Title: How many people would Gifford's shooter have shot if automatic weapons
Post by: Odin's Hand on January 09, 2011, 08:10:52 AM
This DUmmy puts its ignorance of federal firearm laws on display for all to see in the OP. Enjoy the emotional outbursts.

weren't so easily available?

If he had only had access to a regular gun?

We shouldn't have let that federal law expire.

11. Yeah , one fires 100 bullets a minute and the other 50 bullets a minute
 The 2nd misamendment has brought endless heartbreak to this nation. More people killed by domestic gunfire than from war. if the medium is the message, the gun is the crime. Most violent crimes would be impossible to contemplate without guns. The gun worshippers will say that the bad guys will find other ways but the fact is that over and over again, guns are the first, second and third choices of bad guys. The don't bring a gun and a bomb or a sword, they bring a bunch of guns. Damn America's sick gun culture to hell!

Yes, he had posted photos of a Glock 19 to his Facebook.com profile.

I had heard a report that someone in the crowd had shot back at the gunman.

Ok, I fully understand.

What you're saying is you have a very small (or zero) penis and the gun just doesn't compensate as the salesman at the Bass Pro Shop stated it would.

Sigh...

However, if you chamber a round, point the gun under your chin, and pull the trigger, the firearm will faithfully perform its socially positive supporting function...check it out...

If you subtract the ghetto rats using firearms to perform public service on one another, the rate of firearms crime in the United States among the civilized population isn't much different from the European socialist hellholes the DUmp democrats want to emulate. When violent crime strikes decent people, as it did yesterday, it's tragic, but we should nonetheless recognize and give thanks that it is also exceedingly rare.

Didn't one of his postings state that he tried that last January and screwed it up.

I wouldn't be surprised.

A DUmmie would shit their pants as soon as I list what my husband carries:

A .357 sig, it holds 13+1 in the chamber and he ALSO carries one backup magazine.

There isn't a single DUmmy slithering around the DUmp who would know the difference between a .357 Magnum and a 9mm. They'd probably think the 9mm is more deadly because the "mm" sounds so European, and you know they're better.

Dear DUmmies,

Klebold and Harris didn't have automatic weapons and they killed 15 people.

Seung-Hui Cho didn't have automatic weapons and he killed 32 people.

Gang-bangers in this country (mostly) don't have automatic weapons and they're responsible for THOUSANDS of deaths every year.

Maybe if you pulled your head out of your asses you'd realize it's not the weapon, it's the one pulling the trigger.  Then again, Freud did say that a fear of weapons is a sign of retarded sexual and emotional maturity.

Automatic weapons are not easy to get. I'm sure that if Loughner applied for a class 3 tax stamp, he would have been denied. Even then, he might have slid through. He didn't use an automatic weapon, he used a semi-auto.

It doesn't matter if he used a a BB gun the libs would still be in, ban all guns mode over this.
All the libs care about is getting political points from this. You know, never let a crisis go to waste, as a certain presidential adviser once said, and no I don't mean KKKarl Rove.

Cars and trucks make dandy weapons, they have, in the wrong hands taken out more lives then a single hand gun. Thousands every year.  A few cars have taken out 20-30 people at a time by running into street fairs or parades.  Strange but Gay Parades have not yet had that problem.
 
A single oil lamp in the wrong hands burned down Chicago when Mrs. Murphy's cow kicked it over.

A dozen men, with just box cutters, 3 hijacked planes, 3000+ lives lost.

Guns are like fire.   Both are necessary for the protection and lives of the worlds people---in the right hands.  Put either in the wrong hands and devastation happens

Family's large and small have one or two members that are all ways in trouble for one thing or another. Not only do we have to protect ourselves from strangers but at times our own kin folk.

Fire arms have been around as a protection for people since they were invented.  There would not be a USA without the fire arm for hunting for food and protection.  The 6 gun revolver was a peace keeper and won the west.

I as an American demand my right to continue my American tradition and right by the COTUS.

I have great fear the anti-protection people will now demand stronger laws against personal protection.They may gloom onto this incident to cause us peace keeping folks unarmed.

So sad what happend but, when Lincoln was shot, Kennedy and his brother also there was no hue and cry until Brady and Regan were shot .

This incidence is going to stir up the sleeping Libs that wish to disarm us.

Gun banners are just stoooopid!
Lets ck history,
Prohibition, what happen?
OK lets look at now,
There has been a war on drugs for the last 30 or so years, what is happening?
Gee, murder is outlawed and he still did that!
What makes people think that banning things will make them go away? There is a black market for every illegal thing you can think of! I stand by the old saying "If guns are out lawed only outlaws will have guns" and of course we will all be outlaws!

There was some moron on Fox this morning that said if his gun hadn't been able to fire that many round he wouldn't have been able to shoot that many people.

I knew the dipshit had never heard of the word reload before.

Besides he shot 13 and killed 6 so he had to have reloaded at least once.

There is apparently some kind of quirk in the DUmpmonkey genome that prevents them from understanding the difference between semi-automatic and automatic.

And they steadfastly ignore the fact that this blue dog democrat, for whom the DUmp had a burning hatred until Saturday morning, was a Glock owner herself:

4. I'm not sure but....
the congresswoman said she owned one.

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/26/us/politics/26threat....

'Ms. Giffords, at least, said she would uphold Arizona’s tradition of self-protection.

“I have a Glock 9-millimeter, and I’m a pretty good shot,” she said.'

I wonder if the weapon was chosen specifically because of this quote.
