it would be good if he was in the room when the shooter dropped the "clip" to reload then he could take him out.

Newsflash, dummy: If you know so much about firearms you'd know the correct term is "magazine" not "clip".

What a bloviating, useless blabbermouth.

the shooter had 15 other guns to choose from, all loaded, so he didn't really have to reload his automatic weapon. He could have taken "He Man" Hannity out with any other gun he had. But Sean would never think of that. His testosterone is taking over, and he wants FOX's viewers to feel safe that HE'S diligently protecting them now. What a specious toad he is.

FOX "News" isn't an actual news organization. They push "alternative facts", and straight, unadulterated, right-wing propaganda. So sure, they would have a difficult time pushing a right-wing narrative here. There isn't a foreigner to blame, no "liberal" bogey-man, no zoned-out meth-head, no mentally deranged (except for themselves) career criminal, no scary Black man. Nope, their "usual suspects" aren't available for this massive, senseless slaughter. They have to all get together and create a brand new enemy which Americans must fear from now on.

Fuck-wits.

But whatever weapons they had were useless against a madman shooting from the 32nd floor with an arsenal of automatic weapons...
