Agreed, but if he just held it then it just kept spraying as he try’s to regain sight picture on original target.
Just based on how the mall worker said it appeared that he was just turning and firing, I assume it was not controlled fire and just spray and pray.
For those that don’t know go to YouTube and just type Glock switch and watch how fast it all happens.

This is the problem. Self-government requires vigilance. We can't just vote and think that elected officials will do what we expect them to do. As we can see, that is dangerous.

Elected officials only care about lining their pockets. Only when it hits home (like yesterday) to their own family member, that they actually do something (pass a law, etc).

We don't have to wonder about this. I'd bet my house and a free night with my wife that they had multiple priors.

Thats not it at all. These pussies arent "hard" like they portray. They arent having face to face disagreements. They see someone across they walkway they dont like and just start shooting.

They are scared and hide behind the facade of acting like badasses just because they have a gun.

I’m sort of one of them. I’m just a mom. I don’t understand why every person shot had nothing to do with the so called “beef” and not one person shot did? If he was just a bad shot, at least ONE person he was arguing with would have been wounded, right? I’m not arguing with you. I really just want to understand.

If what I’ve read is correct he was using a Glock pistol with an illegally modified trigger. That’s a gun shooting full auto that’s not designed to be. It’s spray and pray. I doubt this guy was worried about what he hit, he was just trying to be Billy Badass and shot a bunch of innocent kids.

2 seconds until empty. A thug stoned off his arse wouldn't have that thought process.

A Glock switch modifies a semi-automatic handgun to fire fully automatic, reaching a rate of approximately 1,100 to 1,200 rounds per minute. Due to this high rate of fire, a modified handgun can discharge a standard 30-round magazine in less than two seconds, according to ATF demonstrations

Here's a visual

And would not be in a weaver or isosceles stance but holding it one handed and possibly canted.
The video you show is someone trained pushing through the gun.

I think if he meant to shoot the victims, there'd be plenty more victims. I don't think this was some sort of "random" shooting disguised as gang violence. Although that would be a bit creative on their part. I just don't see the point.

News conference is about to start.
