We can argue all day regarding what weapons should be allowed or disallowed, but it makes no difference when it comes to mass killings. four folks killed in a school can be killed with the average hunting rifle, knife, hatchet, bow and arrow, or a simple 22cal rifle.
This subject is not about type of weapon used, but the fact that the parent was charged with the crime, along with his son.

Correct me if I’m wrong here. A military style weapon is not a military weapon. A military weapon is fully automatic. You can have the same firepower out of a non-military style weapon that is a semi automatic. I always wonder why we want to treat a weapon differently because it looks different.
