    What does that gunfire sound like to you?

    Rest easy. House will be debating (and probably passing) legislation to make silencers readily available. It's a national sickness. We are addicted to the idea of inflicting violent death on others.

    I don't even know how much people care about guns at this point as much as they care about digging in against liberals.

    The video lends itself to the assumption he had full auto. A pretty safe one at that.

    The richest society that ever was makes it possible for its citizens to slaughter each other in the most efficient way possible as a matter of policy. That's pathological.

    Because range trumps capacity here?

    Stocks of gun manufacturers are up in early trading today. I guess the thinking is there will be a push to ban assault-style rifles and there will be a rush to buy.

    Absolutely fully automatic. The rest of the civilized world looks at the United States and says, What the fuck?

    I grew up hunting and still own guns that I haven't shot in years, but there's no way anyone should own a fully automatic weapon. The .223 is 5.56mm military rounds, the caliber you shoot from your basic supermart AK. Better than 7.62mm, I guess.

    Maybe YF should publish a correction here.
    It will be good training for his reporter stint. :cool:

    Can't wait to see how many fake internet points the board's alleged new father/full time coffee repair man can manage to rack up on here on a work day by being the lone wolf defender. I've got the over-under on 125 posts.

    Yes, but they've been doing this every fucking day for months, if not for years.
