I have alternately seen reports that the shooter used it to do his murdering; or that it was found after he had killed himself in the trunk of his car, implying it had <b>not</b> been used.<br /><br />I know that it would be <b>really</b> convenient for the blood dancers' goal of banning AR-type rifles and other such "assault weapons" if one was used here, so finding a definitive answer may be difficult, and, frankly, I just don't have the cope right now to wade through the gore-and-horror porn the media is churning out in such volume to seek the answer for myself right now. I can most likely handle reading a single page with definitive answers, but swimming through the muck... I have chronic depression; I have SAD and it is quite literally the darkest part of the year right now; I'm an EMT with white knight tendencies and I've been doing my CEs and refresher classes to re-up my license and we've been discussing mass casualty incidents and pediatric trauma and man, that thread by which my sanity hangs is getting mighty thin.<br /><br />So I apologize in advance for not being able to look myself.perlhaqrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01920117742664645165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-85081780921743653232012-12-18T08:32:38.187-05:002012-12-18T08:32:38.187-05:00"Social injury"?
