Didn't he use an Assault Rifle, which people want banned - regardless of whether he got the assault rifle by passing a background check?

In other words, regardless of the point of your topic, if assault rifles were banned he still wouldn't of shot people.

No, an assault rifle is a fully automatic military weapon. Oh, come get my two AK's commie.

That is because just like with Fort Hood, San Bernardino, Tennessee recruiter, Orlando Gay Bar, all those Muslims were on the FBI radar, but the radar was turned off. Just like with this guys FBI background check.

If you are going to say something, before you open your piehole, make sure you have some facts..


Often known as America’s rifle, the AR-15 is a popular modern sporting rifle design used in hunting, competitive shooting, and home defense. AR stands for ArmaLite, the brand name of the first manufacturer of this firearm style. They sold this design in the 50’s to Colt’s Manufacturing who owns the trademarked term “AR-15.”

Time to remove more of the rights of the 2nd ammendment!

Lets pass laws that would not have stopped these crimes!

Fuck liberals....they will not stop until confiscation.

First, the weapon that the shooter used was a Ruger AR-556, which is not currently classified as a rifle. It's a semi-automatic pistol that looks like an AR-15 but isn't long enough to qualify as a rifle. Which means Alissa didn't have to go through as much paperwork as if he had purchased an AR15 rifle, according to the gun control laws in Colorado.


"The AR-15 platform weapon -- whether it's in a long gun or pistol -- essentially has the same firepower. It's a semiautomatic made for combat," said Timothy D. Lytton, a gun industry expert at Georgia State University.

"The AR-15 pistol is almost sort of a novelty. Essentially it's the same firearm but with a much shorter barrel, and with a shorter stock, and it's a smaller weapon. So the same way some people might want to drive a sports car because they like the feel of the compactness and the sort of speed, they take essentially a combat weapon or a combat-style weapon and they shrink it all down into sort of a miniature version."

The AR-15 was designed for the U.S. military in the 1950s. It was invented by Eugene Stoner, who worked for a company called Armalite, which is where the AR originated. The number 556 refers to the caliber -- 5.56 millimeters.

"So the shorter barrel and shorter stock make a smaller weapon that would make it more easy to carry around," Lytton said. "It would certainly make it more concealable. You can stick the thing under a jacket in a way that would be hard to sort of stick an AR 15 platform rifle under your jacket."

The 21-year-old suspect in Monday's massacre at a Boulder, Colorado, supermarket allegedly used a Ruger AR-556 pistol -- what one expert called "a semiautomatic made for combat" that is easy to carry and has "the firepower of a long gun."

For the Colorado shooting suspect, the Ruger AR-556 pistol had another benefit: It made purchasing the weapon quick and easy. A rifle of its same size would have been subject to multiple layers of added scrutiny, including a background check that would have required several forms of ID and even fingerprinting. The suspect would have had to pay additional taxes and potentially wait months before the gun was registered.

Boulder shooting suspect's gun looked like a rifle. But it's a pistol. Experts worry it's helping people skirt gun laws

The suspect in the Boulder, Colorado shooting bought a Ruger AR-556 pistol six days before the attack at a King Soopers. The gun looks like an AR-15 and uses the same ammunition. But it's legally defined as a pistol.

But but but but...its scary looking!

No.

An assault rifle, by definition, has select fire (both semi-auto and full-auto).

 

[ColonelAngus]

Have you guys noticed how libs and the media say “REPUBLICANS POUNCE!” when the right points out bad behavior by the left...like Cuomo or the riots.

HOWEVER...the left is all about gun control within minutes of any shooting?

Liberals...if you hate the constitution, go somewhere with a different one. Why change this one?

He could have used a crack barrel shotgun and killed 10 people in 30 minutes. He could have used a lever action, pump action and achieved the same result. The type of weapon is irrelevant.

Its just one more step to confiscation by the left. It wont end until 2A is gone. Then you will really see fascism.

Total confiscation is the objective. It's the only way they can control us.

A better question is why this family was allowed to immigrate to the US on the first place

what useful purpose did that serve?

Atlanta spa shootings spark new push for gun controls | US gun control | The Guardian

The alleged murderer, Robert Aaron Long, purchased a 9mm handgun on Tuesday morning, just hours before Tuesday’s deadly rampage through three Atlanta area spas. According to law enforcement sources, and the gun shop owner, the transaction breached no federal gun laws or procedures.

Because Obama who started bombing women and children in Syria needed to bring in a few refugees, because of all the aborted future Democrat voters.
