What we know about the slain Texas mall massacre suspect Mauricio Garcia
Garcia had a tactical vest and was armed with a rifle of some kind as well as a handgun, one of the senior law enforcement officials said. He was identified as a suspected neo-Nazi sympathizer by authorities
This is interesting. A Latino alt right / racist guy, sure, but Latino neo Nazi believer is a lot less common.
@jjmacnab Hmmm, white guy with an AR-15. Latino with an AR-15. Asian guy with an AR-15. Jew hater with an AR-15. Black hater with an AR-15. Hispanic hater with an AR-15. Old man with an AR-15. Young boy with an AR-15. But what could we possibly do? If only there were some sort of common element among all these atrocities!
@walterbays @jjmacnab Semi-automatic firearms should be illegal. There. I said it.
@Ironworker229 @jjmacnab Suppose 2nd amendment rights were absolute and above all other rights, so semi-automatics could not be banned. Then on what basis could they prohibit possession of surface to air missiles? Cluster bombs? Apache attack helicopters? Tactical nukes?
Or do 2A absolutists believe all these weapons should be legal?
