Foily Hat Time (again)
Disclaimer: This is entirely speculative.
Brooklyn Councilman James Davis, a former New York City police officer, died after being shot twice in the chest.
Seems to me if he was shot twice, he was likely targeted. The killer is still on the loose. Mr. Davis was also a gun control sort of guy.
I wonder if some gun-nut had enough of New York’s oppressive gun laws and decided to commit an act of violence. Ironically, this wouldn’t do much to gain support of your position.
Again, pure speculation but it will be interesting to see what unfolds. In addition pro-gun folks will likely have to start dealing with Remember James Davis from politicians for a while.
Update: It was a political rival. Some reports said the shooter was shot by Davis. Now, the say the shooter was shot by the police. I still say it will get interesting.
