i matty

fake news you reckon

care to check out the house judiciary committee report Grin

https://judiciary.house.gov/media/in-the-news/atf-set-to-destroy-guns-associated...

Of course it's not fake news. It's an example of American weapons ending up in the hands of the country ranking third in the number of gun deaths.

I'm not contesting the fake news, dear. I'm asking why the ATF launched such an operation.

Looks like you've read up. Would you care to offer a reply?

No need for porkies this time, Aquascoot, feel free to tell it like it is.

The semi auto rifles we restricted were used in just over 1% of all firearm deaths from 1980-1995.

And now, in this century, that figure has tripled..

It's all in the plan, divide people by race, class or ideology. Destroy the family unit and propagandize children to believe other people are responsible for their lot in life. Bigger Government isn't the solution, it is the problem!

Several arrests made after Texas massacre suspect found in a closet miles from the crime scene, authorities say. Here’s what we know about what led to his capture

By Ed Lavandera, Josh Campbell and Elizabeth Wolfe, CNN

Updated 8:36 AM EDT, Wed May 3, 2023

In addition to accused gunman Francisco Oropesa, fewer than five others have been arrested, Chief Deputy Tim Kean of the San Jacinto County Sheriff’s Office said. “But I can’t go into the details.”

Authorities also are waiting to learn whether the mass shooting weapon has been recovered. “As of now, we may have the weapon, but we have to wait for ballistics (testing),” Kean said at a news conference outside the jail where Oropesa is now being held after a dayslong manhunt.
Cleveland, Texas, Mass shooting suspect Francisco Oropesa FBI Houston Tweet: Here are the newest images of Francisco Oropesa and a prominent tattoo on his left forearm. Going forward, the subject's last name will be spelled "Oropesa" to better reflect his identity in law enforcement systems. This remains a fluid investigation. #ClevelandTXShooting

Texas massacre suspect discovered hiding in a closet and taken into custody, ending dayslong manhunt, officials say

A 38-year-old Mexican national, Oropesa was found Tuesday evening stowed under a pile of laundry in a closet just a few miles from the massacre site after a tip helped lead authorities to him, San Jacinto County Sheriff Greg Capers said Tuesday. Law enforcement also tracked Oropesa’s wife to the home, which is associated with one of the suspect’s family members, a law enforcement source told CNN.

Oropesa will be held on five counts of murder, with bond set at $5 million, the sheriff’s office said.

The suspect is expected to appear in court Wednesday to be read the charges, a source with the San Jacinto County District Attorney’s Office told CNN, adding the charges could be upgraded to capital murder – a death penalty offense in Texas. Authorities are still investigating whether he had any help in evading arrest, the San Jacinto County district attorney told CNN.

Not just Texas:

Quote:

One Dead and 4 Injured in Shooting at Atlanta Medical Building, Police Say
The authorities said they were “actively searching” for a 24-year-old suspect after the shooting in the city’s Midtown commercial district. . . .the gunman fired shots inside a waiting room on the 11th floor of a Northside Hospital medical office, killing a 39-year-old woman and injuring four others. All of the victims were women, Chief Schierbaum said.

The police have not detailed a possible motive for the shooting. It came as the country continues to reel from incessant acts of gun violence.

Really is time for the septics to do something about the idiotic gun culture.

I know, right? They're rapists, they're murderers, they bring in drugs and some, I assume, are good people.

We need to put an immediate stop to these people UNTIL WE CAN WORK OUT WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON.

No, I think he was referring to Mexicans. The other ones are Muslims. Mind you, he wasn't a big fan of Black Lives Matter either. Or leftards, or RINOs, or Rosie O'Donnell.

It's a bit hard to work out who, exactly, he did like. Kim Jong Un, MBS and Vlad were definitely up there. He was okay with Saudi Muslims, Turks too.

He does business with them, you see. He liked Confederates as well - they made great statues. His grandfather was in the KKK, did you know that? The big fella was into racehorse theory.

You?

Everyone. You must arm every man, woman, and child in America.

The more people with guns, the less shootings there will be.

That's actually what the brain-dead Republicans "think".

You do know it was illegal for the illegal alien from Mexico to possess a firearm, right?
