Quoting: Anonymous Coward 63305732 The gun in the shooters pix is a ruger 10/22. It's a 22lr. Factory mags are 10 and 25 rd. capacity. [link to www.ruger.com] Probably what he used. If it was an "Assault Rifle" The MSM would be all over it. . "Don't do anything that affects anything. Unless it turns out you were supposed to do it, in which case for the love of God. Don't not do it!" |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 16178844 United States10/02/2015 01:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "A heroic student charged at the Oregon college shooter and was shot seven times as he tried to save his classmates, his family said. Quoting: davvi Army veteran Chris Mintz, 30, was taken to hospital following the massacre at Umpqua Community College on Thursday morning. His cousin Derek Bourgeois told DailyMail.com that Mintz faced Chris Harper-Mercer, 26, who killed at least 10 people at the school in Roseburg." [link to www.dailymail.co.uk] This and other heroes from yesterday is who the media should be concentrating on, but they won't. This is the ultimate sacrifice one can do. I probably would have done the same. I am just saddened that he wasn't able to dodge those sequence of events and overtake the shooter. To the family....I am sorry for your loss. |

Quoting: davvi Yesterday was Chris' sons 6th birthday and I am grateful that his son didn't lose his hero father on his birthday.  I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw. We must all realize a sink a chair and a pillow are all luxuries of home and a soldiers helmet takes the place of all three. |

I mean, you could conceal carry secretly without anybody noticing, right? I would just do it. If anything happens like this event, and you save the day, so what are they going to do? Sue you? I don't think so. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14288611 Wondered the same thing but then heard the opening of buck sexton's show and he said there are federal laws governing this and mandated jail time so it's nothing to fool around with. Had a friend who went to college in DC. The first thing they were told at their first student meeting was that the laws of DC are not normal laws, everything in DC is considered a federal crime so they were told they had to be on their best behavior. |
