    The first AR-15s have military roots. Now the firearm is associated with deadly mass shootings in the U.S.http://nyti.ms/1U3ZDhl

        regular civilians shouldn't have access to military grade rifles; let's not forget, this was an attack against the gay community

        Civilians needs to be able to access the same small arms as the military, or the government has no one to fear

        wow, you are out there. Maybe the FBI should look into you? In a democratic society there should be fear of that happening

        The American people should not overthrow their government. They should be able to defend themselves w/o relying on gov.

        I thought most gun violence was happening in cities like Chiraq? It definitely is. Crack down on inner city gangs.
