Another Nutbag Shoots People

No huge surprise there, I should think. The end result of sorting out how and when the AR jammed (if it was indeed the AR and not something else) is yet to be told. The publicized shot showing the AR on the pavement is clearly a 30 round mag, leaving me to wonder if there wasn't some extrapolation by a numbnuts reporter.

But the jam is no surprise, either, no matter what it was. He didn't have any of his weapons long enough to have satisfied any reliability testing or break-in without some diligent range time, about which we've heard nothing I've seen.

Then there's that statement about squirting out 200 rounds in under 2 minutes someone (probably an anti) made. I wonder if even a well practiced AR gunny could do it needing to switch mags. (Now, were it an M16, well, even then mag changes would be slowing it down.)

‘He Provided Me the Opportunity to Survive’: Woman Describes How Military Boyfriend Took a Bullet for Her During Shooting

A woman who survived the deadly Aurora, Co. movie theater shooting said her military member boyfriend laid on top of her during the gunfire, taking a bullet and sacrificing his own life to save hers.

Jansen Young said she didn’t realize at first what was happening when alleged gunman James Holmes opened fire on the theater where she was seeing “The Dark Knight Rises” with boyfriend Jon Blunk, according to NBC’s “Today.”

She described an object first sailing into the theater over the audience, which police have said contained an unknown gas.

“It flew up behind us…and it just went boom,“ Young said Saturday on ”Today.”

When the shooting started, she said Blunk immediately shoved her to the ground.

“He pushed my hips to the floor and he’s like, Jansen, Jansen get down and stay down,” she said. “He kind of pushed me in under the seat and pushed on me real hard and he was laying up against me, he kind of whispered in my ear, ‘There’s someone with a gun and he’s shooting people.’”

“I didn’t know, but he knew immediately that it was real,” she said.

Young said it wasn’t until she tried to get out of the theater herself that she realized Jon was lifeless.

“I tried to shake him and was saying his name, and like Jon, Jon we’ve got to go,” she said. “I kind of poked my head up at that point and realized oh my gosh, nobody’s in here, it’s just us. There were like a few other heads here and there I could see leaving the theater but really the theater was empty…that’s when I got out and I kept thinking that was…oh my gosh, I think Jon just took a bullet for me.”

“I was thinking about what a great hero he was and he provided me the opportunity to survive,” she said. “He wasn’t just a hero last night, he has been a hero forever,” she said.

She said Blunk had planned to re-enlist in the military, telling her once, “Jansen, I was born to serve my country.”

“He was re-enlisting it was just what he wanted to do and he loved it,” she said. “He saved me and he gave me the opportunity to live, he would have done it for anyone that day…that’s just who he was.”

 

It looks like the Airman didn't survive his wounds.

Make that 3 confirmed military deaths

Another of the fatal victims was John Thomas Larimer, a service member in the Navy who was serving at his first post, said his father, Scott Larimer.

A Navy notification team officially informed the family in Crystal Lake, Illinois, around midnight Saturday, a statement from the family said.

Petty Officer Third Class Larimer joined the Navy in June 2011.

"I am incredibly saddened by the loss of Petty Officer John Larimer––he was an outstanding shipmate, "said Cmdr. Jeffrey Jakuboski, Larimer's commanding officer. "A valued member of our Navy team, he will be missed by all who knew him. My heart goes out to John's family, friends and loved ones, as well as to all victims of this horrible tragedy."

On Saturday, an Air Force spokesman confirmed the death of another service member, Staff Sgt. Jesse Childress.

Childress was an Air Force reservist on active duty with the 310 Force Support Squadron.
