not violence, but this is pretty exciting and terrifying at the same time.

Remington has a few models with the TrackingPoint attached and they sell at the $6,000 area. And there is a 500-yard limiter installed.

At this point you're still dollars ahead purchasing a 308, good glass, and good range time. Shooting a $6k rifle that shoots $5-7 rounds? You're either too rich to actually need one or you're the government.

Taking all the brain out of shooting makes it easier to mechanize our defenses. First step towards DARPA making a cyber-soldier!

Didn't watch the vid, is that about the auto turrents in the DMZ over in Korea that just gun down anything that moves within a certain radius?

**SamanosukeShiva** · 2013-12-30 16:25

it's a scope that automatically adjust for windspeed/whatever factor needed to hit a target at long range, essentially you can be an excellent marksman/sniper without any prior experience with gun.

I looked around and I didn't see this posted yet and I was surprised. Sorry if it was posted somewhere else already.

Some guy is texting his daughter during the previews before a movie, old retired cop gets pissed off. They exchange words. Ex cop goes and tells management. Ex cop returns they argue some more. Guy throws popcorn at the ex cop and the ex cop responds by shooting the guy. 25 people in the theater. The only injuries were the wife of the guy who put her hand up as the gun came out and the guy. Really sucks to hear about something like this. Two peoples lives are over and a girl will grow up without her father because of a stupid argument.

Also lolflorida.

Another school shooting:

http://abcnews.go.com/US/student-sho...ry?id=21526542

A middle school student opened fire in his gym with a shotgun today and critically wounded two students in Roswell, N.M., according to authorities.

The injured were a 13-year-old girl and a 12-year-old boy who were "simply sitting in their gym waiting to go to class," New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez said. The shooting occurred shortly before class was to begin at Berrendo Middle School.

The Eastern New Mexico Medical Center confirmed it treated two patients, who were then air lifted to the University Medical Center in Lubbock, Texas, located about 175 miles from the middle school.

A spokesperson for UMC said the boy, who the governor said was 12, is out of surgery and is listed in critical condition. The girl, 13, is also being treated at the hospital and is listed in serious condition, according to the spokesperson. A school staff member suffered a minor injury and declined treatment.

The names of the shooting victims have not been released.

Odiee Carranza, an eighth grade student, told the Associated Press a boy bumped into her as he rushed toward the gym and apologized to her. When the boy entered the gym, Carranza said she saw him pull a gun out of a band instrument case and begin shooting.

She said he shot another boy twice in the face and shoot a girl in the arm.

"Then he shot up in the sky, then dropped the gun, and then some teacher grabbed the kid that had the gun," Carranza told the AP.

Authorities said the weapon was a shotgun and the shooter was a 12-year-old seventh grader.

The governor said a school staffer and an off-duty New Mexico State Police lieutenant who was dropping his child off at the school were instrumental in helping to end the active shooter situation before more people were injured.

New Mexico State Police Chief Pete Kassetas said by the time his deputies arrived around 8: 11 a.m., "the weapon, which we believe is a shot gun, was laid on the ground."

The alleged shooter was taken into custody and the chief said it is believed he acted alone.

Kassetas did not disclose a possible motive, but said investigators are "looking at social media outlets and the different forms of communication these kids use to talk to each other."

After the scene was secure this morning, students were bused from the school to Roswell Mall where police said parents will be allowed to pick up their children. Authorities asked parents to stay away from the school during the investigation.

The Roswell incident is the latest school shooting to rattle the country. It comes one month after a gunman open fire at Arapahoe High School in Colorado.

Police said Karl Pierson, 18, who was armed with a shotgun, machete and had Molotov cocktails in his backpack, was intent on seeking "revenge" on the school's debate team instructor who had dropped him from the team.

Pierson came upon senior Claire Davis, 17, while looking for his intended target. He critically wounded the high school senior before police said he took his own life.

Davis died on Dec. 21 from her injuries.

The Arapahoe shooting took place on the eve of the first anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting in Newtown, Conn., in which 27 people - most of them first graders - were killed.

The Arapahoe shooting also took place on the eve of the first anniversary of the Sandy Hook school shooting in Newtown, Conn., in which 27 people - most of them first graders - were killed.

Someone do me a fav and translate this chick's fb posts for me:

This did happen, not like the SHH. my best friends niece goes to.school here, although I don't disagree with the gun grab comment.

Barbara the other ones may have been false flags, this happened, it is for.real, and if you watch the parents, there is sincerity we didn't see at sh. My friend talked to.her niece and it was terror she felt seeing it happen. I'm sure they're coming for.our guns, but this happened.

I can't tell if she is saying Sandy Hook never happened, or just that it was worse.

If she is saying SH never happened I am taking her off my fb before I do something I will regret. She is just someone I knew in elementary school, but the thing is, our principal back in the day is Sandy Hook's principal. I really, really get pissed when people try to pretend that incident didn't happen.

There's a conspiracy theory circulating on Facespace about how it was all an elaborate hoax concocted by the POTUS to push for tighter gun regulations. The person who shared it the most was an old friend who's now a vegan. Coincidence? I think not!

Ya I know about the conspiracy theory. But this is something that happened really really close to home. Pretty much everyone I know from back home knows someone who went/goes to that school. So to pretend like it didn't happen just really infuriates me.

Thing is what she said is weird. in one post she makes it sound like SH didn't happen. Then the next one she says her friend's niece "it was terror she felt seeing it happen." Which makes it sound like she either thinks SH was worse than this incident or idk, niece was threatened to pretend it happened?

I am not the kind of person to call someone out on FB, especially to those from my hometown which can cause all kinds of headaches for my mom (the girl's son is actually one of my mom's students atm), but I really don't want to have anything to do with that kind of person if she really believes it was staged.

**Clash Perez** · 2014-01-15 02:34

False flag would imply that she thinks that the Sandy Hook shooting was real, but the shooter's claimed motive is dubious. Blame it on the CIA/FBI/NSA etc.; standard tinfoil stuff.

Or maybe she just doesn't have any idea what the words she's using really mean, which is also falls under the banner of standard tinfoil stuff.
