Bernarlillo Co deputies responded Sat night to a mass shooting. Two adults and three children are dead. A teenager has been arrested in connection with the crime. Few details released, except that at least one of the weapons used was an assault rifle:
I guess you accept the 4 or more number to be what mass shooting is. I can remember when these things were reported as murders or something like that but now all of a sudden the become mass shootings or is that just in the minds of leaners?
Seriously, I don't remember seeing that word, mass, used so much as it is these days. What is the reason for that. When all or most of a family is murdered by a kid who wears only camo clothes one would have to wonder why it happened especially when his last name is the same as those who were killed.
There you go --- the father and other family members including 3 children shot dead in their own home by the father's son with the father's gun.
Tell me, gun nuts, how did the father owning guns prevent this murder? They had a bunch of weapons in the house, so more guns wouldn't have. And don't tell me, well, if they had actually been carrying their weapons this wouldn't have happened. People usually don't go around carrying guns on them in their own home, and for all we know they were sleeping.
Studies have shown that guns in the home are more likely to end up in the death of those who live in the home than an "intruder". Just another occurance of this.
I was just waiting for someone to say that the solution to more killing with guns is ----- more guns ! Took all of 5 seconds.
Do you realize how stupid that is?
There were 7 minutes between the posting of the OP and the one you are squealing about. That would be at least 420 seconds as compared to your 5 seconds.
What defines "mass" now..any number greater than one ?
It is kind of a vague term... when I hear mass shooting I think of people targeted at random. Maybe the saddest thing is that due to the wide variety of shootings in this country, we actually have to have all of these different terms to describe them.
Of course we know that a military style rifle is an assault rifle....
Keep it going lefties, you are showing your ignorance.....
I really wonder if any of these people have any idea how scary the old M1 Carbine was. I bet they don't know that it was a .30 caliber weapon which was intended to be used as a sidearm by officers in WW II and Korea. I bet that many of them don't have any idea that Korea tried to turn thousands of them still in their cosmoline back to us and Obama refused to allow it to happen. They really are fairly uninformed about a lot of things. God, do I wish I could have bought one of those evil looking Carbines. Oh wait, they didn't have any of those combat appearing things on them. I wonder why old I Won wouldn't take the weapons back.
i didnt say that you did. i said there should be no gun laws, as only the law abiding will follow the law. criminals shall not follow the law.
Why does adding the word "gun" change anything? Just because some people violate laws or regulations, is not a valid reasonable not to have a particular law or regulation.
The fact that that you gun proponents don't believe that your own logic should apply to other laws a well, leads me to believe that you don't even believe your own arguments.
