They are banned on metro. Seems that criminals don’t care.
I guess we need more education of the public about where they can carry their guns.

Some people belong behind bars and "kids" who are doing this stuff should be in reform school where they can get a proper education and adult supervision. Enough with this social justice garbage. What a bunch of garbage people have fallen for, just ridiculous.
I never thought this before but I think we need a federal rule — basically a protectorate with the military until we can get it together. I’m on the Left but would welcome it in a heartbeat. The last time things were good is when the National Gard was on the streets after Biden inauguration. Bowser is not doing anything. The Council is useless. Bring in the federales

What are you talking about? It happened at the Potomac Avenue Metro stop at 14th and Pennsylvania Ave. SE. One stop from Eastern Market and two stops away from Capitol South which is where you get off to go to the US Capitol building.
I apologize. I was wrong. I thought this was near Potomac Ave in Alexandria.
In this case, it wouldn’t surprise me if this guy will be on the street tomorrow.
DC makes it both difficult to own a gun legally, AND gun crimes are regularly pled down to nothing. Does anyone else see a contradiction? We also do NOTHING in this city to address mental illness. So sorry for the family of the dead and injured.

+1. We left dc after 10 years last year and now watch the city’s demise from afar. It’s sad and pathetic

What a weird take. The shooter was on a bus, and there’s a good chance he got on it in a different ward. Read the article. His shooting spree continued in the metro station.

This country has a disgusting gun problem that needs to be solved. I wish I knew how, but we have to do something! This man should have never had access to any sort of weapon.

This story was buried at the bottom of the home page most of the day. And they won't identify the shooter. What is up with that?

Yeah it happened in Ward 6, which Charles Allen represents. And you're right, Charles' work as Chair of the Judiciary and Public Safety committee last session will probably release this man on the streets to be a killmonger tonight. Recall him Ward 6.

Then how did this happen???? Did it even happen?
Because if guns are already banned on metro, this should’ve been impossible. Like dividing by zero impossible.

The victim was a 64 year old mechanic. He intervened and lost his life. Damn.
The shooter sounded absolutely nuts from witness accounts in the Wapo article, and had shot at other people as well. Mental illness mixed with easy access access to guns.

We should ban shooting people too. That’s why this must’ve happened- he didn’t know it was against the law to shoot people.
Yes, I’m sure banning guns will work. No one ever gets shot in places where guns are banned. It literally NEVER happens. Ever.
