I could understand this statement if it was Newport News but Norfolk? Come on.


This could happen at Christopher Newport and would have nothing to do with it being in Newport News. Gun violence can happen anywhere, any day. And it is increasingly happening on college campuses, even in seemingly “safe” towns.


PP is referring to the statement that someone doesn't want their kid living in Norfolk. Newport News is also called Newport Nam for a reason.


Yeah, I know what they’re referring to. If you don’t want your kid living in Norfolk or Newport News because of street crime, fine. But that has nothing to do with this thread.


Chill.

Start your own thread. This is being investigated as an act of terrorism.

Time for Kash Patel to put his big boy jacket on.


He's too hungover from partying with gay hockey players to do that. But he DID manage to gut the FBI counterintelligence tasked with monitoring Iranian threats: https://www.cnn.com/2026/03/03/politics/patel-fbi-national-security-division-firings-iran

This is the 22-year-old in charge of preventing terrorism at home: https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-dhs-thomas-fugate-cp3-terrorism-prevention

Feel safer?

(This regime actively wants a large-scale terror attack so it has some reason to declare a national emergency and cancel the midterms).

Right? This administration is not serious about counterterrorism and national security. They've pushed the professionals out and gutted our defenses. Clowns are in charge. And yes, they'd love an attack so they can justify an authoritarian crackdown. Timothy Snyder has been writing about it -- they want a Reichstag Fire.

Start my own thread when I responded to someone’s comment? You make zero sense. Hope your day gets better.

They put a 22 year old with no experience in a crucial anti terrorism role.

If you make guns harder to buy then they are ALSO harder for your already-in-the-country-former-national-guardsman-with-known-links-to-terrorists-organization terrorist to buy.

HTH

Truly, it very much feels like a decent background check, which every responsible gun owner should be OK with, would have prevented or flagged this. But, ya know, the pro-life party doesn’t actually care about people living.

Why exactly? Do you also not want your kid to live in a suburb outside Detroit MI??

He’s a convicted felon. Whatever gun he used, he’s not able to own it legally.

Trust me we don’t want your kid either

One of the best things about the 757 is that it is as yet untainted by dc snob ethos

He’s attacked a roomful of ROTC cadets. Of course they did.

They were ROTC students and fought back.
