Mass shooting reported in San Bernadino

[Expat]

That could never happen....well...at least reported to have happened.

The Today Show is certainly working hard in this regard this morning. Savannah in her intro, never mentioned any possible religious connection at all. Just a nice young couple that got caught up in the freely available guns in this country. Of course as soon as they started talking to people, they had to mention they were Muslims since his brother was apologizing from CAIR headquarters and the FBI was wondering if his recent trip to Saudi Arabia might have played into their actions...

The guns forced this upon them.

Possible... they force me to buy them all the time....

Me too....it's like I have a gun to my head or something....damn guns.

The only guns that are forced upon me are made from elements from the periodic table.

Mine must be defective then...maybe it's because none of them have any of the looney left safe magazine clips in them?

So, anyone seen anything on the news where the media asks while all these shooting happen in states with lots and lots of gun control?

That's easy to say now but we still have our children in soft target situations every school day.

In spite of the mainstream gun control rhetoric that follows these shootings, Americans in general seem to not be fooled and continue buying guns.

Is this the time to hit up our state legislators for allowing ltch holders to carry in school zones?

Not likely, you have to use an SD card for GoPros. If they didn't upload then no chance.

I was thinking they videoed the intial shooting and would have had plenty of time to upload it.

They both had traveled to and returned from Saudi Arabia just this year. Their house was full of IEDs and materials to make them.

I'm sure they had a Type 10 FFL and all their paperwork is in order.

It occurs to me that a woman living in Saudi Arabia until recently was very likely NOT highly trained with a rifle. ..meaning a handgun carrier would have had a good chance of taking her out.

Supposedly they had body armor. If true, a handgun carrier would likely do more psychologically rather than physically. Certainly it's better than not having a gun.

If we could just convince terrorists to use IUD's instead of IED's, there would not be so many new little terrorists growing up

With all of the hand wringing about "soft targets" - even on Fox - and all of the bs calls for gun control....

Someone needs to remind folks that those of us that carry are "HARD targets" - we shoot back...

Any of you photoshop types that can come up with a "I am a hard target" Avatar pic? I'll gladly switch mine here and on FB etc.

Someone needs to remind the politicians in Sacramento that THEY disarmed the people in San Bernardino. And those people were slaughtered like sheep because of it. It is time to fight back.


I don't give much of a damn whether it was terrorism, workplace violence, or somebody that has mental health issues. To 14 people in SB, it doesn't much matter now why... And yes, I get that it matters on a global scale - but to those families that's cold comfort. They could not avail themselves of what they needed when they needed it most desperately. And they can thank a Democrat.

And to you fence sitting pantywaist Democrats that keep saying that "Obama doesn't want your guns" , you may kindly defecate in your hat. It's time to choose which side you are on. And own your decision.

Again, it's time to fight back.

Working on the hard target image...but first, I came up with this one. Sorry, I'm selfish that way...

While the videos save to the SD card, With the newer models you can stream the videos and pictures to your phone via its built in WIFI without ever having to be on a physical computer. They would still have to upload it as you mentioned, but they could've done it on the road if they needed to.

Thankfully, neither of their "training" was all that great. They spent a lot of rounds, hit relatively few people, and they really deserve and F in IED making.

I have to wonder if the reported 3 IEDs they left behind were meant for the first responders. Did they plan on sticking around and remotely detonating, but chickened out? Were they timed, but badly built?

First thing that comes to mind when I hear "Hard Target"..... then its his terrible cajun accent
