I do not fit the profile of a Suave, debonair, romantic, and handsome young man anymore but I like to think I still am. Does that make me a nut? For the record my wife says yes it does and no I am none of those things anymore. Except romantic. Since I give her flowers weekly. She gets flowers weekly because once a week I have to go to the lab and it is next to the cemetery. Shhh!

Since when does crazy "Compute"? Does that not go hand in hand? Of course, that is exactly why we have conspiracy theories. Notice the term, theories. Not facts or proven, just theories. In the end it comes down to believe what you will. It can be discussed forever but never will it be proven either way. Thus why they stay theories, they cannot be proven one way or the other. Of course it could have been Hillary doing something to distract everyone from the upcoming indictments but she missed the timing of Mueller. Or it could have been Trump trying the same. Or even more out there it was both acting together to keep us distracted while they take over the entire world. Maybe they will release the files in 50 years and we can find out then that there are just more questions rather than answers. Either way I think I will go reload some ammo just in case because well, you never know.

It was not for"No reason". Reason was he was nuts. Bottom line is anyone that does something like that has to be pretty much crazy. I to am a suspicious and cynical old man and firmly believe there are very few people that do anything without an ulterior motive. However, it does not change the facts. He shot people then himself. Family seems to be a few fries short of a happy meal, so it would follow that he was just a run of the mill nut case. Sometimes it really is the simplest thing that is the truth. Now, that is all from me and is just that, my opinion. Which is worth nothing. I know my own value on the subject. If not my wife will be happy to testify on that matter.

So more than likely crazy just runs in the family. Sad but probably all the explanation we will ever have. As usual it does play to the mental health control rather than gun control. Maybe that is why the msm is ignoring it. Just does not meet the narrative.

So again, what do you want to know? I can see your reasons why but still not sure what anyone can hope to know as he is dead. Not trolling but I have always wondered why people keep wanting information about these events. Sometimes it is just bad folks with bad brains. I am not a big conspiracy theory type as most of the folks are on the edge of nuts to begin with and always see a conspiracy. So to me it comes down to just a nut job. Nothing much more to know. I guess we could armchair quarterback the response but as for why I am afraid as usual we will never know.

People were killed, perp shot himself. Other than conspiracy theories what is there really left to know? Shooter is dead so any idea of why he did it is nothing more than conjecture. Not sure what there is left to know. I have seen several places where people are asking when we will know more. An I missing something?

Wow, someone is really pushing the limits on their meds. Some of that is interesting, some seems deranged ranting, some is even correct. Overall it comes across as sour grapes whining.

Our thoughts and condolences sir.

Welcome and as with all folks new to the state, we love it here just the way it is. No changes needed or wanted. Except a few Yankees can head north anytime. Seriously, welcome and get out and enjoy all our great state has to offer.

Being into birds I would see it as an interesting article on the ever-changing natural world. Not everything is about humans. Lol

Found the info finally, I will PM it to you.

I also have one of their side chargers. Got it for my wife and she loves it. I picked mine up from a place I will not recommend. Bear Creek seems to be decent quality it was just the supplier I used that was a problem. We went with a 16 Middletown stainless barrel with a adaptive technology stock and 12" slim Keymod handguard. The upper seems to function well and is easier for her to use them there old school top/rear charge.

There is a guy in Columbia that does it. I will see if I can find his card. Otherwise the local Motorola service center is a good start. Most have the correct tool and charger less than twenty bucks. I went a different route and used a UHF trunk type from Diamond on my last two installs. I installed an Icom 706mkIig in my truck and of course when the wife saw it and used it she wanted one.

Here's a thought. How about they do their job and represent us. No more politics. Just enforce current laws according to the Constitution. Yeah, I must be dreaming.

We have treasonous turncoats. Some are Republicans some are Democrats some are independent. They are all worthless and needed to go!

Thoughts are with you. Trust she will be chasing rabbits happily when it is over. Our pets are family and we know your pain.

The way a lot of the cops dress and equip themselves these days it is surprising more friendly fire is not an issue. I have seen lots that look like they could be bad guys at times.

All of ours went through it. Lots of ice cream and love. They recover quickly. Thoughts and prayers for the him and you.

Folks, it will take a long time for FACTS to be had in this story. Any thing else is pure speculation and while time consuming and distracting not really beneficial. As I mentioned early on, stop trying to apply logic and reasoning to an event that was neither. Stupid is stupid and crazy is crazy. There is only one real cure for either and that power does not lie with any other human. It is a sad event that we will probably have to write off as a crazy act. All of these events have one thing in common, and it is not guns! It is someone kills a lot of people because they have either a mental issue or are acting as a terrorist. It can be argued that the latter is still a mental issue. So no more knee jerk reactions and blaming the tool. We have not banned rental vans, cars, knifes, bats, sticks, or any other tool so let us not jump to another worthless law that will have no effect anyway. Here is a thought, how about we focus on the real issues. You know, the mental aspects! Immoral, unfeeling kids that have not been taught to respect life. We are never going to be able to stop all folks that do something like this regardless of the tool they choose. Sad but true. So you can ban all the evil items like guns, knives, bats, pointy objects, or whatever and live in fear. Or you can live. Stop punishing all for the actions of a few. I know that is logic and reasonable so it cannot actually happen as it does not meet someones narratives. I can still hope though.

As is usually the case. It tends to insulate them a little but kind of hoses the sub contractor.

Not complaining about a plumber here so please take no offense. My complaints were with the home warranty company. They are nothing more than a middle man. And a bad one. There is not a single one out there with a good reputation. My personal interaction and experience with plumbers is zero. Always did my own work thank goodness. Same for most work around my house. Electrical, water heater, pretty much everything except HVAC. That is one area I never learned. I can do the basics, filters, starters, motor, but beyond that nope time to call a professional. To be honest I am kind of surprised at the number of people that cannot handle simple repairs around the house and have to call someone for every little thing. I am happy to hear we do still have professional and ethical plumbers. I have heard horror stories from friends about experiences. Oh well, I am building my retirement house now. Hope to do it right and never need a home warranty again.

I think people need to stop applying logic and reason to a man and situation that was neither. Just saying. Less Tin foil needed that way. After all the simple is most often the answer. In this case he was simply nuts.

Experience with First American Home Warranty or the most "Most worthless business ever" as they are widely known. They bite! Good luck getting them to do anything. Their contractors are bottom of the bucket companies that no one else will hire. We tried to get our AC fixed when it went out. $4400 later we had installed a new one and sent the guy they had dispatched to our house running. I was close to getting a gun from the bedroom. Guy was an upseller from hell. He was trying to sell my wife a $17,000 AC system when I got home. She is way too smart for that. Then the pool heater went out. Unreapirable. They tried to tell us they could get the same model and replace it even though it was 15 years old. I told themthey had 2 days to locate one and get it on the way to my house. If not they could pay for the new one. We wound up settling for $4500 to replace it. I hired another company and got it done. These warranties make people feel good about purchasing a house but the companies rarely stand behind them and when they do it is all upselling and lousy work. Now I need lunch and a chill out period. Thanks for the walk down memory lane!

Many decades ago as a Marine with a standard M16 we qualified at 200, 300, 500 and some of us at 1000 yards. I still have no idea why it was only some at 1000 and as usual there seemed to be no rhyme or reason as to the who. Regardless, yes that platform is capable of accurate and deadly fire out that far. Big difference being the controlled fire vs the spray and pray technique. Last thing we want to do though is discuss that particular area after Sunday's event. That would just fuel the grabbers big time.

Play stupid games with stupid prizes. Most people that have ever shot full auto understand it is good for a few laughs but that is about all. Fun as long as someone else is buying the ammo. Not as much fun though when it is your ammo. Controlled fire is much more accurate and effective. However either method is horrific when it is from a madman.
