I have a feeling the LAX shooter was anti gun

[bigrebnc1775]

Chris Dorner was a supporter of the assault weapons ban And I don't know of any pro gun people who would do what the LAX shooter did just to make a point. Only a whacked out anti gunner would do that.

The man accused of opening fire at Los Angeles International Airport, shooting employees and terrorizing travelers, accomplished two of his goals, according to authorities: killing a Transportation Security Administration officer and showing how easy it is to get a gun into an airport.

LAX Suspect Remains Heavily Sedated, Under Guard - ABC News

He had some deep hatred of the TSA, and what he perceived as a violation of his constitutional rights. His comment about how easy it is to get a gun into an airport sounds more like a criticism of the TSA's effectiveness, not of lax gun laws.

The gunman was anti-gun. And in other news...black is white and up is down.

Maybe, but I don't know of any pro gun people who would take a gun into an air port just to show how easy it was to do.

Do you know of any?

He didn't bring a gun into an airport just to show how easy it was to do. If so he would have brought it in and said "Hey look what I just did." He would have been arrested, and a national debate may have started over lax gun laws. He was there to kill people, and instead a national debate started over whether or not we should be arming TSA agents. If he was anti-gun the message he was trying to send sure backfired.

Until it comes out he was a lefty the left will continue to claim he was a far right political and was a tea party member. EVERY shooting in the last 4 years has been the same, the left openly makes the claim until it is dis-proven and in fact proven they were left of center politically, THEN the left says, ohh well he was just crazy that has nothing to do with his political belief system. The same people in this thread claiming that he was right of center and that was why he did it, will be the ones claiming once it comes out he was left of center that crazy has no political belief.

He said he did. Did you not read what I quoted from the link?

 

[JakeStarkey]

Stop it, reactionary fruit loops.

His own letter and messages show that he was a right, hated the TSA, and wanted to protect what he thought was "constitutional rights." He was an anti-government gunner.

He was deranged. The Boston bombers, both lefties, were not deranged.

Ya cause nothing says normal like bombing a marathon.

So what if he was? I have yet to see the media get it right when they try to pin a shooting on the right wing.
However a gun owner is not going to take a gun into the airport just to make a point.

The only thing similar to that I read in the linked article was:

The letter also talked about "how easy it is to get a gun into the airport," the law enforcement official said.

Again, it sounds like a critique of the TSA's effectiveness, but not the main reason he brought the gun into the airport. He stated in a letter that his reasoning was to kill multiple TSA agents and "instill fear in your traitorous minds."

I don't know about you, but I don't know any people who would murder others in cold blood to satisfy an imagined grudge. So maybe we have to operate on the idea that this guy doesn't think like most people do, regardless of what his political motives might be.

The mistake you are making is equating him to average Americans/gun owners. There is something very very wrong with this guy. He could easily be a pro-gun person trying to prove an insane point, he's not functioning in the same reality as most people, as far as I'm concerned.

Average american? Anti gunners are nuts and some will do anything to prove how evil those guns really are even use those guns themselves.
Chris Dorner the obama supporter also supported an assault weapons ban.

I would appreciate it if you didn't try to deliberately cloud my point just to continue trying to bolster your own faulty premise. So why don't you join me in reality, where neither one of us knows what Ciancia's stance on gun ownership really is. There is something wrong with this guy. He may be pro-gun, he may be anti-gun, but without more information trying to apply a rational thought process to the dude who just shot up a major international airport terminal as an apparent "fuck you" to the TSA is a waste of time.

I mean, really, you're trying to argue your point by saying that normal gun owners wouldn't act this way? No fucking kidding. Normal people don't decide to go on a shooting spree and attempt suicide by cop to get "revenge" on a government entity.

And for the record, mentioning "Dorner the Obama supporter" here doesn't get you cred points. It makes you sound like a partisan hack.

I don't care what he is.

I'm unsure so I'm requesting help here.
Is there a "moronic thread of the year" award on this forum?
