Oh man I don't know ... I only know from watching vids of our boys on Afghanistan firebases that an M4 is rarely fired in auto due to the jam-rate ... in fact, you can't tell the difference if they're firing in auto or semi-auto simply by watching case ejections ... you can only tell by watching the trigger .... You can really wipe-out a deer with this weapon made for hunting ... but not assaults on a Kindergarten ... so no, I wouldn't know the difference between an M4 or AR-15 .. other than a grenade launcher ..
Then, really what is the big deal? We have a culture problem, not a gun problem. The gun grabbing is a way of NOT talking about the cultural rot in this nation.
You mean like the AFT keeps records of who buys long guns and handguns? Got that! What good would it have done?
Oh, Lanzas' mom must've taught 'em and showed 'em that his AR-15 had a rate-of-fire/cyclic-rate just about equal to an M4 ... and with 30-round mags ... where at no time did he apparently jam ... Can you imagine kids these days ... that this is the pinnacle of thier existence ? Executing women & children ? In a godless Lib culture no different than Bushs' Wars ?
Have you ever handled a firearm before? You have no idea what you're talking about. At all. You cannot buy a true assault rifle, with burst or full auto, unless you have a very special license from the ATF. The rifle used at Sandy Hook was semi-automatic.
how about a laser rifle that could keep a continuous beam and as the shooter turned in a circle cut through everyone in their way like butter obviously there needs to be limits, also there can be limits to what you carry in public, take the NBP for example, there is no reason to take that kinda guns out except to scare people this is one of those things, were a few idiots can ruin it for everyone when I was in school a teacher allowed us to chew gum, a few people did not dispose of it properly and we lost that right
I had a shotgun & ruger 22 one time ... but I sold them after Tucson ... when it became clear that right-wing Zombies were emboldened to kill Libs ... wise move as it turns-out ... given now we've upgraded to mentally-ill sons who will now kill thier own moms with her own weapons because they want to execute teachers & children that did them wrong 20 years before ... Yes who knows ... I'm sure with all the bragging you do about your assault-weapon prowess , especially your excitement after every massacre ... somebody knows about you ..
I suspect there a limit to Gun control that liberals would accept. I suggest that we start financially penalizing fathers who abandon their children, and women who decide to go at it alone. I say that having a strong father figure in the home is the BEST gun control provision. The statistics are really solid: Statistics (http://thefatherlessgeneration.wordpress.com/statistics/) 70% of youths in state-operated institutions come from fatherless homes 9 times the average. (U.S. Dept. of Justice, Sept. 198 85% of all youths in prison come from fatherless homes 20 times the average. (Fulton Co. Georgia, Texas Dept. of Correction) 63% of youth suicides are from fatherless homes (US Dept. Of Health/Census) 5 times the average. 85% of all children who show behavior disorders come from fatherless homes 20 times the average. (Center for Disease Control) 80% of rapists with anger problems come from fatherless homes 14 times the average. (Justice & Behavior, Vol 14, p. 403-26) 71% of all high school dropouts come from fatherless homes 9 times the average. (National Principals Association Report)
Can you guaranty that the police will always be there to protect and save you? There will never be another LA Riots, Katrina, Sandy?
The important point is that Loughner is still alive ... to write some kind of memoir ... maybe he'll address Palins Blood Libel who jumped-on Loughners spotlight to cash-in ... So rare to catch a mass-murderer alive these days.
I'm always willin' to talk about the cultural rot in this nation. You wanna put God back in the classroom or what?
