BART Train Takeover by 40 - 60 Teens

Post by Cosmos »

This would be a nightmare situation to find yourself in:

As usual, some of the comments from the apologists are unbelievable. Any bets this spurs a call for even more gun control measures?

From the article:
Police received no reports of guns or other weapons being brandished.
Why would this spur a call for more gun control measures? Or were you being sarcastic?

Not sarcasm. Media and other leftists do "connect the dots" that way sometimes. Good example is TV news, a murder is reported. Weapon used was a baseball bat. Graphic imposed above anchorboob's head shows image of a...gun!
Quit worrying, hide your gun well, shut up, and CARRY that handgun!

Nice to see they are protecting the identity of the victims. Oh wait...
The images cannot be shared publicly, she said, because the attackers appear to be minors.

If it were anywhere other than California...I might have sympathy for the victims. As it stands, this is they type pf society they wanted. They confirmed that choice at the ballot box.

Trost said police arrived at the station in less than 5 minutes, but that the robberies took place in just seconds.
My thoughts exactly.
God,
Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
the courage to change the things I can
and the Wisdom to know the difference.

Carrying a gun is a right, not a crime.

Gun control is racist.

Socialism's SJWs redistributing the wealth. (In a more direct fashion than by legislation as usual.)
