They also could just arrest him when he left his house for beers or whatever. They dont have to no knock him like he's "sleeping while black" or anything.

If he was handicapped and homeless they would be neck checking this fucker. Probably ly a lie anyway...I bet they went, questioned him, had a big laugh, shook hands and called it a day. This is PHXPD

They'll always have excuses, it's how they justify bigger budgets and ridiculous departmental purchases.

"What if they have anti tank rockets?" "What if they're using suicide drones?" "What if they start taking shots at us with phased plasma rifles in the 40 watt range?"

The spectre of the unstoppable criminal provides an extra profit stream for defense contractors on top of forever wars.

So they can get new profile pictures for their social media accounts

No, they just agree with the shooter.

Seems like those cops went to the same school as the Uvalde piss babies.

Did you notice the part where it was Dems being shot at? Could be a correlation between who the cops serve and protect and what side of the aisle they identify with.

Limited property damage and a liberal...no resources for that around here.

The type of person to shoot up a political campaign office is a threat to their community and shouldn't have access to firearms.

Kind of a pointless thing to say, unless you have some breakthrough methods of how to identify the type beforehand...

To be fair, if the police aren't providing additional info directly yet, what other reporting do you expect?

Not that what the police say is necessarily the truth about a situation either, anything they claim should be taken with at least a pinch of salt nowadays if not a whole salt lick.

The problem with that is that everyone owns plenty of weapons.

Firearms make more sense stored at a range or hunting club, unless you live somewhere where you actually need one handy (for defense against large cats/bears for example), but pretty much everyone owns knives, rope, wire, ammonia and bleach, etc. and many own fertilizer, cars, chainsaws, and the like.

There’s absolutely no reason to store even a semiautomatic firearm at a place of residence though unless you’re rich enough to have your own security service and dedicated secure building in which to house the things. And handguns have always seemed pretty pointless to me (I’m sure someone must have a legitimate use for them that doesn’t involve aiming at people or use in a firing range, but I don’t).

That's just a fantasy that would require a magical wizard with near omnipotence to implement.

In reality, weapons are everywhere and millions are unregistered / unknown to authorities, in addition to the fact that tools and parts to build them are nearly ubiquitous. They will always exist regardless of legality, but we are fortunately endowed with the right to bear them so that no one is forced to be without any means of self defense.

Fuck off.
