So a 72 year old tranny is responsible for the shooting?

Tran is the name, have not seen any thing about him being trans.

Yep, a 72 yr old angry asian grandpa with an 80's Tec pistol doesn't sell gun control like the headline "Troubled young autistic racist white nationist MAGA with an AR15 assault type style rifle" does.

I think he assumed he didnt need the purple.
I'll give the joke a 7. 4.

Uh....having to explain the punchline ruins the joke.

A Chinese man being interviewed says...

“Chinese immigrants are pretty good at following rules, so the cause of this is guns”

And this will be the angle of the spin... can't compound the issue with preceptions of nationalism or racism, motivations of drugs, or fantasies of violent video games... The gun is the sole cause and target this time.

Now for the political demoncrat bashing…
I blame the ballroom dancing place for not having the proper placards on the entrance to stop this violence. Obviously more signs and laws would prevent murder since murder isn’t illegal enough alone.

So, maybe they should have the signage similar to announcing an upcoming diner on the old highways. "Gun Free Zone - 2 miles" "Gun Free Zone - 1 Mile" "Gun Free Zone - 500 Feet" "Gun Free Zone - 50 Feet" "You just Passed Gun Free Zone".

I've an odd feeling further investigation will find a motive similar (not identical) to the Taiwanese church shooting in Laguna Woods in May last year.

Ummm....Pretty sure mass shootings aren't in the rules. So, he must not have been very good at following the rules.

Dunno if it's been posted but they had an interview with the guy that disarmed shooter and they posted video stills. Firearms to my eye looks like Mac 10 style. I'm guessing though.

Makes you wonder how old it is and how he got it. Has that gun been kicking around California since the 90s?

The sheriff of that county said it was not an "assault rifle" that was used, but an an "assault pistol" with an extended magazine. It does looks like maybe a MAC style or Uzi pistol. Hard to tell from the pic they showed.
Either way, I can't recall hearing the term "assault pistol" before.
