Moscow Concert Hall Attack. (Videos)
Stuff and info still being gathered, so the 72-hour waiting period for facts still applies. (Updating numbers as I find out)
93115133 people are now known to have died in a terrorist attack on the Crocus City Hall on the outskirts of Moscow. 107 people are in hospital, with about 60 of them described as being in a serious condition. Authorities are yet to identify them all.
A number of gunmen stormed the concert hall, opening fire, and later set the venue ablaze. The Russian Investigative Committee said its preliminary findings were that the terrorists had used automatic weapons and flammable liquid to start the fire. There had been earlier reports that explosives were used.
Russian media has reported that president Vladimir Putin has been informed that 11 suspects have been detained, including four people directly responsible for the attack. A Russian lawmaker has claimed the two suspects were detained after a car chase in the Bryansk region, to the south-west of Moscow. The reports remain unverified.
I am willing to bet many more were killed, especially in the fire.
You reckon they would have learned from the Chechen attack at Dubrovka theatre in 2002 and many others, but as with any “good” government, they know real solutions require transferring power to the citizens and they are fearful selfish bitches when it comes to that.
Updated: Another video added (3rd in the list). If I find other relevant stuff, I will add it here.

Oleg Volk sure takes damned good photos.
But besides making me look badass, the photo gives you details of the DP28 worth looking. For example, note the front sight; originally the gun was shooting a bit left and since the rear sight is fixed for drift, it is the front one that gets adjusted which was literally done with a mallet. Then you have the ejection port that sends the brass down rather than sideways. And lastly and most interesting is the gas system: If you look right in front of the bipod, you can see that is more like an exhaust pipe coming out of the barrel and sending gases into the bolt down that tube. The gun is stupidly simple, but that is full auto for you.

That answers the questions about Guns On Campus having a chilling effect on the free exchange of ideas.
Just the opposite. Ain’t that something?
Those who forget the past…. Is Bryan Malinowski the new Ken Ballew?
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. – The brother of the Little Rock airport executive shot by federal agents serving a search warrant says he is fearful his brother may not survive and questions the timing of the incident.
Bryan Malinowski, 53, was injured in a shootout with agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives at his west Little Rock home Tuesday morning.
His older brother, Matthew Malinowski, told NBC News reporter Deon Hampton that the family was not sure if the Clinton National Airport executive director was “going to make it in the next 24 hours” while confirming his brother was shot in the head during the exchange of gunfire.
…
“There’s something fishy here. The ATF went after him in the worst possible way,” he told NBC News reporter Deon Hampton. “There’s no reason why they couldn’t have arrested him at work at the airport.”
…Malinowski also said it seemed odd that his brother could be entangled with the law, noting that he made more than $250,000 a year in salary, lived in a nice suburb with collections of guns and coins and was well connected in the Natural State.
The little beep of memory kept going off in my brain since yesterday and just earlier the data came through: This smells about the same as the Ken Ballew case where ATF raided his house for allegedly owning unregistered grenades. It turned out to be some plastic grenades and some practice ones which you could legally find (and probably still) at gun shows. Ballew got shot in the head, but survived and had a tough life after. He sued the Federal Government, but as usual for the times, the ATF could do no wrong in the eyes of a judge. Ballew was a fan of muzzle loaders and as such had black powder and caps in his home which the Feds and the judge used to excuse the warrant and the consequences under the nefarious “constructive possession” argument.
“This Court finds that several of the grenades seized by the federal agents on June 7, 1971 in Ballew’s apartment, in combination with components likewise seized, were firearms as defined in the National Firearms Act and had not been registered as required by law.”
