"" Charleston racist shooter Roof
wanted an AR-15; had magazines, accessory Then police found six 40-round magazine clips for an AR-15 in his car (CNN)— As Charleston gradually lays to rest nine shooting victims from last week's church massacre, a police report reveals self- confessed shooter Dylann Roof had wanted a much deadlier weapon. Earlier this year, he told an officer he wanted an AR-15 assault rifle. A search of Roof's car turned up six crescent-shaped, 40-round magazines in the trunk. "That's scary," former U.S. Attorney and State Law Enforcement Division Director Reggie Lloyd told The State newspaper, which first reported the development. "We ought to be thankful he never got his hands on an AR-15." Police had an eye on Roof for months before he shot dead nine African-American worshipers in cold blood on June 17. An officer arrested him on drug possession in late February. During the bust, something bothered the officer. Roof had been asking suspicious questions at a shopping mall, The State reported: When does it close? And how many people work there? The officer made note of the suspicious questions in a police report. Roof was released after the drug arrest on his own recognizance. Magazines found Then, on March 13, the same officer spotted Roof loitering in his car for hours at a public park. He was wearing all black, the police report said. Because the officer was off-duty at the time, he alerted another to investigate. The second officer asked Roof if he could search the car. Roof complied. That's when the 40-round magazines turned up. Roof also had a forearm for an AR-15 in his trunk. It allows a shooter to more easily keep a grip on the rifle, as the barrel grows fiery hot from the shots pouring out of it."" http://www.cnn.com/2015/06/26/us/charleston-church-shooting-main/ Then police found six 40-round magazine
Lol at "magazine clips"

trunk. It allows a shooter to more easily keep a grip on the rifle, as the barrel grows fiery hot from the shots pouring out of it. Gotsta get that sensationalism in there, good Lord... |

Yeah I heard that on CNN earlier today and just kinda shook my head. Somehow you're more dead if the weapon used is an AR-15. The .45 slugs at point blank range were not theoretically deadly enough for the ghouls at CNN.
The inference of course is that once he left the church, the AR-15 would have magically propelled him towards the next crowd of victims to run up a body count. Well CNN, I hate to break it to you, BUT he had 4-5 hours on the road where he could have easily accomplished the thing with his Glock. I am quite familiar with Glocks in 9mm and .40 S&W. I can attest to their ability to toss a large number of rounds downrange in a very short period of time. The problem for Roof is that by walking into a place that is NOT a gun free zone like a mall, he exponentially increases his chances of armed resistance from either a uniformed cop, security person, off duty armed cop, concealed weapon carrying civilian, or even a member of the armed services with above average disarming skills. He fails and likely dies in the process. By going to the church (a gun free zone)he knows the odds are highly stacked in his favour. The kid was homicidal, not stupid. |

From CNN today....
"" JUNE 27 2015 4:43 PM CNN Claimed to Spot an ISIS Flag at a Gay Pride March. It Was Actually a Drawing of Sex Toys. On Saturday, CNN devoted an entire segment to what it called "an ISIS flag among a sea of rainbow colors." CNN International's Lucy Pawle described spotting the flag at a gay pride march in London. She pronounced it to be "an attempt to mimic the ISIS flag, the black-white flag with distinctive lettering." Upon seeing the flag, she reported it to nearby police. She noted, however, that if you "look at the flag closely," you'll see "it's clearly not Arabic." Pawle is correct that the flag is not in Arabic. It is, in fact , not in any language. Rather, it consists of crude drawings of sex toys. Pawle was joined by CNN National Security Analyist Peter Bergen to discuss the matter. During the segment, the camera panned in repeatedly on the flag in question. CNN has not yet commented on the error."" http://www.slate.com/blogs/outward/2015/06/27/isis_flag_at_pride_march_cnn_those_are_sex_toys.html |
