Assault rifles and SMGs are already restricted.

you can still buy a semi automatic version of an 'assault rifle' in many cases thus rendering the ban a bit pointless

Yep just seen the video from his perspective. Jesus he literally has the gun held right at her for ages and she didnt notice at all.

He was posting on his twitter 17 minutes ago, claiming she was a racist.

Still no reason to go and shoot them!

Holy crap the shooters own video is chilling!

Yeah blacks and hispanics all look the same, could be Asian as well

It was more because he had a motive and looks similar. Nothing to do with race :rolleyes:

So do you think it could be the same man or is it not PC to speculate unless the suspect is a blue eyed Aryan male?

No, the image, as blurry as it is, was clearly of an African-American male.

The guys twitter page is suspended but still available on Google cache (the video isn't linked). A lot of talk of being disgruntled at perceived racism when he worked there

just mentally damaged individual again...

That's the problem with people having access to guns.

Here we go, another media spectacle for the masses to glee over as they pass around their faux respect for people they don't know, moan about guns for a few days and ultimately nothing changes as people get bored and move on to different equally dissatisfying piece of news.
