I liked the chick. Didn't notice a gun.

I think some gun enthusiasts may have over-corrected just a bit.  It's one thing to regard guns as a necessary evil, but they have gone on to regard them as a good thing, and more powerful guns as an even better thing.  It's as if they have forgotten that guns are designed to take lives efficiently.

Collectors always have their weird off shoots. It's just that it's a lot harder to kill someone with counters.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

From the 32nd floor he might even be able to kill someone that way.

Dropping shrink-wrapped copies of Second Front just from the 2nd floor would probably kill someone if it hit them in the head.  I think the thing weighed about 50 pounds (ok, that's an exaggeration, but it was heavy).

Monoriu

I am done feeling sad and angry about this sort of thing.  Wake me up when you guys are ready to adopt sane gun laws.  Until then, this kind of thing will occur again and again.

You are a bad person.  What a senseless waste of counters.  Cunt.

QuoteNRA Says Mass Shootings Just The Unfortunate Price Of Protecting People's Freedom To Commit Mass Shootings

FAIRFAX, VA—In the aftermath of a shooting in Las Vegas that left at least 58 people dead and more than 500 wounded, National Rifle Association officials said Monday that mass shootings are just the unfortunate price of protecting people's freedom to commit mass shootings. "What happened in Las Vegas is a horrific tragedy, but it's sadly the inevitable cost of safeguarding the rights of Americans to perpetrate such horrific tragedies," said NRA executive vice president Wayne LaPierre, adding that defending the constitutional right to commit mass murder meant accepting that mass murders were occasionally going to happen. "As saddened as we are today, we must always remember that preserving our sacred liberty to go on violent rampages is far more important than any one violent rampage." LaPierre went on to say that legislation like recent state laws permitting guns on college campuses and an upcoming House bill that would relax restrictions on the purchase of gun silencers were vital to ensuring people had more freedom to commit much deadlier massacres, even if they sometimes lead to much deadlier massacres.

Watch and learn languish. Bump fire.

What is the point of that?

Absolutely nothing that is needed in civilian hands. The ATF should have said fuck no

lulz, like they have any pull anymore.  Congress, the gun lobby and the Fox-Industrial Complex have spent the last 30 years denuding that agency to the point it's afraid of its own shadow.

I have watched none of it. Not really interested.

Of course you haven't.  Now, if his name were Ay-Sheet mah-Drawarz, we'd be chatting into the night about who we'd bomb in retaliation in the fight against Radical Islamic TerrorismTM

But the usual crazy white guy?  Boor-ring.

More or less waiting on facts and not media hysteria.  But yes, crackers be crackin'

Good news is silencers may be legal.
