Nah, just nudging you with a stick, in passing, noting the degree of importance you put on how the degree of importance of your findings really should impact everyone else.

Please do. Then remind people that AR doesn't mean Assault Rifle. It's the manufacturer, Armalite.

Te Crime Prevention Research Center s a gun advocacy group run by Jojn Lott, a gun advocacy leader. Their credibility is no better than the NRA
I seem to recall some Obama speech about how we are the only country with these mass shooting, the same day as some European nation did.....
“The one thing we do know is that we have a pattern now of mass shootings in this country that has no parallel anywhere else in the world, and there’s some steps we could take, not to eliminate every one of these mass shootings, but to improve the odds that they don’t happen as frequently.”
— President Obama, interview that aired on CBS Evening News, Dec. 2, 2015
Critics pushed back on that comment immediately, noting that Paris — where Obama was speaking — had just experienced a mass shooting. Mass shootings do happen in other countries, and that statement clearly is false, worthy of Four Pinocchios.
Does the United States have more mass shootings than other countries? It depends on the data.
Exactly how mass shootings in the U.S. compare to those in other countries is a highly disputed subject. In a widely publicized study originally released in 2015, the pro-gun nonprofit Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) compared the annual number of mass shooting deaths per million people in the U.S. to that of Canada and several European countries from 2009 to 2015. The result? Norway led the world with 1.88 deaths per million, followed by Serbia, France, and Macedonia. Where did the U.S. rank? 11th place.
Average (Mean) Annual Death Rate per Million People from Mass Public Shootings (U.S., Canada, and Europe, 2009-2015):
In addition, a 2018 CRPC study ranked the U.S. at number sixty-four in the world in terms of mass shooting rates per capita.
- Norway — 1.888
- Serbia — 0.381
- France — 0.347
- Macedonia — 0.337
- Albania — 0.206

The 'culture' of killing due to America's continuous wars, as Michael Moore suggested, shouldn't just be laid aside and ignored.
That's not an attempt to place blame on either political persuasion but on Americans where it belongs.
But accepting responsibility comes with accepting guilt and the pain of the murdered children isn't being felt deeply enough yet.
At least your denial of a 'culture' of killing raises the question because of the need for denial.
How much impact has America's current war with Russia, as Americans begin to accept the fact and at least subconsciously understand the great risk?

There are known photos of Bonnie and Clyde when they weren't robbing banks or killing people. Does that prove they were innocent?

Past is prologue.
Democrats demanded riots, and their minions produced over 12 thousand of them leading up to what I proved was a stolen election.
The rioters on Jan6 were Democrats as well:

‘Leftist Antifa Among Mob Storming US Capitol’
– Facial recognition experts and backers of American President Donald J. Trump said members of the hardline leftist Antifa movement infiltrated protestors who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.
Several witnesses and reports monitored by Worthy News suggested radical leftist vandals broke into the building housing the U.S. Congress while most Trump supporters were loud but peaceful.” https://www.worthynews.com/55452-leftist-antifa-among-mob-storming-us-capitol
There is no disputing that the Democrats have had far more practice at riots than the Right.
Biden voters are well practiced.
. “No one can point to any statement from President Trump calling upon his supporters to storm the Capitol, much less to stage a coup against the U.S. government, but it doesn’t matter anymore. The establishment media and the social media giants are insisting that he incited the attack on the Capitol and was trying to install himself as a dictator by means of a guy with a buffalo horn hat and some other dopes and wingnuts, and if you don’t believe it, you’re a racist, bigoted, MAGA-hat-wearing fascist who deserves to be silenced along with the president, and soon will be. But it’s clear who the real fascists are, and they are exploiting their Reichstag Fire moment to the fullest.” The Left Is Enjoying Its Reichstag Fire Moment
“Video Reveals Trump Supporters Tried to Stop the Violence
Violence by Antifa on the south side where Trump supporters were told to March to. Supporters stopped the breakage but he started again later. MSM keeps saying it’s Trump http://supporters.it’s not.

“BLM instigator of Capitol riots, John Earle Sullivan, arrested
The Utah Black Lives Matter "activist" has been bragging about his involvement in instigating the Capitol riots. Now, he's been arrested.
The deadly riots at the Capitol last week that have sparked Big Tech cancelations and prompted another impeachment of President Trump were instigated in part by Black Lives Matter and Antifa “activists,” according to multiple media reports. One of the highest profile suspects, John Earle Sullivan from Utah, has been arrested.”
This story will be buried by mainstream media and suppressed by Big Tech. The arrest of John Earle Sullivan, a known Black Lives Matter leader and provocateur, belies the accepted narrative that Trump-supporters alone caused the riots.” BLM instigator of Capitol riots, John Earle Sullivan, arrested
“James, brother of accused leftist provocateur John Sullivan, claims 226 Antifa members started Capitol riots
John Sullivan was arrested yesterday in connection with instigating the Capitol riots on January 6th. A video of him and CNN photojournalist Jade Sacker emerged this week that shows them giddy following the murder of Trump-supporter Ashli Babbitt. Now, Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani is wondering why a text message from James Sullivan was not revealed during the President’s second impeachment hearings in Congress.
According to the text, James Sullivan makes a very bold claim: “I’m currently working with the FBI to expose and place total blame on John and the 226 members of antifa that instigated the Capitol ‘riot’ I was able to get my agent out of trouble along with three other uthan’s.”
…every day brings more evidence that Antifa and other left-wing “activists” incited the crowd to commit crimes. Videos of Antifa members secretly embedded with the Trump-supporters appear to reinforce these claims.
This all jibes with the credible conspiracy theory that Democrats or other interested parties planned this “false flag” attack in order to push for impeachment.” James, brother of accused leftist provocateur John Sullivan, claims 226 Antifa members started Capitol riots
“Verified twitter user Amuse breaks everything down in further detail in a series of tweets.
"To make this clear. CNN was embedded with BLM/Antifa pretending to be Trump supporters taping them incite a riot. This is freaking huge. If CNN is allowed to maintain its press access anywhere in DC there needs to be a serious overhaul of our entire system," he tweeted.
Here's another one, who showed up with furs, and also got himself arrested. According to the New York Post:
Aaron Mostofsky was busted Tuesday at his brother’s house in Brooklyn by federal agents on multiple charges, including theft of government property for allegedly stealing a police riot shield and bulletproof vest, the source said.
Mostofsky, who is the son of Shlomo Mostofsky, a Supreme Court judge and a prominent figure in the Orthodox Jewish community, was photographed with both items.
Video circulating on Twitter following Mostofsky’s arrest shows FBI agents swarming the home and carting out what appeared to be the fur pelts and walking stick he had on him during the insurrection.
His politics? According to this report, registered Democrat.”
Rush to judgment on Trump? Multiple leftists arrested for Capitol riot
And Zero Hedge.
America's continuous culture of wars since the end of WW2 has created the monsters that take out their military fantasies on little children that they consider safe targets.
The shooters nearly always come dressed in the military costume and carrying the gun that most closely imitates the military ideal.
Don't continue to run away from the identity of the problem.
The military's weapon would be the ideal for the killer, but it's not easily available and so the closest copy is chosen.
That tells everybody something that they must acknowledge.
Maybe then that fact can be explored as to the reason why the chosen weapon and the military lookalike costume.

"The 'culture' of killing...."
....by you Leftists is simply adherence to your godfather, Trotsky:
"We must rid ourselves once and for all of the Quaker-Papist babble about the sanctity of human life." Leon Trotsky
You, of course, exemplify same, having praised the world's most prodigious slaughter of human beings, Mao.
Is there any truth to the rumor of you having a memorial to Kermit Gosnell????
Have you considered changing your avi to "Basilisk"???

The fact, they are not full auto capable, does not seem to lessen their effectiveness as a weapon of choice, easily attained by the unstable masses, does it? I kind of doubt what people choose to call it, affects how it is often used.

The semi-automatic civilian AR-15 was introduced by Colt in 1963. The primary distinction between civilian semi-automatic rifles and military assault rifles is select fire. Military models were produced with firing modes, semi-automatic fire and either fully automatic fire mode or burst fire mode, in which the rifle fires several rounds in succession when the trigger is depressed. Most components are interchangeable between semi-auto and select fire rifles including magazines, sights, upper receiver, barrels and accessories.[60][61] The military M4 carbine typically uses a 14.5-inch (37 cm) barrel. Civilian rifles commonly have 16-inch (41 cm) or longer barrels to comply with the National Firearms Act.

We do not need gun control. We need crazy control. Salvador Ramos should have been off the streets when he slathered on the eyeliner and slashed up his face. Take him out even if he didn't have so much as a slingshot.
