Yahoo/AOL implied it was a "white supremacist militia".
A bunch of black thugs looking for a place to die. I wouldn't count on many
of them being around to vote. I hope Kentucky takes care of this before
they are confronted with Trumps Militia.

One of them shot 3 of his buddies so they might not need the federal
agents.

I hope those three buddies and the rest of that mob of thugs demand justice.
How much jail time should the shooter get for 3 attempted murders?

The Reuters report said it was an accidental discharge. Perhaps some
gun safety training might be in order before carrying on the street.


Three accidental discharges?

It's conceivable that 3 people could have been injured by the same AD
if they were all in close proximity.


That is the way I understand it, one bullet, 3 bullet holes. Some may
have just been shrapnel, maybe all 3. A jacketed bullet pretty much
explodes when it hits something hard and pieces of jacket go
everywhere. When I was shooting in the basement I always shot through
2 layers of cardboard or the floor in front of the trap was littered
with twisted copper

Earlier this year I was hit in the leg with a piece of shrapnel while
shooting at an indoor range in Ft Myers. It's not at all clear how or
why it happened but it took a little chunk from my shin and bled a
bit. The traps were over 20 yards away and seemed well constructed.


Crap happens. I was hit by a ricochet from a 38 one year during annual
qualifying in the Air Force. I was sitting on the bench behind the firing
line. Don’t know why we qualified that year with pistols as we used the
Novato Police range and not the Hamilton AFB range. The bullet must have
somehow did a 2 cushion off the steel frames.
