Perfect response to the rabid gun fetishists.

Right, and that was a guy who was a school insider who had unfettered access to the school and was able to rig the whole place for demolition, buying quantities of dynamite that today would be easily accessed as well.

Since that happened once almost 100 years ago, we should just continue to let everyone have access to unlimited rounds and high capacity magazines.

I can smell the synapses of gun nuts burning as they try to justify their beloved death cult/hobby with pathetic logic, argumentation fallacies, and general insanity.

I seriously doubt that Lanza used the AR. Who didn't see him at the door with an AR in his hand? They have a security camera right? How were the teachers caught by surprise? I bet the ME was told to say it was the AR for gun grabbing reasons. How could the initial reports be that wrong about what guns were found at the scene and in his car? I don't buy it at all.

You mean like the Constitution of the United States? I didn't know that the Constitution and it's Bill of Rights was pathetic, false, or insane... sounds like you think we should just toss all of it in the garbage.

He drove right up to the front door, got out of the car with a gun in hand, and started shooting out the glass. This all happened in seconds.


The teachers and administrators were probably talking about the following weeks holiday concert or how the schools students were performing on standardized tests, not crusing survivalist websites or drooling over their next AR15 purchase.

So whether some knuckleheaded right wing fool "buys" the events of the day doesn't matter.

Right, because that's exactly what I said. Not much going on with the nuance portion of the spectrum with some of you guys, is there?

Oh, you were there? I don't buy it for one second. Banning these weapons has been a political goal. The reports I read said he buzzed in, but they didn't open the door, that's when he shot out the glass. If that's what happened, why didn't they see the AR?

You really should be ashamed of yourself. Do you have ANY decency?
