Standard NRA boiler plate. People are buying it less and less every day. Regardless, the cult rifle for these killings is the AR-15 and it's clones. You want to change that, change the cult of the thing. Until then, something has to be done.
No...you are a moron...... there are over 8 million AR-15s in private hands...... those weapons are used for lawful purposes...fewer than 5 have been used in mass shootings more people are killed by lawnmowers, you moron, than are killed by AR-15 rifles each year...
When I see people carrying into schools lawnmowers that can fire that many rounds a minute and are used to gun down school children, people in theaters, people at concerts and such then I will be the first to want to discuss changing how we do lawnmowers. It's one thing for accidental deaths and another for killing in cold blood in our schools. If you can't see the difference then you shouldn't even own a lawn mower much less a firearm.
The Virginia Tech shooter killed 32 with 2 pistols... the Luby's cafe shooter 24 with 2 pistols.... you don't know what you are talking about...
School shootings are rare...... more people are killed by lawn mowers than are killed in school mass shootings you doofus.....
2007. Virginia Tech was the start. He went from building to building. No one even noticed as he moved from each building and killed more people. There were no safe guards in place. Today, those safeguards prevent this from happening. Had he been isolated to only one building he might have killed 2 or 3 before he was stopped. It's a lot harder today. And you need a more target rich environment to get much over 7 these days. And then you need a lot of ammo and the means to fire a lot of ammo fast. The handgun just won't cut it. The Shotgun won't cut it.
1991. Luby's cafe was the worst in history until Virginia Tech. It was a very target rich environment. He killed 23 and wounded 27 using two handguns with extra mags. These people were seated and had no warning and were stunned when he crashed his truck through the front of the building. Had he an AR-15,the body count would have been well over 100. He was very good at what he was doing. Had his tools been better.......
You keep bringing up these two and yet, the VT wouldn't have changed a thing regardless of weapons. That the Luby's Cafe could have been a hell of a lot worse with an AR-15 since the conditions were saturated with targets.
I wonder, are you drooling when you bring these things up?
