They won't say what has happened yet. Appears a mass shooter started popping off at an outlet mall in Texas. They have already started with the gun rhetoric. This one shall be interesting.
Oh no, have they? Gun rhetoric? Oh no!
God forbid some snowflake gets their feelings hurt over wanting background checks so Americans aren't mowed down by military rifles daily.
Look, I'm a gun owner. I carry concealed. But we can do better than this BS. Much, much better.
We can have rights and better regulation. There can be both.

Most mass shooters purchased the firearms themselves legally.
Since when do Texans follow business rules on conceal cary ?

Well , where were all the conceal/open cary heroes of Texas in all of this ?

We should immediately kill every active shooter.
2nd.
Texas is one giant gun toting State & I thought carrying guns deters crime ?
Well, apparently not in the "gun free zone".
I guess they were respecting the owners wishes of not being in the shooting gallery, I mean "gun free zone".
Why didn't the signs work?
AR 15s need to go .
So if the government uses the military against the public , how are AR 15s going to stop them .

So you are telling me that had a man been carrying a Glock 10mm against the wishes of the mall & greased that mass shooter , he would be prosecuted in Texas for it ?

Take a look at my previous comment about statistics for gun usage in mass shootings, AR-15s are not the problem. (No gun is the problem really, but why use logic)
Technically, if a business has a gun free zone sign out and you use a firearm, even to defend said business, they can have you arrested. It is a game that us gun owners don't play.
It is a peaceful society, when the legal firearm owners are allowed to use them to defend the society when the gun laws fail. But instead, they want to keep shoving more and more legislation down our throats that is ultimately going to make us the bad guys, without guns, and the real bad guys will still have them.

Were is your vertically integrated supply chains of ammunition , food & fuel to fight a modern military ?
What communication systems will you use to coordinate your country wide revolution ?
I support the 2A , but AR 15s & AK-47s serve no real practical use in society, other than for adult boys & their Rambo fantasies.
All this last stand & over my dead body stuff from the right is predictable as well laughable.
If you want AR type weapons then you should have to carry a federal stamp on them just like advanced weapons do .
You are an aging boomer with a computer who can’t accept that the world has & is leaving your type of mentality in the dust.
Don’t you have contrails to photograph or drones to count hovering over your house ?
You are from Militiagan so I get it
Do you know how fast 5000 rds disappear in an AR 15 ?

"I support the 2A, but I don't support the 2A" Your argument is as weak as your ideology.
What do you consider to be "advanced weapons"?
Have you ever looked at the statistics of guns per human being in America? There are roughly 326 million people in America, with just around 393-400 million firearms. Then you take into account how much ammunition most of those guys have for each one, that number could be in the billions.
No problem , just have a federal stamp for your hog killing LaRue

Ever hunt feral hog? ARs are good for that.
Since 2012 the top 10 of the top 17 most deadly mass shootings were done with civilian models of the M16 period & end of discussion.

First off, nobody in their right mind would carry a 10mm for CC.
Second, I am not saying they would 100% be arrested. If the owner of the business is that much of an a$$, then yes he could have you arrested for having a firearm in a gun free zone.
Take a look at this guy sometime, Elisjsha Dicken.
You are talking about Allen, Tx. That is in the DFW area, and one of the bluest areas in the state.
And since you might have missed it when I pointed it out earlier, here is the breakdown of "mass shootings" by gun up to mid 2019, again:
I could probably find one more up to date if you would like. Or if you would rather, you could show some number to back up your outlandish claims.
