    Nope your attributing thoughts to me that I didn't say is very different from me describing your actual behavior. Look up hypocracy in the dictionary.

    It's is him speaking on the video. If you have a video of him saying he stopped the shooting in the church why can't you post it. Oh, I know, it doesn't exist.

    In fact there is no quote from him anywhere that he says he yelled and stopped the shooting. Nor has he ever claimed to have stopped the shooting inside the church.

    I have already posted an after the fact interview with him.

    What you totally fail to understand is after a shooting things are up in the air, what people though they did, they realize they did something totally different.

    It's too bad you don't comprehend the reality of a subject you know nothing about.

    if you are referring to the Texas newspaper article you posted nowhere in that does he say he yelled nor does he say he stopped the shooting in the church. In fact all his reporting of what happened appears remarkable clearsighted and consistent.

    Once again totally false.

    As he approached the old white chapel, he screamed as loud as he could, “Hey!” To this day, he’s not sure why—he knows that giving away your position is foolish, tactically—but friends inside the church later told him that when the gunman heard Willeford’s cry, he stopped shooting and headed for the front door.

    He stopped the shooting, get over it.

    No power means many landlines won't work for long. My mother's is good for about 45 minutes after the power fails.

    Explain, in your own words, EXACTLY what constitutes an "assault weapon".

    Sounds like the service is provided out of a remote terminal, they have backup battery strings but depending age those strings only last about 4 hours at best and then no more service.

    I think he'd have done MUCH more damage with an airplane loaded with gasoline. (Yes, he was a licensed pilot.)

    Well lets see if you can go to the NRA glossary of terms and find another definition. Or are you still confused about the difference between an assault rifle and an assault weapon.

    Deflection noted.

    Yet again: Explain, in your own words, EXACTLY what constitutes an "assault weapon".

    The words of yourself, not the words of the NRA, or of any other organization or individual.

    I don’t usually make up my own definition of words. You can pick and choose from any number of definitions. Which do you prefer.

    Or perhaps you would care to post a definition in your own words.
