The OP doesn't care about that estimated 500,000 people. Only the ones who were not allowed to protect themselves in a gun-free zone.

The Dayton shooter had a run of the mill semi auto magazine fed rifle, yes it was in a pistol or SBR (not sure since they never disclosed length) configuration.

And what the **** is an 8m3 bullet ? Please explain that one.
Now they are trolling random youtube videos. It is on boobtube so must be true.

Your choice as an American. You are free to incriminate yourself and commit suidice by cop if that is your desire.

Ain't America Great?

I live in a world where kids have been trained in active shooter drills, and quite frankly, they are sick as hell of it. In the next eight years they will all be voting age, more Boomers will die off, and the new generation will become the majority which elect representatives who will handle this problem definitively, finally, and for the future.

And.... still changes nothing about what needs done to modify or eliminate the constitution.

I notice how everyone totally deflected the question. Predictable. I also notice how those same people demonstrated brilliantly how much they care only for their guns & not for people.

And they'll never confiscate firearms in the US.

You can believe whatever, but the reality is that firearms outnumber people in our country, and the firearm itself is the best tool available for presenting a compelling case to be left alone by those who seek to harm you.

Elected representatives can't wish those firearms out of existence, they are bound by the 2nd, 4th and 5th Amendments, and they don't have the number of agents of tyranny needed even if the Constitution didn't bind them.

Voting doesn't create a new reality. It simply shuffles the plutocrat deck, like 5-10% of the incumbency at a time. There will be no gun confiscations in the US. It simply won't happen. Not in whatever years I have left anyway, and I am only 52.

It was a stupid question. Without guns, we can't protect our families. And no law is going to stop crazy people from getting guns.
The more mass shootings, the more we realize we need our guns for protection.

Laughable. The new generation is going to end inner city violence and mass shootings ?!? Right... what they will do eventually change legislation and take rights away from the law abiding... and still have the same results.

Problems only get solved when the root causes are addressed, and firearms are down on that list.
