The Narrative
A California man (coincidentally a truther) opens fire at the Pentagon. The NYT misses the truther narrative but gets on some gun control right quick:
Virginia, which has some of the most lax gun laws in the nation and has been pushing to expand gun rights, has been criticized lately by gun control advocates. The state’s General Assembly approved a bill last month allowing people to carry concealed weapons in bars and restaurants that serve alcohol, and the House of Delegates voted to end a 17-year-old measure barring people from buying more than one handgun a month.

I noticed that last night. WTF does that have to do with what happened in that article. It seems like it was cut and pasted into the article.

Unpossible. Handguns are not allowed on the streets of DC.

“Handguns are not allowed on the streets of DC.”
Yes, but the Pentagon is in Virginia.

As Uncle would say, it’s Unpossible, because you can’t carry guns on Federal property without the proper clearances.

Even more Unpossible, since that beanbag was a convicted felon who lived in Cali – so he couldn’t have legally purchased those nines anyway.

My thoughts when I read this. WTF do VA gun laws (lax or not) have to do with a KaliFornication con shooting on Federal property? Any idea yet where, who from & how he got those guns? Until the bleaters can come up with FACTS to answer my Q & A above, sit down & STFU.

We can own “nines” in california… Neutered as they might be, they are still “nines”.
