    Which is why you have to be particularly fucked up to be too kooky for that bunch.

    No, I jumped in without reading everything, too. ... I just read your post and took emergency services to mean police, fire, 911, etc. Sorry if I was wrong.

    Would much really change?

    Red states wouldn't change their gun laws. Criminals would still import guns from states with loose gun laws. Someone like this guy, who obviously planned this out, would likely still acquire the guns he wanted.

    And, unless you pair repeal of the Second Amendment with a ban on guns, and a plan to confiscate weapons, we'd still have tons of weapons out there.

    Also, I'm not sure how those services fit your definition anyway. Are there infinite police patrols available? Infinite phone lines? I don't see how use of them is non-exclusionary.

    Technically, you are right (so far) that he didn't have full auto. Realistically, they are correct that his rate of fire was equal to a full auto.

    I don't know. But we'd have 51 petri dishes, unshacked from the Second Amendment, free to figure that out.

    The gun control states would be freer to be much more draconian in their controls.

    "The reality is that the death count is far higher, as my colleague Eliza Barclay has noted. The situation is so bad in Puerto Rico that the government can't even issue death certificates to count the dead."--Vox

    Or, according to NPR this morning, power enough refrigeration to preserve the dead until their loved ones can locate and identify.
