Lewiston, Maine: The morning news broke that a Maine shooting claimed the lives of at least 18 people last night (death toll expected to rise), along with 13 others injured. The suspect is a firearms instructor and US Army Reservist named Robert Card. He is currently at large, with an intensive manhunt ongoing to find him. But there is more to the story than just a gun owner and veteran gone mad. And of course, anti-gunners are screaming for an ‘assault weapons ban,’ including Biden.
🇺🇸 Residents in Lisbon Maine wake up in lockdown in order to place a massive manhunt for Robert Card which continues in connection with last nights mass shooting.

Card’s 2013 Subaru Outback was located at a boat launch in Lisbon, Maine. The initial incident took place in Lewiston 1) at Schemengees Bar and Grill and 2) the Just-In-Time Recreation bowling alley. An arrest warrant was issued for 8 counts of murder, but the court was still identifying victims, so the total counts will likely be at least 18, maybe more.
Authorities created a perimeter around the boat launch where his vehicle was found and began searching the Sabattus River. The entire county is on lockdown- banks closed, events cancelled, etc.
Mental issues in the Maine shooting
The gun control fools will skip the fact that Mr. Card spent two weeks in a mental facility because he “heard voices” in his head that told him to shoot up a local National Guard Base. The facility let him go. And the left will no doubt use this to vilify veterans and gun owners.
The official said commanders in the Army Reserve’s 3rd Battalion, 304th Infantry Regiment became worried in mid-July that Robert Card was acting erratically while the unit was training at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point in New York.
The official said military commanders became concerned about Card’s safety and asked for the police to be called. New York state police took Card to the Keller Army Community Hospital at West Point for evaluation, the official said. Fox
The Army recognized a problem, but Mr. Card was released after a two-week stint in the facility. Why? And did the facility give him drugs that could have exacerbated the problem? He is a firearms instructor so obviously has access to multiple weapons. The Maine shooting comes with numerous questions.
The responsibility for this lies solely with the perpetrator. But mental illness can strike when people least expect it.
Mental issues are one thing specifically mentioned in the law about possessing guns. Mental issues have a long history of escaping scrutiny by authorities. Part of that is Hipaa, the federal law against revealing information about patients. Then there is the pesky fact that mental patients are not treated as arrestees – so there are usually no fingerprints and their “rap sheets” are not generally available to law enforcement unless the specific officers or medical employees know them. There are laws that govern such situations, but military medical facilities may not always follow the criteria.
The manhunt is ongoing, and though the region is remote, eventually they will find him.
