature can regulate the use, sale and possession of firearms. The Oregon University System decided not to appeal the ruling, but states it does have the authority to keep internal policies banning guns from specific areas on campus. In March 2012, Oregon’s state board of higher education unanimously approved a policy banning guns from classrooms, buildings, dormitories, and events.
http://www.ncsl.org/research/education/guns-on-campus-campus-action.aspx

Umpqua Community College prohibits concealed carry on campus without written authorization, according to 721.3.19 from the UCC Student Code of Conduct.


Possession or use, without written authorization, of firearms, explosives, dangerous chemicals, substances, or any other weapons or destructive devices that are designed to or readily capable of causing physical injury, on College premises, at College-sponsored or supervised functions or at functions sponsored or participated in by the College.
https://web.archive.org/web/20150317085529/http:/umpqua.edu/resources-and-services/academic/student-code-of-conduct?showall=&start=4

Apparently, the AF vet that was carrying concealed was searched by police, as were all students. He was disarmed, until his license was checked, and then he was released.

As to the question of weather or not CCW is legal on public universities in Oregon the short answer is yes, the long answer is kind of. Oregon state law says that you can but the Oregon University System has a code that says you can not. Quite a while back a student was called in as a suspicious person at Western Oregon University which led to a search of his person and the PD found a gun on him along with his license. He was arrest but immediately released and wasn't charged with anything. Shortly there after WOU pulled some shenanigans and expelled him. He applied to OSU but was denied admission. He then sued the Oregon University System and won some sort of settlement and almost all the information about the incident vanished. If I remember correctly OUS was sued again and the code on their books was repealed for a short time making CCW on campus 100% legal with no grey areas. A couple months went by and OUS re-wrote the code shuffling some words around and made campus carry grey again. So basically you could carry on campus but if you were caught you'd probably be kicked out of school and have to sue the OUS to get back in a go jump through a lot of legal hoops.

Anecdotal... I attended UNLV the past couple of years and there's lots of vets, including myself, and non-traditional (career changers) students. Frankly, I was surprised by the vast range of attending students.

Are you still in unlv?

Sheriff John Hanlin of Douglas County, OR, in charge of handling the OR shooting case, once posted a link to a Sandy Hook conspiracy video, above which he wrote, "Watch, listen and keep an open mind," perhaps suggesting it was a false flag event.


Before Douglas County, Oregon, Sheriff John Hanlin found himself answering questions about a school shooting in his backyard, he posted a link to a video raising questions about another -- the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre that left 20 children and six adults dead.

"This makes me wonder who we can trust anymore ..." Hanlin wrote on his Facebook page on January 13, 2013, above the conspiracy video link. "Watch, listen and keep an open mind."

That post has since been taken down, albeit not before many saw it.

When asked about the video Friday, Hanlin told CNN that "I know what you're referring to, but that's not a conspiracy theory that I have."

Shooter's death ruled suicide by medical examiner in press release today...

Looks like another PODS simply ended it himself when met with resistance.

The vast majority of AS are people who are committing suicide but decide to take some people with them first.

Which is exactly why people need to sack up and carry to deal with these pukes. Once they are pressed they cap themselves, saving lives. Why the wait 8 minutes for the cops to show and do it? In the meantime people are dying. These %&@$ing politicians and school administrators need to wake up to reality.

Cnn keeps running this bit about how Barry has had to talk 15 times about mass shootings. How about having headlines about the shootings in Chicago and then show an empty podium, over and over and over.

One thing I've wondered. We have the AF vet who was armed but was not allowed to go save people......

How the **** are you not allowed? If I'm at that school and some administration person told me to not go I'd tell them to go piss up a rope.

Agreed. This whole part of the story just screams Media trying to fish for something to talk about.

The dude had no intention of going.

In high stress moments rules go out the window if one is willing to act. If one isn't willing to act it's easy to say "the rules prevented me from doing so."

As to why the Obama regime and their propaganda media lapdogs are disguising the truth from the American people about this horrific act of Islamic terror against them, especially to the families of the dead and wounded, it is not known—but shouldn’t really surprise anyone as that government has been nothing but a mountain of lies for years.

Hmmm.

Too late now, but if these jackwads wanna go to Syria.....let them go. Bye. Do your shooting there. Hope a Soviet rocket or bomb obliterates you.

It really doesn't hurt my feelings if these privileged Western kids really want to go. They will find out that it really is a one way ride
Better there than here

Agreed. These scum are only prepared for a situation where it's fish in a barrel. They aren't trained. They aren't mentally or skillfully ready for an armed confrontation at all.
When they are expecting to spread fear and easily blast everyone in sight and raise up this God-like feeling in themselves, and someone confronts them shooting back, they tend to run, hide and/or paint pavement with their own brains.

The eutimes.net site seems to have a checkered history and may not be legit news source. On the past they apparently have reposted Russian propaganda etc.

So who knows what the real deal is. Just very odd how the mainstream story does not add up with the shooter. And odd links to the train heros, etc.

The same thing could be said of the vast majority of "news" and media outlets here in the U.S. Propaganda, BS, and outright lies.
