The gunman who massacred 12 people at a country music bar in southern California on Wednesday night has been identified as a former marine.
Ian Long, 29, opened fire on the Borderline Bar and Grill in Thousand Oaks at 11.20pm. He killed 11 people inside the bar and one of the first cops on the scene before taking his own life
TMZ reports that Long, whose motive is still unclear, is a former marine.
Surivovors from the shooting said he looked ‘like he knew what he was doing’ as he repeatedly fired his Glock .45 semi-automatic pistol.
As dozens ran for their lives, hid beneath pool tables and used bar stools to shatter the windows to escape, Long continued firing and also threw smoke grenades to confuse the crowds.
When the first police officers arrived at the scene three minutes later, the gunman shot one of them multiple times before shooting himself. By the time SWAT teams arrived, he was dead. The sheriff’s sergeant who was shot later died in hospital. He was Ron Helus, a 29-year veteran.
In total, 13 are dead; 11 people inside the bar, the sheriff’s sergeant and the gunman.
The gunman was 29 and drove his mother’s car to the bar to carry out the attack.

‘trenchcoat wearing’……makes me think of Columbine
‘ex-marine’ ….. a veteran>>>>militia member? or….unstable due to ptsd? …..’take the guns away from those unstable people’!!!.., they cry… BUT ‘support the troops’ because they are fighting for our fiefdom…uh…freedom ya that’s it freedom
‘When the first police officers arrived at the scene three minutes later, the gunman shot one of them multiple times before shooting himself’……WTH? unbelievable that people fall for this same old template…
Probably a drill …..needed a distraction however if it was a real event you can bet the Zionist pigs are involved
Mary, certainly you recall the CO movie theater shooting and the “lone gunman” was found out back leaning against his car…waiting. He’s the first and only one who didn’t off himself…and that whole BS official narrative was full of holes.
My first thought on this event is , what are we NOT supposed to notice that’s going on somewhere else? Is it all the new congressional members flying to israel for their first official duty? Is it sweeping reforms to quash our Bill of Rights by the AG du jour?
I agree with you that something stinks with this….like it did in Vegas.
Never let a crisis go to waste!
