Hats off to Army Vet/student Chris Mintz who took 5-7 bullets while charging the Oregon shooter to save others.

" Chris Mintz "tried to protect some people," his aunt Sheila Brown told NBC News in a telephone interview. "We were told he did heroic things to protect some people."

She said that Mintz was shot seven times and had been in surgery since the shooting that left 10 dead, including the gunman.

Originally from Randleman, North Carolina, Mintz served about 10 years in the Army. He had just started college, Brown said. He was shot in the back, abdomen and hands, and had two broken legs, she added."

I don't think he's feeling like a hero at the moment. He got pretty eff'ed up.

These "gun free" zones just don't 100 percent work. They're just a guaranteed bastion for a body count.

I think that's this guy was just pissed off and a loner. Withdrawn. Of course all we know is from what the media is feeding us.

they do say that the one's that you should be worried about; are the silent types.

The shooter was targeting Christians. He asked them if they were a Christian and if they answered "yes" he shot them in the head and if they said no or didn't answer, he shot them in the leg.

He was born in England, moved to the USA and was living in Torrance, CA before moving to Oregon. He was a boot camp drop out. He was let go after 2 weeks for not meeting requirements. He had a fascination for mass shooters and their subsequent publicity. He reportedly graduated from a school for the mentally disturbed.

One strange coincidence is that he targeted the CC where one of the 3 Paris train heros attended school. Don't know if there were any actual links or not.

Gun control will seem like child's play when who will decide the mental stability of individuals comes to the forefront.

For me.... when somebody starts popping folks in the head after being asked if they are a Christian ...the next logical step for me is a radical muslim...period. There is no other ideal that comes to my mind. Now my confusion comes when it takes more than 2 getting popped before the next guy realizes that he either attacks and trys to live or rolls over and dies like the ones before ...

I just don't understand the thought process. Go back to 9/11 when the folks on the plane decided to fight back...we have become a land of sheep wanting to be slaughtered. JMHO. Now I get it if you cannot fight back because of a physical issue.... but if you are looking at death than what have you to loose.

The shooter is this case was a little guy... Then the Prez gets on TV and wants to have more gun laws and enforcement, never mentioning the thought that this guy could be a muslim/radical...just take the guns. I do not know the answer to this. We as a country have to many guns to collect and if you do the criminals and bad people will not turn theirs in...the answer then is to arm yourself and protect what is yours.

I know everyone has had a different life experience... I personally have been trained to take lives and to defend the weak. I am a sheep dog !


Rant over.

In my world , gun control is two in the chest and one in the head. As soon as the tree huggers figure that out , things will get better. Can you see the look on that little pricks face if he walked into a classroom of twenty and fifteen of them pulled guns? Priceless!

Nor did he mention the record 100+ Chicago (his home town) B-on-B shootings over the last 2 weekends, that would not fit his political agenda. He did however, reference himself 28 times in that 12 minute speech (averaging 3/minute).

The Obamamation said this in another article I was reading this morning (bottom of the posted article):

He said it's impossible to identify mentally ill people likely to perpetrate mass shootings ahead of time. The only thing the U.S. can do, he explained, is ensure they don't have an arsenal available "when something in them snaps."

http://www.sacbee.com/news/nation-world/national/article37435164.html#storylink=cpy

So what is he actually saying? He's saying mass gun confiscation. It's hidden but it's right in front of you.

The sicko was posting his intentions on social media and others were instructing him on how to get the highest kill rates. He even warned the other posters not to go to school the next day in the west. Where is the NSA ???

The Communist USA party is cheering BHO's attempt at massive gun grabs. BHO's gun grab attempts are consistent with others like Hitler and Stalin. Without their massive gun grabs, their subsequent despicable actions could not have been as effective as they were.

Could it be because those who determine social normality and convert their ideas into law decided they couldn't successfully eliminate alcohol by outlawing it?

This is because; according to liberals, vehicles serve a common function in everyday society. Guns do not.

You must understand the liberal mind, in order to combat it. :icon_wink:

Actually the functionality of guns in society has not changed since the west was fun. The fastest draw is still the boss. Law enforcement uses this concept.

Ah.. you just gave the anti-gun liberals ammunition.

Why should you; or a common citizen still have need for a gun then? LEO's only need gun's...

Careful what you expound upon. :nono: They'll twist it; and use it (you) as their anti-gun fodder.

That's to easy...a gun does not weigh as much as a Policeman...not sure about the fastest draw, more like the most fire power...

Dude.. you're preaching to the choir here.

What is your location?

I'm on your side. I'm pro-gun. I'm just trying to play devils advocate. :icon_wink:

And also... btw.. I live in one of the most 2nd Amendment restricting states of our country. So I KNOW what it's like to be deprived of my 2nd Amendment rights.

Thank god I will not reside in this state long term. Out of here as soon as the wife retires. :yes:

Actually I was inquiring to know if you were aware that a hand gun could be purchased in the exchange. To be quite frank I was totally surprised when a long time riding friend told me he bought his wife one in the BX. I am located in Indiana. The friend and his wife own a GL1800 my wife and I have a 13 F6B with a Lehman trike conversion.

Yes, I am aware that the PX now sells firearms.

Fort Meade opened a gun store. I haven't been to it as of yet though; I am well stocked with weaponry; up to and including an M99 Barrett. I have no need nor desire for further growth of my arms collection at this time :shhh:

I live about 8 miles away from Baltimore; and haven't been there in about three years now. Too dangerous. Way too dangerous.

Since it's damned near impossibly for law abiding Marylanders to obtain a CCP; I myself choose not to go to places; where the propensity for deadly violence is high; and I have no way to meet and defeat it.

Baltimore's do nothing "give them space so they can destroy" liberal Mayor can suck my balls. That city will NEVER see revenue generated from me. :nono:
