Borderline Shooting And Bloomberg Threw A Party to Celebrate

USA – -(AmmoLand.com)- The Borderline Shooting. A cause for celebration? How about the facts.

The anti-gun left has hosted a prep-rally to celebrate the shooting that took place at the Borderline Bar and Restaurant. What is wrong with these people? Friends of mine who lost family were told not to come as this was a gun control rally, not a memorial.

Infact all they did was chant F**K TRUMP, and F**K the NRA.

Held at a local school, and packed with children to fill out the seats it looked more like a Hitler Youth Rally than a memorial.

One of the stated goals, according to organizers was to raise support for ending the gun show at the local Ventura County Fairground and forgetting the fact that in CA you cannot buy a gun in CA at a gun show. Their bigger goal is to “destroy the gun culture in Ventura County.” In case you’re wondering all the local liberal politicos were there to celebrate the mass shooting.

So, what happened at the Borderline? Why would ANYONE celebrate it? Here is what I’ve been told.

The fact is a disturbed young man went on a shooting spree. But it’s more than that. In April of last year, the local Sheriffs interviewed him. Declared him competent to own a gun.
The Shooter chose the Borderline because it was a gun free zone. In CA Gun Free includes on and off duty law enforcement. Even with 10 or so law enforcement officers in the building, they were more than likely unarmed to comply with the business owners request. They left their firearms in the trunk of their cars.

The shooter didn’t just randomly shoot people after they were down several were executed by the killer. He was shot while on the ground, executed in cold blood. There must be some history there as the shooter selected his targets.

The Shooter saw on security cameras when a local patrolling sheriff arrived — Ventura County Sheriff’s Sgt. Ron Helus was ambushed by the shooter as he entered the building.

This brave man never had a chance, the shots that hit him forced him into the path of shots fired by a CHP officer. The CHP officer had no way of knowing about the shooter’s ambush. The officer went in and is a credit to the community. One can only imagine the misplaced guilt this excellent officer carries.

Had any of the law enforcement inside been armed the death toll would he been a fraction of what was. Sgt Helus would be alive today. Still a tragedy, yet another a loss that could have been avoided. But, a LOT less deadly than what happened if peaceful people had been armed.

As it was the law enforcement on the scene broke windows and lowered people as best they could to the ground. A few officers took the 18-foot drop out the back to help people who had fled the building through the broken windows. They treated sprains and broken legs while others stood tall to the end making sure as many people were saved as possible.

Like so many tragedies before there were MORE than enough warning signs for this to be prevented. Why we keep allowing mass shooting is a mystery to me. We do allow them when all the signs are there, and we elect to do nothing.

So tell me what is there here to celebrate? NOTHING! Using the loss to families and community to promote your political agenda is so fundamentally wrong as to be unthinkable to most of us, but not the anti-gun left.

Once again it is a Blomberg backed group passing out the party hats and serving the cake to celebrate murder. These people have no souls; they stand on the bodies of the dead to better scream their hate.

So PARTY ON you sickos.

This story is so full of miss truths it’s ridiculous. My Son was in that bar. None of the stuff presented here that went on inside is true. I’m as conservative as you can get. Retired Military and I support the cause. But this is the stuff that pisses me off. Quit sting things as fact, when you don’t know what the Fock your talking about…..all your doing is giving the left loonies more ammo to attack us. STOP DOING THIS !

DBM

Most all I’ve pointed out comes from people who were there or surveillance video.I have more than one source for each fact. I waited until I verified all the facts from two sources before writing the article. The Brady Campaign rally was the last piece. I needed to see how it went. I’m glad your child is OK.

I am Bruce Boyer, a candidate for sheriff in Ventura County. We need to talk. watch the video and please reply.

i probably going to regret saying this,karma’s a bitch but i wish bloomberg would just drop dead.

Deplorable Bill

Simple facts. Fact, there are bad, evil people out there. Fact, if you should be parted from your tool(s), you remove from yourself a mired of options and choices. Un armed your choices are limited more so than if you were armed. In the above situation, choices were few: Run, hide or die or all the above. This sad lack of options was/is because of “gun free zones.” Had you been armed, you would have had all the previous choices along with the choice to engage/stop/forcibly detain the shooter and live. You can’t out run a bullet. As illegal as… Read more »

i would not relieve myself at a “post office” even if i could, or at any other goober-ment s-hole gfz

Avoid gun free zones, nobody need to go into a bar…. I avoid any place I can’t carry a gun unless I absolutely need to go there like a post office or a court room. If my gun is not welcome, then I am not either.

Tionico

Court rooms are TRULY gun free zones, as they inspect, wand, pat down, everyone who enters, and those who are armed when they show up and declare themselves are led to a locked gun safe where they are free to place their own, take the key along with, return when their court business is concluded, use the key they’ve held, and reclaim their gun without any supervision, then leave the key in the lock for the next user. Not even the bailiff or guards are armed inside the courtroom. This is due to a case when a rowdy in-custody accused… Read more »

@Tio, except the presiding Judge. I know several judges that carry under their robes.

MB

@Tionico Would you like a cake with a file, because you are going to need one… Code of Federal Regulations – Title 39 – which is named “Conduct on Postal Property” says “No person while on postal property may carry firearms, other dangerous or deadly weapons, or explosives, either openly or concealed, or store the same on postal property, except for official purposes.” You need to read the laws before you end up in Federal prison. Here in Texas, property owners can decide gun carry access. 30.06/30.07 ( no access concealed/no access open carry. and all bars that obtain more… Read more »

Well MB, good for you.

How in the hellz of hades can a simple law or regulation trump the U S Constitution???? The 2af says shall not be, not may be…… it says perfectly that the federal government has no right or authority to regulate or legislate 2af affirmed rights. This also applies to secondary lawmakers such as states. Justice Thomas said it correctly when he stated 20k gun laws on the books were unconstitutional. Thomas Jefferson would have hauled this trash out on the white house lawn and shot them as the traitorous cur dogs they are. The camels back straw weight limit approaches… Read more »

I go a little further…

I won’t go to the post office, and I’ll never go to a courtroom (unless as a defendant, in which case I’ll be forceably disarmed, anyway). In my state, “no gun” signs do not carry weight-of-law, so I will never be without my handgun… although I always carry concealed, never open-carry.

The self appointed elitist/authoritarian criminals supporting criminals, amazing, I guess it takes one to know one from the top to the bottom.

John Dunlap

Mr. McDougall, please forgive me for correcting your use of language, but it’s important. This was not a tragedy. It was an atrocity. Tragedy implies a lack of a responsible party. This shooting was a deliberate and premeditated act of malice, aided by politicians and bureaucrats who ignore common sense measures while pursuing a campaign to render the citizen defenseless, and impotent to prevent those same politicians from turning us into chattel. Gun control advocates are guilty of aiding and abetting murder, and celebrating their handiwork. They deserve our opprobrium. They deserve to be reviled. The language we use to… Read more »

Thank you for setting that straight. It was a criminal atrocity. I am Bruce Boyer, candidate for sheriff in Ventura County. My friend Don did not make it clear that there were TEN cops inside when ’shots fired” The ARMED COPS (two were on duty) THEY ALL RAN! The cops left the college students to be executed!

Don is a Shill and Clown

Don’t worry though, those Red Flag laws the NRA is pushing would have totally prevented this and ceased the left from seeking further infringements on our rights.

Your Worst Nightmare

Hey Clown; Project much? How is your day job at Bloomberg industries? You f*&ken Hater.

Don is a Shill and a Clown with no argument

“Your Worst Nightmare” lol. Nice how you skipped the argument again Don, i see you haven’t changed at all. Though why would I need to do anything with Bloomberg? Heck I could just send the NRA some more money if I wanted gun control, Bloomberg has nothing on them. But as I said, we just have to give up a few more things, then the left will atop taking our rights, right? That’s the NRA’s plan isn’t it? That’s certainly their history, that’s what the Shills have said their plan is. When will you cowards take a stand? My worst… Read more »

Says the person who has done nothing to support the Second Amendment but provide lip service and divisiveness. How convenient.

Don is a shill and a clown with no argument who supports gun control.

Oh, do I know you? Heck I just met with one of my Senators the other day and discussed many gun control issues, and told him not to vote for AG William Barr, and a few other things. Also have been calling the other one, and my Rep. I’ve been talking with the governor as well on several issues. Also have donated to the FPC a few hundred dollars for their current fights and the GOA a slightly lesser amount. And just sent off my NRA BOD ballot. But please if you have evidence to prove otherwise I would love… Read more »

BruceBoyer for Ventura County Sheriff

My friend Don did not make clear that of the TEN cops who are confirmed to have been inside TWO were ON-Duty! Watch! Eight others were off duty; some were armed! If people want to tell me cops go aropund off-duty and leave their guns at home I am calling BS on that! ‘Bars that have a ‘no-weapons policy” means it applies to knives and such NOT CCWs and NOT off-duty cops! “Security” does not frisk or pat down people. They are there to deal with drunk jerks. I have done security for a hundred bars; never had ONE that… Read more »
