Default One is not enough

Yet ANOTHER mass shooting: Four shot dead in US as NRA speaks out in
favour of MORE guns
21 Dec 2012 18:43

Two men and a woman were killed and the suspected gunman also died in
the shooting this morning in Pennsylvania

Four people have been shot dead in another US mass shooting - as the
National Rifle Association held a press conference urging MORE gun
ownership.

Local media reports suggest the gunman was driving up and down a rural
road in the Altoona area, 70 miles west of Harrisburg, shooting randomly.

The woman was killed at a gospel church, according to the Altoona
Mirror, while police said the shooting scene "extended over several miles".

Meanwhile three police officers were injured in a shoot-out with the
gunman - one was shot but escaped serious injury because the bullet hit
his bulletproof vest.

A second cop was wounded by shattered glass when the gunman fired at his
car while the third was hurt in a crash.

The gunman and his three victims haven't yet been named by local
authorities.

Coincidentally, the news broke as the NRA held a press conference to
break its silence on the Newtown shootings a week on from the slaughter.

Gosh, *armed* and trained police officers were not able to stop this
latest shooter until he shot and killed three more people. Three police
officers were injured in the melee...

Let's see...one cop with a .38 snubby stationed at a school with
multiple entrances and windows.

Yeah, that'll do it.
