Charles, I think you should become a Fox News Contributor.
The focal point for Texas firearms information and discussions

Same, what i heard was this idiotic phrase, "...he didnt have a hunting license or a concealed handgun permit, but STILL had (enter weapons here)" As if you need a hunting or permit to own those weapons. FOX should screen their interviewees.jerry_r60 wrote:JJVP wrote:One thing I have not seen or heard anywhere is the term "assault rifle". I would think that if he had used an AK-47 or AR-15, the media and all the usual suspects would be jumping all over for an "assault rifle" ban. No mention of high capacity magazines either. Strange.
I did hear the assault rifle phrase used on news coverage. It was also announced that he was carrying an AR-15, a Remington 870 shotgun and 2 glock 40 cal. It was a bit unclear and reported differently by different people but the way I understood it was that he had at least all but 1 of the glocks, which was in his car.
I heard an phrase that made me cringe from a Fed on the Fox news report. I think they said he was from Homeland Security and I thought he had the "R" (republican) in front of his name. He made a comment along the lines of "we'll need to look into why he was able to have such a large cache of weapons". That idea didn't thrill me. In the context, I understood him to be talking about why this guy was able to own "so many guns".

BTW, The "ban guns" people are all over the blogs wanting gun laws... I knew that rhetoric would be brought up.
Any sign in Colorado is unenforceable unless it is on an already prohibited locaiton. Any busines sopen to the public must tell you to leave and you must refuse before you are breaking the law.
