3 And I've read (admittedly in the '80s) that most abortion clinic arson turns out to be committed by the owners: for insurance money; and public sympathy for them and corresponding antipathy for their opponents

4 Have they determined yet if the shooter is an employee at Focus on the Family ?

5 11 people shot, 5 of them were cops. No confirmation of fatalities.

8 People on both ends of the spectrum get too eager to politicize these things, but the folks on the Left are ghouls in their eagerness to use bloodshed to push their agenda AND to demonize fellow Americans.

Posted by: Y-not at November 27, 2015 07:18 PM (t5zYU)

27 I'm glad he's in custody and I hope and pray there are no fatalities. I know PP would certainly never extend that courtesy to me.

Possibilites: could be a domestic dispute, remember the ex-husband or boyfriend who shot up his ex's workplace at a hair salon a few years ago? Could be completely random, as in the gunman went in to the first available open door. Could be a Muslim, they allegedly hate abortion. Could be a reichstag fire situation -- wouldn't put anything past this potus and he did say last week that was going to pass gun-control. Could be a lot of things, but we all know what the MSM hopes it is...

Abortion clinic shootings are pretty much non-existant, I mean in all the four plus decades of pro-lifers protesting there's hardly any reports of violence. So I'm really not going to believe it's a pro-lifer until there is hard and fast evidence.

Eight in nearly 40 years. Considering the number of pro-lifers in this country and the number of protests outside PPs, that is an amazingly low number.

Waffle House in Biloxi, MS was just the scene of a gun fatality. Guy walked in and was informed no smoking inside. Pulled a 9mm from under shirt and shot the woman in the head.

Janet, 8 years at WH, was later pronounced dead.

Shooter was arrested on scene. In jail on $2 million bail. And hearing set for next week.

Don't glorify thes crazy people. All you do is create more crazy people doing this same kind of crazy stuff.

A responsible media would NEVER mention his name. Call him the CO Springs shooter, The Newtown shooter, etc. Rob these crazies of (In)Fame(y) and history by never mentioning their name.

I've always assumed that letter carriers are given their route, but it's up to them how they work it. One might start at one end and work his way to the other, and a substitute might decide to do it the other way round. I don't know if that's true, but it makes sense to me.

"Specter" was a lot of fun. I think on reflection, that I liked it better than "Skyfall".

New "Hunger Games" movie ended the series well and redeemed the series for me after the last movie which stunk on ice.

I don't really watch many police shows BUT one of my favorite's a few years ago was "Detroit (some number - code for murder").

It wasn't a great show at all but what I LOVED about it is that in a predominately black city, more than half the crimes were committed by white people. My favorite was the Jewish gang member evening up scores from decades ago.

Ahhh liberal media.....

Detroit's such a third world sh1t hole, I'd think you could have all kinds of amazing stories come out of there. Back in the 80's, when it was 'Murder City USA', I believe the local Detroit news was the American station played across Canadian cable companies meaning many people thought that most American cities were shooting arcades...

You sound very concerned. Look, man, it's a simple fact there is a set of names that one would almost never find attached to white folks. There are also plenty of black folks with names also commonly used by white folks. I'm not aware of any set of names used exclusively by white folks.Myself, I think ghetto culture is to blame.

261 A bing search for 'black name generator' resulted in a few sites which will generate your 'black name' for you.



I may not recall this correctly, but I believe the naming convention is to take part of the mother's name and part of the father's name and combine them. Or considering the 70% out of wedlock birth rate, you'd use the name of the man you really hope and want to be the father.

A pair of grizzled frontiersmen fight Indians, guzzle liquor, and steal squaws in their search for a legendary valley 'so full of beaver that they jump right into your traps' in this fanciful adventure.

Heh.

Well, "Mitt" is a nickname. His given name is Willard, right? I'm sure you could find a black man named Willard. The point still stands. Is there really a class of "white-only" names, meaning given names, primarily? I have yet to hear of white kids named "Trayvon" or "Laquan". For that matter, I doubt there are many black folks much over 40 with such names. It seems to be a relatively recent phenomenon.

312 A .22 or .25 is the weapon of choice for hit men. The bullet rattles around in the ol' brain bucket and causes a whole lot of damage. That bullet also fragments and mushrooms, which makes it difficult to get ballistics evidence to trace the gun.

Somewhere online, depending on your area, there are reviews. Maybe there's a state or local gun forum, or just Yelp, Trip Advisor or something like that.

The forum reviews will have more detail.

Then you can check and see if they have a web page to see what their rates and hours are, if they rent guns and sell ammo, have training classes.

Sometimes a cheap training class can be the best way to check *all* of it out. They will often have reviews online in the same places.

If you can find one close that offers instructors and classes, pick that one first.

I was taught at an early age by my father, who was taught by the military. And then I did three years in the army. I would still take a hunting clase, because of the changes in the law over my lifetime, and the same with a concealed carry class on the law of self defense.

If the nearest range is a shooting club, ask if there are members who will offer you (free) instruction in the safe handling of firearms.

366 I've always been happy to take newbies to the range. The ones who start out a little scared and "anti-gun" are the best, because once I get them safely up and running they realize how much fun shooting can be. Of course, Oregon recently passed this completely inane "gun transfer" law which technically makes it illegal for me to hand a gun to a friend without first completing a background check. Fortunately, most LEOs have said straight up that they won't enforce it.

Here's some starters:
Safety first and foremost. If they seem loosey goosey, chances are that's exactly what you'll find.

You have to show ID at the door. They ask you about your experience.

NO ONE goes into the shooting lanes without eyes and ears, or with a weapon that is not inspected first.

Nuggets don't shoot without a RSO by their side. A RSO is present when the range is hot.

Safety and shooting rules are strictly enforced. No excuses and no exceptions.

The range is well lit and well ventilated, and is not crowded. Only shooters are in the range; observers are outside.

Staff is courteous and friendly and does not look down on you for asking questions and wanting to familiarize yourself with a weapon. They'll give you a chance to hold a weapon, demonstrate how it is made a complete safe weapon, and how to load and unload it, how to clear a misfeed or a jam. And the RSO will do it for you on the range when it happens if you ask him to.

You can tell a lot by what you see when you walk in. If you see people slinging pistols around and sighting them with no awareness of what the weapon crosses or is directed at, your best bet is to leave.

And make sure the other people there drink a lot and talk about beating up their wives. Confederate flag moral patches on range bags are always a plus.

haha, in all seriousness, I'm in the same position (shooting wise). Considering joining a private club... Closest public indoor range is a bit of a drive and the mall ninjas and idiots kind of ruin it. And the employees are mostly DICKS -- and not about important stuff like safety. They just have shitty attitudes.

401 At our local public range, I'm usually the first one through the gate. I
also keep a hot sidearm on me at all times, because there are some
really sketchy people from time to time. I've had to yell at people who
swept me with a muzzle on several occasions. I will probably end up
joining the local private club just to reduce the risk of ending up the
victim in a Criminally Negligent Homicide case.


I was downrange picking up targets at the public range outside of Las Cruces, NM when some dumbass in another lane decide to start popping his targets.

2 bits of luck that day.
1. We were several lanes apart.
2. His buddy started yelling at him stop firing.

I just started going out into the desert and shooting in the arroyos after that, it was just safer.


Posted by: Blanco Basura at November 27, 2015 09:31 PM (YJmuy)

402 OK, what about this:

The shooter got inside the PP building. If he was after PP itself (staff, etc.), seems like more would be dead and he probably wouldn't have killed a cop who had nothing to do with PP directly.

Also, there was an early report that he was shooting randomly in a nearby parking lot prior to going to PP. One of many, no link sorry.

Just spitballing, not predicting.

403 This whole thing in Colorado Springs set my mind working, and I seem to recall that there was at least one incident where a PP clinic was bombed as a distraction for a bank robbery gang.

405 RE safety at the public range:

I wasn't there, but the range security officer and a few regulars told me this story recently -- girl shoots a 1911 at a target at 7 yards. Apparently she did well, turns around to face her boyfriend, smiling and celebrating, and BOOM -- new hole in the drop ceiling and a "clunk" off the roof.

Luckily the muzzle was pointing up and not at her boyfriend, but that incident made everyone shudder pretty hard.

Last I heard, the best theory was he was inside the PP shooting out. Thus the shots in the parking lot at the supermarket and the confusion about 'shots fired' near the bank.

Except for your opening remarks, that's about where I am. I can't afford an exclusive club, and that is still no guarantee they will be competent, and the problem with public ranges is they are public. With good administration maybe, but I don't want some self appointed expert with a 'hot weapon' enforcing his idea of range safety either.

I've been through basic, and I don't want R. Lee Emory screaming in my face again.

414 I was just disgusted listening to local news interviewing other PP abattoirs and hearing the assurances that they have security measures and they will be open tomorrow. One called Denver PD for backup support but they left when the COS shooter was arrested. WTF? If they actually thought there was any risk of parallel attacks that risk wouldn't go away just because of the arrest.

If I was clever enough I'd come up with a "let PP employees have a long weekend, no more black friday operations" campaign. It is just disgusting to me that is is considered icky for retailers to do the BF sales but it is a good thing for PP to be open.

422 I may be using a different definition of "public" regarding ranges, BTW. I consider a public range to be something of a no-charge, National Park type scenario where there's a section of land set aside specifically for shooting (e.g. Twin Ponds http://preview.tinyurl.com/zjfrhzj). Any range officer present will be a volunteer and it's usually a free-for-all.

I'm guessing most people refer to privately owned but publicly admissible (with fees) ranges as "public" ranges. In that case, I've found no exception with those I've experienced. But, I've only been to a few.

Here, anything over 100 yds is going to cost you thousands a year for club dues. And that's only if they let you know the secret handshake to join.

There are several National Forest service ranges, free, that are 100 yds. Got to keep a careful eye on everyone else while you're there though and never go alone.

Avoid ranges/stores that include variants following words:


If you get a chance, closely examine the partitions between shooting lanes. The partitions are usually wood, MDF or some such material. 1/4" steel, or 4" concrete would be nice, but I think I've never seen such a place.

Is there any evidence of bullet damage to the partitions? How old (or new) is the damage? How many partitions show this sort of wear? These are clues.

In any event, trying to get a position as far to the right as possible. If a gun is pointed down-range, and is mistakenly fired ... on an outdoor range after Cease Fire, this should never happen, otherwise perhaps no one will notice. But most shooters are right-handed, and are more likely to point to the left when loading, preparing to start firing or ceasing fire, and if there's a mistake during one of these times ...

Keep the muzzle pointed at the target, or verify that the gun is unloaded and cannot fire (cleaning rod blocking the chamber, etc.) ... don't be the fool who mistakenly points left and fires.

A low 2x4 with a few cans & bottles on it - hanging by a chain from a tree limb at about chest height, a piece of 1/2" aluminum or steel plate 9 x 12 ". A high 2x4 to hang paper from.

While hiking, I like to just do a draw-and-fire as I come up on them. The plate target is my favorite for this; a hit gives a loud ringing sound for immediate feedback.

Good God, Man.

Oscar Meyer pre-cooked microwave bacon. It's not the best, but unless you set the microwave to an hour instead of a minute there's hardly anything for you to screw up.

I think you're the kind of person who can't walk away from something you're cooking because you lose track of time.

Also, do you have a huge wind blowing through your kitchen or do you have no sense of smell?

I spent a lot of time alone so I had to learn to cook.

I did know someone when I was younger who was so bad they set water on fire trying to boil it. We all decided he should subsist on fast food, it would be safer.

479 471, oh yeah, First Bank of Colorado locates all their retail outlets inside Planned Parenthood facilities.

Pro tip: when a blog's reader posts such a fruitbat comment in that blog's thread, that does not render anything in that post "reporting" 'by' the person i/c of that blog.

482 I thought we were supposed to be all about obeying the laws, whether we like them or not. Like we want Pres. Momjeans to do. And immigrants.

Last I heard abortion is legal. Many posters here seem to be justifying this guy's actions. Sounding a lot like John who served in Vietnam Kerry.

This guy is a bad guy. Period.
