Reports of up to 20 wounded in shooting in San Bernardino, California

And the ease in which terrorists can purchase guns legally here:

From 2004 to 2014, over 2,000 terror suspects legally purchased guns in the United States

Given France's strict gun laws, the terrorists who attacked Paris on Friday may have turned to black market sources for the weapons they used. But in the United States, known and suspected terrorists are allowed to purchase firearms under federal law.

...people on the FBI's consolidated terrorist watchlist typically placed there when there is "reasonable suspicion" that they are a known or suspected terrorist can freely purchase handguns or assault-style rifles.

And, as the GAO found, a number of them do: Between 2004 and 2014, suspected terrorists attempted to purchase guns from American dealers at least 2,233 times. And in 2,043 of those cases 91 percent of the time they succeeded.

Welp since the guy was a state employee its safe to assume he wasn't on any terror watch list. 
 
Now what?
 
lol

The fact that CAIR is holding a presser is a pretty good indication of where this investigation is heading...

 
My opinion also.

Dude, that's something like 18 times a month over 10 years across the entire USA.

Except that California has a ban on owning type of weapons used in todays attacks, and has since 1989...

They were breaking the law long before they opened fire.

And it clearly didn't stop them.

When will the liberals wake up and recognize domestic terrorism for what it is?

The Obama Administration just issued a worldwide travel & safety alert for US citizens OUTSIDE the US, warning them to stay away from holiday gatherings, etc., yet there was no need for concern INSIDE the US.

Oops.

California Gun Laws: An Overview

California is a state with a complicated set of gun laws, including universal background checks and "assault weapon" bans.
 
So California already has laws the LWNJ's scream about.
 
Still didn't stop the evil in ones mind.

How many trained and armed cops did it take to stop them?

We need to give up owning automatic weapons to protect us from those who are trying to kill us with automatic weapons.

Anyone look into the possibility these 'Americans' were US military trained?
That will be the next revelation down the road one way or another.
 
Reporting now these clowns wore go pros.
 
Awaiting the MSM filtered response ' bought a book last week on radical Islam.'

Why else, it's a gun free zone. Nobody there is able to defend themselves.

 
I wonder 'pete, is THAT why an ARMED ppoliceman, lost his life at the LATEST  PP shooting   ???
 
Take your time answering THAT One.  The rest of us here aren't going anywhere so we'll WAIT for your awe inspiring Answer  !

[NewHampshire Black Bears]

I wonder WHY.....many, many, many people are on a NO FLY List(meaning those on the list have been vetted VERY THOROUGHLY), yet the mere mention of doing the same thing for........... G  U  N  S, ...is severely frowned upon  ??
 
PS,
Has NRA's  Wayne La Pierre... "checked-in"   yet  ?

I know that was an aside comment, but IMO, "We need to repeal the 2A," and "good guy with a gun" are both the same empty rhetoric, just from opposite corners of the room.

If only it were that easy...

 

[eolesen]

Again, Liberals keep focusing on the tool, and not the ideology behind it....

Even if there were no guns, this is all about a twisted ideology of killing the infidels, folks.

Ban all the guns in America, and the extremists will just move the cheese.

They'll either get them from the black market, Mexico, or just resort to a Boston Marathon type event with homemade explosives.

 

[Kev3188]

Well right now we're not doing anything, and that's clearly not good enough.

As opposed to the Planned Parenthood shootings?

California already has the most stringent gun control laws in the country, an assault weapon ban and universal background checks. What more do you want?

 

[Kev3188]

Whatever it takes.

Nothing should be off the table right now...
