This seems to be a very popular weapon among mass shooters. High capacity magazines that can be taped back to back for easy reloading. .223 bullets that are lightweight and have high velocity do massive damage.

Not a sporting rifle by any means. No, not an assault rifle due to tiny tweaks made by manufacturers. Can be converted to full automatic by some minor reworking but not necessary.

Full background checks plus several day waiting period should be required. Possibly, this terrorist event would not have happened if the background check had turned up the domestic abuses and the FBI interviews before allowing the terrorist to take posession.

Doubtful.

I guess a lot of folks fail to remember that guy in D.C. that went on a shooting rampage in the Navy Yard, using a SHOTGUN. If someone wants to kill, they will kill. Rather they use a gun than a pressure cooker bomb.

The issue is not the type of rifle, pistol or shotgun or knife or bomb.

It is the USA pemissiveness, don't hurt anybody's feelings lack of due enforcement.

And while it is convenient, the categorizing of weapons based on the most recent event is political media anti gunner BS.

Anyone with half a brain in positions of authority have by now enough information to profile and categorize the persons and the weapons. They have had the information for years. Yet what has been done to change the lack of enforcement?

Nothing.

We have become an anti enforcement, with a blind tolerance for the obvious violators.

And oh by the way....all the political and media and anti gunner BS has no effect on those intent on doing harm.

The other 99% of us who obey the rules and act responsibly DO NOT need any more laws than are on the books.

And the case study of all case studies that proves day after day that more gun rules do not fix anything. The csae study? Chicago, ILL....strictes gun controls in the country. Highest gun murder rate in the country.

So what is the point again?

POLITICAL, MEDIA, ANTI GUNNER BS!

The point that EVERYONE fails to see is that 90% of gun crimes are committed by minorities. Ban THEM from having weapons. The crime and death rate will drop by 90%. Why does nobody ever mention the REAL violence problem?

I have no issue with banning AR-15 rifles.

But what would be the discussion if the killer used an explosive vest? Or poison gas? Or drove his car into the club? Or set fire to the place? Or used a pressure cooker bomb?

Could we then freaking figure out that we need to control 18-30 year old radical Muslims!!!!

Sounds like a libtard, acting like restricting a radical group is such a big deal. It has been done before. You want to ban a stupid gun that isn't even a military weapon. Just another of a multitude of guns that a RADICAL used to kill. So, if up to you, we would punish the gun instead of the killer, IF that was possible. You are so afraid of Muslims that you fear their anger if you say anything against them.

Libtards are so stupid that they think that by getting rid of one gun, it's going to stop the killing. They forget about bombs and they forget about Paris recently. You know, the place where they have strict gun control?

Try to get it through your heads, liberals. AR-15 is not a military weapon and it is NOT an assault weapon. The M-16 is the military assault weapon. The AR-15 just looks like one. It does not operate like one.

My son-in-law has a Glock 9mm semi-automatic pistol. He has a 30 round magazine. It is not an assault weapon, but it has the same ability as the AR-15 to kill 30 people before reloading. I have a S&W 9mm pistol with a 16 round magazine. Many shotguns are semi-automatic and they even sell some that look like military weapons. Are you going to ban all semi-automatic weapons? Does that mean that my six shot 357 magnum is ok? Because with speed loaders, I can reload faster than some folks with semi-automatic pistols.

Please, will one libtard speak up and explain exactly how far you will go to limit the 2nd Amendment. And by the way, technically by the 2nd Amend. we should be able to have any weapon that the military has. After all, it is there to protect us from an over reaching government.

Is that right? How about a tank? Do you want one of those too?

And it's reasonable for someone, a Muslim in this case to be on a FBI watch list and not restrict selling any weapon he wants to purchase because that might be the slippery slope of total gun control. Is that right?

Cry me a river. Name me just one gun that went out and killed someone. If you liberals would just push law enforcement and strict penalties, you wouldn't have to fear the big mean guns. Tell you what, if you agree to voter ID, I'll agree to banning the infamous AR-15. Deal?

From what I have discerned, this nutcase was on the no-fly list and then taken off again. I don't know how that works or how you get off the list, but if so then not selling to someone on the no-fly list would not have applied in this case.

Guest

Liberals just don't get it. Guns or not having guns available do not have any bearing on these mass killings. Guns do not account for a person's mental mindset and evil intent. Are we going to ban the sale of dangerous, assault pressure cookers? Are we going to ban knives, axes and arrows? If someone wishes to kill a group of people, they will and all you are going to do is create another Paris attack here, if you start a war on guns and not on the real enemy.

That was loaded with opinion and other than having large mag capacity the AR15 is just another semi-auto rifle like many others.
It looks menacing, but it is not more so than others.
Let's not get hung up on one particular means to commit acts of terror. Let's face the fact that some radical extremists want to harm Americans.

It wasn't that the shooters AR15 TYPE rifle was so efficient.
A good reason 50 people got killed is the fact that not one of them was armed
and all they could do was
hide and cower or play dead,
for almost three hours!
If one in the club was armed and placed a head
shot with a lowly .380 ACP it might have saved many lives.

I got rear ended on my motorcycle by an illegal

they found he had no permanent address,
and was already being sought for another offense!

Anyone who says illegals are not a problem, is full of it,

On the way back from golf I listened to a radio show. Deputy Chief James Puscian was interviewed. He was the Officer in charge during the Aurora massacre. Most of the conversation was about how to treat first responders and victims but the conversation also talked about fire power. I didn't know if I could find it but I'm listening to it now. I missed most of it this morning.
Intersection: The First Responders & Calls For Gun Legislation - Intersection - Local News - Pulse Shooting - 90.7 WMFE (http://www.wmfe.org/intersection-the-first-responders-calls-for-gun-legislation/60957)

While looking for that link I was listening to this story.

I'll finish it a little later.

Intersection: The First Responders & Calls For Gun Legislation - Intersection - Local News - Pulse Shooting - 90.7 WMFE (http://www.wmfe.org/intersection-the-first-responders-calls-for-gun-legislation/60957)

While looking for that link I was listening to this story.
The History and Use of Assault Weapons | WOSU Radio (http://radio.wosu.org/post/history-and-use-assault-weapons)

I'll finish it a little later.

Thanks for your help.

Just wondering why you need help?:confused:

This is pretty informative. PHILLIP CARTER, Former Defense Department Official explains the AR 15's design.

Does anyone really think that PBS is really an unbiased
source for information.
And it seems that the rifle used in the Orlando
terrorist attack is now identified
as not being a Colt AR15.

No, not everyone knows that, and most don't even know the difference
between a semi-automatic and fully auto-magic
and that includes supposed news reporters!

That idiot Grayson had to make a public statement saying that the weapon the perpetrator had could put out 700 rounds a minute. What a fool! And liberals are too stupid to know any better.

If one were honest and open they would recognize that the progressive policies of guilt, permissiveness and attempts to make life risk free have transformed this nation into a wimpy nanny state incapable of dealing with any of its problems. The Civil Rights Act went too far, feminism is responsible for the development of girlie boys, anti-war sentiment makes it impossible to properly defend this nation, illegals run wild, Orlando killers can't be deported or arrested for fear of being called bias, abnormal behavior is celebrated, we have become a great debtor nation, our middle class is about wiped out............................................... .............................................and of course gun control will solve all of our problems

Yes, I can tell how valid and accurate they are when Grayson tells the news reporter that the gun that idiot had could fire 700 rounds a minute. My advice to you is to take every news comment with a grain of salt, or a pinch of it.

VERY good advice...believe nothing on TV. It's most likely propaganda.

And I have yet to see one liberal reporter that knew the difference between an automatic assault weapon and a semiautomatic weapon. But, how would any liberal know? Liberals are not required to be knowledgeable on a subject to expound on it.

MANY are not required to be knowledgeable to talk about a subject.

TRUTH
My sister is or was a bleeding heart LIBERAL. TILL her daughter was rear ended by an ILLEGAL ALIEN driving a car with NO INSURANCE on a learners permit with no licensed driver in the car. My nieces car rolled over onto her left arm. Her left arm FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE, is now a useless mess.
tHE illegals father has bought his unlicensed daughter a new car. Due to no insurance they did not pay any of my nieces medical bills.
My sister, THE LIBERAL you should hear her current views on illegals.
LIBERALISM IS ANOTHER NAME FOR INSANITY

MOST people change their tune about "minorities" after experience with them.

It wasn't that the shooters AR15 TYPE rifle was so efficient.
A good reason 50 people got killed is the fact that not one of them was armed
and all they could do was
hide and cower or play dead,
for almost three hours!
If one in the club was armed and placed a head
shot with a lowly .380 ACP it might have saved many lives.

Bars are gun free zones. It would be illegal to carry there. You'd have to go to a seedy, inner city, minority majority, club to find people with guns.

Those are the places you hear about shootouts...no better.

I got rear ended on my motorcycle by an illegal
who ran from the accident, and when the police tried to locate him,
they found he had no permanent address,
and was already being sought for another offense!
I got stuck paying my deductible, but I was very glad I wasn't hurt bad.
Anyone who says illegals are not a problem, is full of it,
and should visit a prison to see how many we are supporting there.

ALL the minorities are a problem...just in different ways.

I'm understanding more as I go along. Before I retired I had to do research for my job. I finally have the time for myself. It's interesting.

Ha! You just wait! The rabbit hole is DEEP! You'll learn things that will sicken you! Good luck!

When they make fully auto-magic guns no one will be safe. [maybe Harry Potter]

They do make them.

This is an example of people with no knowledge opining.

That idiot Grayson had to make a public statement saying that the weapon the perpetrator had could put out 700 rounds a minute. What a fool! And liberals are too stupid to know any better.

MANY are too stupid to know better. This is why you DON'T listen to the "news", it's mostly propaganda.

We've become quite the country. Taken over by women, gays, and minorities.

Yes, we have gun free zones. Perfect targets. Schools, Bars, Theaters and Gov buildings. All easy targets for scumbags that are too cowardly to fight on equal terms. You are safe where concealed carry is allowed. But, when liberals ban concealed carry, all places will be gun free zones and open for assault and mass murder. I just wish that liberals would be required to wear bulls eye targets in public.
