Just about a minute ago I saw a Tweet from the station that said they're  back in the building and everyone is safe.

Maybe someone referred to President Obama as "Obama" and it set one of those left wing nuts off.

Glad everyone is safe if that Tweet is true.

Right after I posted that I ran across a couple stories that said the Police had arrested her with no struggle.

Good to hear it ended safely.

Wow talk about a stressful day at their job

[Thor]

Awwww, poor babies got scared!! Where were the MEN to disarm her?? Ohh, that's right, we're talking the media here, so there aren't too many men, just Eunuchs....  This is the kind of crap that happens when law abiding citizens are denied their 2nd Amendment rights by their employers.

Poor people, I would like to know more about why this happened and what her motives were.

This is why we need more gun control, so people like this can't get them as easily.

Says the idiot who doesn't own a gun.

We have over 20 THOUSAND gun laws on the books.  What's one more, more or less?

While you're cowering in the corner waiting for the bad guy to calmly walk over and put a bullet in your head, I'll be drawing a bead on the guy.

Care to guess whether or not I wait for him to pull the trigger before I do?

According to WSOC-TV ch#9 (the victim station), it was a middle age (my guess) black woman that wanted to express her opinion... no mention what she wanted to rant about.

She entered held a gun to her head and did whatever....and the gun wasn't loaded. It all lasted about a 1/2 hour.

Maybe she should play Russian roulette with a .40 cal Glock automatic.

As long as there's no snap caps in the mag . . .

Gun control = being able to put lead on target......

I can see the thought bubble now . . .

"Oooh--this is an illegal gun!  I better not knock off the 7-11, though I need the money for my meth fix!"

Give me a ****ing break.

No I don't own a Gun, I also don't have plans too.

The right one could be the difference between crazy people go into buildings and doing things such as this.

Good.  Another believer in 911, or as I refer to it, "government sponsored Dial-a-Prayer."  Remember, when seconds count, the cops are just minutes (or hours) away!

The right one?  Which one might that be?  Felons and the mentally incompetent are already prohibited from owning guns.  Which one is "the right one" if the existing laws aren't enough?  All you do when you create more laws is create more criminals.  Create enough laws, and everyone is a criminal, whether they realize it or not.

Not owning a gun is your choice. It is your right not to own a gun, just as under the constitution it is any citizen's right to own one.

What, in your opinion, would be the right law to stop a 'crazy' person from going into a building with a gun, as in this particular case?

[Eupher]

No I don't own a Gun, I also don't have plans too.

The right one [law] could be the difference between crazy people go into buildings and doing things such as this.

This is where you make your fundamental mistake. People have died who think like you, because the person who put the bullet in their brains doesn't give a flying **** about laws. Oh, and don't think for a moment that they're crazy - they're no crazier than you are. They're sociopaths and psychopaths, but they haven't been diagnosed yet. That makes them normal until one of your quack shrinks declares them abnormal.

So you're sitting in your cute little cubicle being all productive and shit, and along comes this guy or gal because they honestly don't give a **** about that law that you keep harping about, and bang - you're dead. And you ain't coming back.

Starting to get the picture now?

And how is gun control going to keep criminals in places like Detroit,the South Side of Chicago etc. from getting guns? gun control punishes the innocent citizens from protecting themselves, see the above 2 cities as just such an example. Do you really think if innocent law abiding citizens in Chicago and Detroit had easy access to guns that they'd be subjected to the amount of crime they face on a daily basis?

Someone broke into our home last year.  I had my daughter with me, four months old at the time, and drew my gun.  Did a quick sweep of the living room/dining room area.  Didn't see anything, so I called the police.  Told them I wasn't going indoors because I had my daughter with me.  The substation is located a few blocks away.  It took the police AN HOUR AND A HALF to show up.  Then they called ME crazy and told me I forgot to shut my door and lock it.  And that was with obvious damage to the door that showed someone forced their way in.

I do not depend on the 9-1-1 system.
