Active shooter situation ongoing at Illinois manufacturing company: officials
Elizabeth Zwirz
By Elizabeth Zwirz | Fox News

   

An active shooter situation is underway in Aurora, Illinois, officials said Friday.

Aurora police confirmed to Fox News that there is an active shooter “on the west side” of Aurora.

The situation, which was verified by the Kane County Sheriff’s Office, unfolded at Henry Pratt Company, WLS-TV reported. The business is a manufacturing company, according to WMAQ-TV.

It wasn’t immediately clear whether anyone was injured.

The Chicago branch of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) tweeted that they were “responding to a reported active shooter situation at a manufacturing company in Aurora, Ill.”

Sad, I'm sorry to hear this, this is the first time, I heard a death toll mentioned but it sounds like there was a lot of shootings. I'll remember the victims in my thoughts and prayers.

My main handgun, a Ruger, came with a laser.  Don't break into my house because I won't miss.

The bodies aren't even cold yet and already the gun grabbers want to outlaw the laser feature (and of course, eventually, all firearms). 

Good on you to have the best protection.  If I wasn't blind as a bat, I'd own a gun.

BREAKING: Illinois Shooter Was Not Allowed To Own A Gun
https://townhall.com/tipsheet/mattvespa/2019/02/16/breaking-illinois-shooter-was-not-allowed-to-own-a-gun-n2541608


Somewhat similar to the Devin Kelly TX church shooter case. Fix NICS was signed last March.

The law applies penalties to government agencies for not reporting to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS).

I wonder if someone will be held responsible.

And this why all the extensive background checks, all the laws in the world won't prevent someone with a gripe from getting a hold of a firearm. 

Gun control, gun confiscation don't work.  All they do is prevent law abiding citizens from protecting themselves.
