roger allen Loc: another planet

so you are wanting to legislate murder is that correct ?- because it seems that would be in keeping with the current thinking of the entire right wing / teapublican nut jobs that are frothing at the mouth to have it their way be damm with everyone else in this country especially those that are not in agreement - you made a silly half wit statement looking for a justification that would suit you - the only problem is that it is just that a silly stupid argument - it never ends with your type- so never mind telling me what my type is - it is in keeping with 91% of the country.

I have no desire to get into the gun control debate, but I will comment on the video. It is completely staged. It is not a new report, even though it pretends to be one. It's not even a very good fake.

This was a news story in Tucson AZ. I lived there when it happened. It was on every channel and had followups to it. I don't know why you think it was faked.
Here it is from Associated Press

I have found a few articles about the event, but the whole thing still seems pretty fishy to me. It seems fake for a few reasons:

The car at the beginning starts exactly the same as when it drives away later. It isn't coming around the corner, it looks like it had backed up there and then drove into the driveway.

Was the homeowner sitting in his garage with his gun in his lap waiting for the assailants? Because that is the only possible way he could have responded so quickly to the attack.

There are actually two different versions of the video as well, one which the attackers all get in the car when they flee, and the one you have here where three of them run away. Also, the sounds of the gunshots are completely different in the two versions of the video.

Perhaps the videos were edited before being released to the public.

If this was a real attack, there is a lot that is being left unsaid, such as why was this house attacked, in broad daylight, by four such heavily armed men?

Finally, one of the news sources I found said the homeowner used a handgun to fight them off, not an assault weapon. So that pretty much makes the whole point of this posting moot. A man using a handgun was able to drive off four heavily armed men, one of which had an assault weapon. He didn't need an assault weapon of his own to protect his home.
