Two days after the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, a motive for the 20-year-old shooter’s actions has not been identified, the FBI said — but authorities are learning more about the suspected gunman, as well as the days and moments leading up to the shots being fired.

    This is super, SUPER normal for this area. Seriously. This is like announcing the shooter had a dog and propane grill in the back yard.

      I mean, “more than a dozen” covers a lot of ground. Does that mean 15? Sure, that’s probably normal. 50? That’s weird.

          To this American, yes, 15 is a weird number of guns to have. But some types of folk, especially in rural areas, are just different.

        13-23 guns. If there were 24 or more they’d have said a couple dozen or dozens

        50 is not weird, it’s just like any other hobby, and you can’t shoot really more than 1 at a time accurately anyways.

            I mean it’s really not. The is nothing wrong with liking mechanical things. Is it weird to have a collection of anything?
