According to liberals, “commonsense” gun control laws will stop bad guys from getting their hands on guns. Another BS liberal narrative is that hate crimes are committed by racist white guys against minorities. In heavily gun-controlled California one thug set out to bust these narratives in one fell swoop. A black convicted felon, using an a banned assault rifle, shot up an Asian restaurant frequented by gay people because of his raging homophobia. Too bad the national media won’t cover this one because it really puts liberal nonsense into perspective.
Meet 29-year-old Stefano Markell Parker. He is a convicted felon who did prison time for murder. He appears to have only served a couple of years for killing someone and clearly he didn’t learn his lesson, which is another busted liberal narrative that scumbags can be reformed. Surely gun control, especially in California where they have the toughest gun laws in the country, would keep this guy from ever getting his hands on a firearm. Shockingly he chose to ignore those laws and got himself an “assault rifle.”
The Times of San Diego reports that Parker, dressed in a trench coat and slinging his banned assault rifle, open fired on The Asian Bistro in San Diego:
[Parker] riddled a Hillcrest restaurant with bullets from an assault rifle — sending terrified diners ducking for cover…
Bystanders made 911 calls to report seeing a man in a trench coat firing numerous rounds from a rifle into the Asian-food restaurant, shattering its front windows, about 7:40 p.m. Following the barrage of gunshots, the shooter lowered his weapon and walked off…
Then there’s this:
…investigators at the shooting scene found at least 19 .556-caliber shell casings.
If they found at least 19 shell casings, that would indicate he was using a magazine with a capacity larger than ten rounds. “High capacity” magazines are also banned in California.
Plus, this shooting appears to be motivated by hate:
The eatery is located in the busy uptown neighborhood, which is home to much of the city’s LGBTQ population.
At a news conference late Wednesday afternoon, SDPD Assistant Chief Albert Guaderrama told reporters that investigators were looking into whether the firearm assault may have been a hate crime, due to possibly anti-gay statements the suspect had posted on Facebook.
Well, that can’t be. The liberal media has assured me that hate crimes are committed by white dudes in MAGA hats and this guy is clearly black.
Somehow, even one more liberal narrative bit the dust. The left tells us that “assault rifles” were designed to kill as many people as fast as possible. Parker fired at least 19 rounds at nine people sitting in a restaurant and didn’t kill any of them. In fact, he didn’t even hit one of them. Not a single diner was hit by gunfire.
After the shooting, Parker walked around the corner and changed his clothes, but dozens of people saw him do that and were able to give police an accurate description of him. He was quickly arrested and charged with, “nine counts of attempted murder and one count each of being a felon in possession of a firearm and using a firearm in the commission of a felony.”
While he may not have killed anyone, in the 30 seconds or so it took Parker to empty his magazine, he managed to obliterate everything liberals say and think about guns and hate.
1. Criminals deserve a second chance after serving their time. BUSTED!
2. Gun control keeps guns out of the hands of bad guys. BUSTED!
3. Gun and magazine bans work to keep them out of the hands of bad guys. BUSTED!
4. Hate crimes are committed by racist white people against minorities. BUSTED!
5. Semi-automatic guns are exceptionally lethal in the hands of bad guys. BUSTED!
Parker should get a job as a fact-checker because he managed to debunk 5 liberal lies in less than a minute. I’d like to see him take on their bullshit concerning illegal immigration, terrorism, and tax cuts.
