Suspect in custody but not identified?

FBI involved… why is the FBI involved in a local incident?

Hummmm… maybe it has something to do with who’s doing the stabbing!

You know… what is being reported as a “random incident.”

Those random mass-stabbing incidents that have been going on for years in Germany, France and Sweden, etc. also all have one unsurprisingly un-random element at their center…. What could that be….??

Could it be….

Nah…. They are the religion of peace!!

Nothing to see here… move along.

The pics of the suspect on the 'net appear to show a democrat looking guy with a hippy style/Mao style hat and a grungy look- like a Pantifa type.

There was "citizen involvement" in the incident in helping stop the suspect's "random" stabbings and in treating the victims, Shea said.

I'm still awaiting more information on this. Did someone walk into the store and announce that they had a holstered P320, or was it a bit more kinetic?

Anyways, Traverse City is less than a full tank's drive from Dearborn, but there are more obvious and convenient places for a terrorist attack. (Not to mention that I'd expect more than going stabby-stabby with a small pocket knife.) Occam's Razor suggests something less interesting, just like the church shooting about a month ago where the suspect wasn't immediately identified and turned it to be just a local loser.

What is " Why do you need a gun " ?

Not gonna lie - I can get pretty lazy this time of the year by zipping to the grocery store in a tank-top and running shorts with maybe a Benchmade folder clipped into the pocket in car I need to help out any damsels in distress who are being attacked by a coupon that they can't clip. It's probably long overdue to change that habit.

For those not familiar with Michigan's tourist destinations, TC is about the least likely area possible for encountering random violence (unless you consider driving in the left lane at 10 under the limit as "violence", which maybe you should). So the saying "if it could happen here, it could happen anywhere" is about as true as it gets. This is legitimately the sort of thing that should cause someone to pause and think.
 
This was not to far from my AO; a store I’ve been in countless times to get camping / hunting / food supplies as this is the only larger city within driving distance of our property / cabin/ hunting lease .

When news first broke on this yesterday it mentioned gun fire and possible explosion.

And it is strange the fbi is so involved before the wounded were taken away.

The “suspect” has that open mouth , tongue to big For mouth droopy eye look common in another MI city known for good hams and sausages. Though those I speak of don’t imbibe the flesh of the pig .
 
Highly recommend S&W model 37 for summer carry if your a shorts and t-shirt person.
That’s my brothers choice , I’ve been very pleased with size weight capacity ability to shoot well and easy carry of the 43x and clones .

Side bar and I’m well prepared to be flamed - but the PSA micro 15 round mags have worked much better for me with no gun modifications then the Shield Arms 15 round abomination ever did .
We have 6-7 that have worked perfectly in several training classes and idpa matches .
Once again Glock slow to the party and refusing to admit that the 10 rounders lose their luster when a same prices competitor makes a 15 .
