It's funny how whenever someone opens fire on innocent people, it somehow becomes an argument for MORE guns in the community.
The perp is a milk-tank-truck driver, and a sportsman who had these rubberized deer bow targets in his yard. He was known as Chuckie in georgetown where he lived with his family. He picked up milk at the dairy farms and Ive never known him to be in the slightest other than just a normal(albeit loud) outdoorsey guy. Id see him at the fire company and Ducks Unlimited dinners and he was well known in the Amish community.
I'm beginning to wonder who becomes the arbiter for ownership of any kind of guns. Ive seen hunters kill pets and then try to exact some retribution for the pet owner being aggreived and now this totally irrational act against a community that only loves and respects peace and to be left alone. The world of violence comes crashing in so that my little home town area is thrust on National TV for something that Im sure we will never live down.
Maybe some kinds of gun controls are warrented. I have to rethink my position as a gun owner . Im somewhat embarrassed that any whacko can own a gun and do something as heinous as this and then others , like me, clueless to the possible damage they can witness, try to make up lame arguments that "if the victims would only own guns, they wouldnt become victims"
That type of thinking just wouldnt work for plain sects (over 400000 people nationwide)
The thing that just occured to me was that the killer here aways spoke in a large voice so that he could be heard anywhere in the firehall. He sort of boomed out just like Om Sig writes, all large bold letters.

Indeed you can, my dear Baldrick, but we all wish you wouldn't.
It would be awful if OSD's awful habits took off.
Would it also be awful if OSD took off?

I am not sure whether you say this tongue in cheek. But, it is a scary thought and one that has not gone unnoticed by myself.
Re OSD: On the other hand, all the bragging and noisy typing may just be his way to compensate for shortcomings in, um, other areas...
Pity and sympathy should abound in any case.
OmsigDAVID,
Your typing shows up on a2k as loud blasts, incredibly annoying loud blasts.
I know you said you do it for those with failing eyesight. I, who have failing eyesight, said that all I have to do to see letters in bigger form is to click on View in my browser to enlarge the type. As it is, you make all suffer visual blasting repeatedly.
I rarely read your posts because of the type.
Is posting the same foolishness multiple times yet another way to get your point across? It's not working...
I sae Oy me sung david tied to the back of a Ford F-150 4x4, it was really cool except he wouldn't stop yelling.
OSD, all we see are these large crayon messages that many of us read like those newspaper clipping ransom notes. You may be a mild fellow, but your typeface is loud. Noone cares about the differences between a typewriter and a keyboard. But your messages are printed like a Brother P-Touch (remember them?).
Oh well, if you have to be told...
