"high-powered rifle" -- Fudds, that's what your deer rifle will be called after they take the ARs and AKs.

 

[hunt4riches]

All rifles (except 22LR) are "high powered". I hate that term as much as "sharp knives". The pants-wetting sissy generations want everyone straight-jacketed in padded rooms for everyone's safety. Some rifles have higher power than others, but compared to pistols, they are all high-powered. This is how anti's will attack rifles. Remember, gun laws aren't about logic, common sense, safety or practicality - they are about disarmament.

High-powered sounds more dramatic. This coming from the same people who will say after the shooter is caught that his mama didn't hug him enough.

Back in the day, we fought heathens and redcoats with HIGHPOWERED SMOKEPOLES.......

Anyone want to take a guess at what the ethnicity of the assailant is when they apprehend him? Or the "gender"?

Queue up the "He didn do nuthin" crowd...

Yet they get extremely upset if you ask if it is a fatherless home.

I don't know. This is rural Kentucky. I'm thinking red neck with a deer rifle pissed of at the cop for giving him a DUI or something.

My guess is a white male 32-55 years old wearing WalMart jeans and a Tractor Store plaid shirt.

Probably got his ammo at Wally World also.

Don't bet on it.

Most Dindu's can't do the math to zero a rifle for sniping.

Besides the Beltway Sniper of course.

Dindu's are mostly spray and pray types.

On average, according to anthropologists, a certain part of their brain is smaller than the rest of us.

Could be right? sniping is a white mans game. I could be wrong but this reminds me of another similar incident in Kentucky( I think Kentucky). Some guy dragged a log across a road and sniped a deputy years ago I believe?

 

[MetalliCorey]

Any word on the officer?

 

[ReggieB9mm]

Plasma rifle in the 40 watt range…

 

[highlander]

How do they know it was a "high powered" rifle round.
Maybe they have found a bullet that passed thru the passenger window even then just a bullet doesn't necessarily mean a "high powered" rifle.

 

[DarkNet]

Officer wasn't actually shot. Hit by glass.

Suspect taken into custody.

 

[tuna]

So it was high powered glass?

Ok, may it WAS a Dindu wanna be sniper.

A legit sniper would have been more successful.

 

[pastera]

So they airlifted the guy who got a cut on his arm from the shattered glass?
Not a doctor but I'm thinking that might have been a little overkill.
No bandaids nearby?

If it isn't a sharp knife, it's a spatula.

IIRC, Beltway Sr was ex-mil. Most dirtbags, regardless of color, creed or sexual orientation, can't fire a gun properly. It's not part of their Maslow's hierarchy of needs.

Seems like gang on gang violance

See... He did somethin.
His sister, a niece, and probably that sheep his neighbor owns, with the purdy mouth.

Buys his clothes same place he buys car batteries.
