"He walked in with 498 rounds of ammunition...."


Egads....think if he'd had another 2 rounds how much damage could be inflicted.....  Ah the Drive By Media in all its glory......

Also Wednesday, the brother of Michael Brandon Hill, said Hill previously threatened to shoot him and that he suffers from mental disorders.

Timothy Hill told NBC News his brother "was bipolar and suffered from ADD," and that the two have not spoken recently.

Davis said Hill told investigators he was on medication.

"He indicated that he was on medication and had stopped taking it," Davis said.
...
A sheriff's official in Henry County, Ga., south of Atlanta, said Hill was also charged there in March with making terroristic threats — a felony in Georgia. The indictment is for an incident between Dec. 30 and 31 of 2012 to "unlawfully threaten to commit the crime of murder, a crime of violence, for the purpose of terrorizing another."

Even though the putative shooter was experiencing withdrawal symptoms after stopping medication for a mental illness I have no doubt that this situation will be used to encourage more legislation that will attack the 2nd Amendment.   For our safety, of  course.

The rifle was a .762-caliber AK-47-style weapon, manufactured by Romarm/Cugar.

I bet that .762 kicks like a mule.  Plus carrying around 498 rounds of that stuff would be pain in the butt.

So he figured with that much he could hit at least 2 people then ?
