    The father of Colt Gray, 14, the Apalachee school shooter, has been charged with multiple murder, manslaughter, and cruelty to children offences.

    Last year there were threats at the school. These were investigated but the suspect Gray claimed he hadn't done it. Yet last Christmas his father still bought him an AR15. It was illegal for him to own a firearm until he was 18.

    Father and son are both in deep do do.

    Meanwhile elsewhere in Georgia, Mad Marge Taylor-Greene is giving away a .50 calibre rifle.

    If this guy is right our TV News got it wrong. That should not come as a shock though.

    Its GunJesus (Ian McCollum) - IMO probably the premier YT fact-based Firearms content creator - suffice to say, I trust his analysis. Especially over any Media personality.

    (Seriously, even if you don't like Guns - his factual content is just top-tier)

    TV news said he had a gun. Saw the video and it looks like a gun. Bloke with funny facial hair says it was a gun.

    Am I missing something?

    The report I saw named the brand/type that this man said it wasn't. Usually TV1 source clips of US news from ABC, whether it was part of that or their own editorialising I can't recall.

    Nett result was same, regardless of weapon. Seems to have made an enormous number of people happy. May even start a trend - open season on CEOs
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.

    This is the firearms thread. Some hereabout are interested in such details.

    The victim was the CEO of the company that declined the highest proportion of claims in the US medical insurance industry. Some 35% IIRC. There are reports of staff laughing and joking about denying claims. If people paid big money to a company that joked about not paying out, a proportion if those people would get upset. Some might even get really really upset. Then too there are also stories about financial shenanigans. Investors who lose big get upset about that too.

    Few are shedding a tear.

    Apparently 17% is average and the worst is a lot more than 35… I ditched some coverage I had after reading the fine print, there’s lots of stuff they exclude that you don’t know until you read in depth.

    Public consultation on the Arms Act Re-Write.

    https://consultations.justice.govt.n...s-act-rewrite/

    Here is your option to make a submission.

    Obviously I have a very strong bias on what I think should be done.

    Here is the link, you can go ahead and say you agree with everything the Government has done and no one should have Guns, you can say you think there just needs to be a few tweaks, you can say that what was done was a travesty... And all manner of options and opinions in-between.

    I have my voice, feel free to add yours to it.

    On a side note - the new director of the ATF, liking the look of his views on 2A.
