        It's sick that this product surged in popularity after it was revealed the shooter had used it. What goes on in people's brains?

        If it makes you feel better, the surge isn't because the shooter used it, but because people now fear them being banned permanently.

        TBH I don't get it either. Semi-auto is plenty 'nuff for me. Plus it looks like it would f up sighting. Unnecessary.

        After a mass shooting, gun stocks RISE and people clamor for the items used to implement death. No, not a sign of a dysfunctional society

        The same happened many times while Obama held office. The gun market is based on fear. They might get banned = get 'em while you still can.

        I don't doubt it happened even more with Obama because the fear of legislation would be even greater. Still amazes me though.

        The joke was Obama works for gun lobby b/c ammo prices jumped so high. Don't worry, they're not planning shootings. It's odd but way it is

        They will be back soon. They also removed guns for a while after Columbine.

        I’d be inclined to remove from shopping preferences any store that sold something specifically designed to kill me.
