high-capacity magazine
Notice how they never tell you what high capacity is.
A normal handgun--as in, a regular Glock 17--will have magazines that hold anywhere from 13-21 rounds in a bone-stock configuration, depending on caliber. The only firearms that don't have this kind of capacity are micro-compacts, and guns that were originally designed by John Moses Browning before WWII.
This is sleight of hand to make it seem like the perpetrator was doing something deeply nefarious, when damn near any defensive handgun is going to have a "high capacity" magazine straight from the factory.
The guy interviewed Ivan Raiklin a couple weeks ago who is the "secretary of retribution." Ivan Raiklin was on Info Wars talking with Jones about how if Trump were assassinated, it would be the best case scenario for Republicans because Vance would be the candidate then and then Republicans would commit a "cleansing."
This seems like a bit of a conspiracy against Trump but it is coming from the right.

I've said since the debate that something seems weird. It very much feels like Vance fully expects to be president, not VP. I don't know why or how that would come about, but he's not running like a typical VP.
This is the most garbage sith master/apprentice pairing I’ve ever seen
President tries to kill VP during Jan 6th
VP decides to kill President first.
"Relatively unknown, billionaire-backed, Ivy League educated politician selected by shadowy think tanks as VP to increasingly senile and incoherent Cult Leader."
Smells like the 25th amendment.
The party of conspiracy theories is eating itself due to conspiracy theories.
That seems about right.
booked at the John J. Benoit Detention Center on suspicion of possessing a loaded firearm and possessing a high-capacity magazine.
Serious question: Is that a crime?
In California, for sure.
I know in California it is. Any magazine that holds more than 10 rounds is considered "high capacity" and is illegal.
Not sure on the loaded firearm bit... California gun laws are crazy restrictive.
That's because of the risk of cancer. It's taken very seriously.
I think about moving there some times but man too much stuff causes cancer in that state. It's crazy.
Oh, but it was ok in 2009 when a guy attended an event that Obama was speaking at with an assault rifle? These Republicans sure don't like people to exercise their right to bear arms.
Yeah, because the was outside at a rally in Arizona. That would be legal today as well. There are really dramatic differences in gun laws state to state. It's kind of staggering, especially when the states border each other. California and Arizona is a great example. NH and Mass. NY and Penna.
In one state, carrying a magazine that can hold 11 bullets, even if you don't have a gun and it has no bullets actually in it, is illegal. Cross the state line, and you can openly carry an AR15 with a bullet in the chamber, safety disengaged, and a 50-round magazine in the rifle and walk down main street.
It's pretty nuts.
You have to bear them against the right people.
They found him with a shotgun and a handgun and they think they stopped an assassination attempt? Sounds like bs; you’re not going to get close enough to use those unless someone really messes up at their job.
I think it's just the media trying to conflate it with assassination attempts. I doubt anyone involved actually thinks it was, but now Trump gets to throw this crap around and his supporters will believe it.
The article quotes the sheriffs dept as saying that they stopped an assassination attempt; the media is just reporting what they said. So, it sounds like the sheriffs dept are just inflating the issue to make themselves look better, which will give the trump campaign more fuel.

And the media is doing its usual thing of not doing its job to verify claims at all and just printing whatever some asshole in a hat said at a podium.
I'm not sure what purpose the media even serves if they just report what random sheriffs say as fact, it seems downright negligent in fact.
What did dear leader do to these republicans? 😯
