Upset with the HOA apparently, the man went ape. This does not help our 2A. Individuals who do wrong, tend to cast their shadow on many others. Look for calls to pass new laws. https://www.fox5dc.com/live-blog/news/logan-circle-active-shooting-residents-told-shelter-place

I'm angry, but my anger is with the HOA more than the shooter. According to the article, this was an ongoing issue from work authorized by the HOA and they had some input to the situation.

Hi,
Yes, tragic. I'm trying not to speculate but you wonder if the shooter (a physician?) could legally own a gun, was legally carrying, or if any laws on the books could've stopped this. But, you know, laws don't stop criminals or unstable people with criminal intent. The gun-grabbers will have a field day.
Thank you for your indulgence,
BassCliff

I don’t agree with any HOA and definitely would not buy any house that has a HOA, don’t like being told what you can or cannot do with your own house or property…….

I'm with you. Unfortunately, we ended up moving into a home which has a HOA because the inventory here is very small, and this was the only place we both really liked. On the bright side, the dues are very minimal which covers snow plowing the roads more than anything, and the CC&Rs are basic and common sense. Besides, no one really pays any attention to them anyway.
Mass shooting or not , the anti-gunners are already primed to enact all kinds of gun law bans. None of which will stop a single lunatic that decides to shoot up a place.
connections to local pd? no idea actually.
