[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For god's sake, don't use soggy, wimpy liberal terms like "common sense gun laws."  It's a losing proposition, verging on parody.

A more effective term would be [b]"massacre reduction"[/b] [b]measures.[/b]  It's not saying we won't have massacres, we will (thanks NRA!) but maybe we could take steps that result in, check it out(!) a) [i] fewer[/i] massacres with b) fewer victims.

and re: Bump Stocks, which help to turn semi-automatics into automatics, that's what the Las Vegas mass shooter used.

Thanks to a bump stock, he was able to fire more than 1,000 bullets, killing 60 people and wounding 413 -- many with an eye shot out, or a disfiguring face wound, or decreased mobility due to destroyed joints and bones, etc.

Pro-tip: if you want to kill a lot of people quickly, get a bump stock!  [/quote]

Actually we still have [i]no idea[/i] what kind of gun(s) Steven Padock used in Las Vegas. Nearly all details of the investigation, including specific details and photos of the gun(s) are still sealed, six years later.

Audio analysis of the rate of fire of the guns shows it to be very consistent and identical to machine gun fire, not a bumpstock, which tend to have rates of fire which are inconsistent and vary from shot to shot. If Padock used a machine gun, I think that’s a detail that should be made known. [/quote]
