Can you go back and highlight the parts where I disagreed with you or made you seem to think I was picking a fight/argument? Because I'm not, and wasn't. 1 1 Link to comment
Redux Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 So looks like was identified as a 49 year old with an extensive list of criminal activity, unlawfully possessing a firearm among the list. So this isn't really a more gun regulation thing. He wasn't allowed to have one, yet he did anyways. And he did so more than likely by purchasing/obtaining illegally from the Vargos MC which he is disputable affiliated with. Link to comment

You're pretty much epitomizing what drives people away from the P&R forum, so kudos if that's your goal here. 3 Link to comment

Hey, I came in with no agenda, made a very casual observation, and you almost immediately turned on the triggered angry attitude. You wanna have a boxing match, quote me in the shed. I had zero intentions of making THIS of all things into a thing. Sorry to disappoint. 1 Link to comment

While he may have gotten the guns from Vargos MC, it's at least as likely he bought them somewhere without a background check. Link to comment

But I would make the assumption he obtained it through less honest means if he has a record as extensive as his. Link to comment

commando Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 this standoff is 3 hours old and the guy is still shooting at the police. wonder what kind of arsenal he has to hold off the entire philly police department for that long. Link to comment
knapplc Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 This, at least, is good news. Hope there are no permanent injuries among the officers. And I didn't know initially two cops were trapped inside, but they have gotten them out and they're safe. Link to comment

This is probably why it lasted so long. If there weren't hostages, this guy would have been toast in the first 30 minutes. Link to comment

No need to go in guns blazing if the outcome is all the officers are home safe at the end of the day. Good job to this PD. Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted August 15, 2019 Author Share Posted August 15, 2019 I would be interested in knowing if his sister that he shot and killed that night had cocaine in her blood also. Or....was he doing this on the side and the people he was with didn't know he was using it. Link to comment
