OH, ok so Highland Park is just another name for Chicago. Other than perhaps the neighborhood is this a surprise? The count this morning was 51 and 7.

Copenhagen shooting suspect held in psych ward, authorities rule out terrorism

The man accused of killing three people in a shooting in a Danish shopping mall was ordered on Monday to be held in a closed psychiatric ward, and authorities said they did not suspect the crime to be an act of terrorism.

www.reuters.com

The suspect, who police said was known to psychiatrists in Denmark, was in possession of a rifle, ammunition and a knife when he was arrested.

Danish gun laws are strict and all firearms, with the exception of some hunting rifles, require a licence issued by the police. The shooter did not have such a licence.

"US Rep. Brad Schneider, a Democrat who represents the area, confirmed he was on scene during the shooting in a tweet.
"My campaign team and I were gathering at the start of the parade when the shooting started. My team and I are safe and secure," he said"


Well, that's what's important.

I guess the thug didn't get the memo....or perhaps thugs simply do not give a flying **** about laws.

Was the thug not aware of this?

Can't stop everyone with evil intentions no matter how much gun control they pass.

Probably helps ensure safety to have armed people on your team.

 

[jamil]

I mean. These shootings are now happening at a rate that we should just start a "mass shooting thread".

No no no.....we must do something!






Apply purple as you will.




About the only thing gun control is effective at is ensuring more numerous unarmed targets.
