Hollywierd speaks the troof. Screw on a silencer/suppressor and all you hear is a muffled "phut... phut".
Yup! Just review all those "Man From UNCLE" episodes! That's what Hil
LIARy did!
The "funny" thing about freedom that DU-folk only care about when they think it's
THEIR freedom is that one is not obligated to justify how one uses that freedom.
From what I've heard/read, the shooter was shooting people for 10 minutes. His shots were clearly audible in recordings I've heard. That means police could have heard him, but
by the time they were able to gather a response, he had stopped firing. His use of a "silencer" was not a hindrance to locating him. The hindrance was that he had stopped firing and police had to use other means to locate him. Since he had stopped firing and targets had been cleared from his field of fire, police probably took extra time to get hotel guests to safety and organize an overwhelming breech with back-ups stationed so that if he evaded that he would still be caught.
I'm far from brilliant, so if I can figure all that out it's obvious that
Nematode is parroting hoplophobic nonsense talking points, not thinking through and speaking to known facts.
