NYC subway shooting, multiple bombs found.

[WLJ]

Looks like he used a .22 from what I’ve seen in the pictures the news has shared.

DailyMail.com can confirm that a .380 handgun was found inside the station, along with three extended magazines; one was empty, one was full and a third was jammed in the gun. 

But another article said a 9mm so I don't know

Oh and he was known to the FBI

I wonder if they have looked to see if he has a brother named Jessie?

[Angel Eyes]

But another article said a 9mm so I don't know

Technically, .380 is a 9mm (short).

Yep

9x17 vs 9x19

I've lost track of how many terrorists and mass killers were "known to the FBI," or "had previous contact with authorities." I guess the key to flying under the radar is making sure you get your FBI interview(s) out of the way early. With that behind you, you've got carte blanche.

They were too busy going after the guys for planning listening to their plan to kidnap the Michigan Gov.

When that video opens, in looking in the opened bag I spotted that green coil of waterproof cannon fuse.  I'm betting those red things are either the smoke bombs or M-80 firecrackers as they have that same green fuse as the coil.

Gun was purchased legally:

The gun used to shoot 10 people in New York City on April 12 was purchased legally, according to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).

ATF investigators were able to find records that showed Frank James purchased the firearm from a federal firearms licensee in Ohio in 2011, John DeVito, an ATF official, told reporters during a briefing on Wednesday.

Other stuff he had:

The gun, a container carrying gasoline, and a U-Haul key were recovered in a bag left at the scene of the crime. Bank cards, including a debit card issued by a bank in the name of Frank James, were also found.

Another bag contained fireworks.

A storage unit in Philadelphia registered to James was raided. Law enforcement agents recovered 9 mm ammunition and a 9 mm pistol barrel. An apartment rented by James was also raided, with a taser, a smoke canister, and an empty magazine for a Glock handgun located inside.

Should I bother to ask conspiracy bro at work why this fake shooter didn't use a ghost gun or an assault weapon with a forearm brace when he didn't shoot the crisis actors?

(I won't ask, because I wouldn't get a straight answer. Just more half-baked ideas.)

Has Kamala bailed him out yet?

Has Kamala bailed him out yet?

Eventually, one of these people is going to get let back out and then immediately go kill more people.

[Perd Hapley]

Eventually, one of these people is going to get let back out and then immediately go kill more people.

That would never happen.

[JTHunter]

That would never happen.

IIRC, it already has happened, I think within the last 12-18 months.

[Jim147]

He got federal charges and no bail. And it is about out of the news cycle already.

[Bogie]

We have had 'em revolving doored here in STL, and then go out and whack a witness...

Happened here several years ago. Guy was out on bail when he whacked the primary witness to the first crime.

That is the joke.

I was thinking more about a 2nd "mass shooting" or other actual terror incident.

No doubt.

In other related news an Obama appointed Fed Judge clears the way for NY to sue gun manufacturers

A federal judge Wednesday dismissed a lawsuit from gun industry groups challenging a New York law that permits civil lawsuits against companies for conduct found to have endangered public safety.

The judge concluded that the New York law did not preempt a 2005 federal law limiting the liability gun manufacturers and dealers can face. Citing an appellate court opinion in a separate case, D'Agostino said the New York law fit within an exception laid out in the federal statute.

And on the heels of that Glock is now being sued

The suit alleges that Glock’s business plan and marketing materials “appeal to prospective purchasers with criminal intent,” though it oddly starts off with a quote from the gun company’s founder Gaston Glock talking about marketing to law enforcement and not law-breakers; “It was a conscious decision to go after the law enforcement market first. In marketing terms, we assumed that by pursuing the law enforcement market, we would receive the benefit of ‘after sales’ in the commercial market.”

The lawsuit goes on to claim that those commercial sales should never have taken place, and that by selling to civilians Glock “chose to disregard the unreasonable risks of the Glock firearm in its marketing strategies.”
