If you feel that strongly about weapons I hope you are on the steps of the Capital everyday,
demanding the ending of all military engagements and droning done abroad by this country.

I told you to do that as you are clueless. As for china go look at all the knife and axe attacks that are KILLING children in china. They are regulating knife purchases now which is where you fools want to take us. You have no sense just read what drivel is fed to you then go spread your propoganda nonsense. If you care YOU go find the numbers. I've already looked into it. Census data, FBI data, all there for you to peruse along with all the cases of mass killing going back 100 years. They weren't all done with your evil assault rifles like you claim but you don't really care. They tell you we must ban them so we must is your battle cry.

Which means that many of victims would have survived their injuries.

So no, a .22 could not have accomplished the same.
We're running around in circles humoring these childish morons with so much invested in their little power toys.

Which jammed in the theater shooting, thank God. The same type rifle jammed in the Portland shooting as well. The high capacity magazine used in the AZ mall shooting also jammed.

They have to feel "manish" somehow, and that is their only way, obviously. Sad.

Oh well, thank God, now we know we can rest easy, since the precious weapons of death will simply jam, and all the armed civilians surrounding the next mass killer (due later this week, I believe) will take out the perp without a single casualty among other bystanders.

This Newtown coward had enough rounds to kill almost all in the school. The fact cops got there about 7 minutes after the 1st call no doubt, saved dozens of lives, as we know he killed 26 inside 10 minutes.

PS, It would not be up to 6 year olds to tackle him, but rather to the remaining adults.
Odd how he stopped shooting when the guys with guns arrived. These no gun zones are magnets for killers. Why folks can't realize that I don't know.

In reality a shotgun would have been the best weapon for this scenario yet I don't hear anyone wanting to ban shotguns. Handguns cause most of the gun related deaths and nobody wants to ban handguns. Rifles which are responsible for the least amount of deaths are the ones folks want taken away. That is why there is no common sense or reality even being looked at in this situation it is all knee jerk idiocy.

Thank goodness Bushmasters quality control sucks so bad.

It was a mall shooting in Oregon.


I can't believe how ignorant you are!!! You called it AZ!!!! You really shouldn't be allowed to talk about something being that you are so ignorant..it's just ignorant, you know, that you got the state wrong!!



(The preceding was satire referencing gun nuts obsession with everyone knowing as much about their toys as they do, ie calling an AR15 an AK15.)
