Default 'Mass shooting' averted at California hotel after worker warns police

Well done the Hotel Worker.


[A potential mass shooting may have
been prevented in California after a
hotel employee reported a disgruntled
colleague who had threatened to shoot
everyone he saw in the building, police have said.
Rodolfo Montoya, 37, who worked at
the Marriot hotel, Long Beach,
was arrested at his home in nearby
Huntington Beach, where officers found
a stash of weapons and ammunition.]

As impressive as that sounds, to me the fact that there's opportunity FOR there to be 8 mass shootings is terrifying.

Do you think the would-be shooter would have complied?

Whether or not something needs to be done with the gun laws in the USA, it's not as simple as telling people to hand in their weapons.

Tbh it's gonna take generations for the USA to get over their obsession with guns.

And well done to the Hotel worker, it must've been terrifying to think that you were gonna be another statistic in another American mass shooting if they hadn't have done something to prevent it.

The second ammendment was put in place to stop tyrannical governments. Trump is apparently a tyrannical dictator. So why would you want the American citizens to hand over their only protection to a dictator, so that he and his authorities are the only ones who have guns?

The guns don't magically disappear if people hand them in, Trump and his authorities will still have guns. But now they'll have no resistance.

Your plan is very submissive and defeatest.
