        This is no mere suggestion. Americans are the only nation with an entire political party that promotes the arms industry. Republicans are Eisenhower's nightmare.

        Must be why we have so few mass shootings. We're safe because of all the gunz. Thx, @nra

        Qualify sources and then I will check them. Libs manufacture disinterest in guns by calling war and prison injustice. Check the bible for sources, you might be surprised!!

        It's just the wild Wild West mentality. Fine. But idiots should not have automatic weapons.

        Very few people have automatic weapons. They’re practically illegal and only 3 have been used in crimes since the 1930s. They’re highly regulated and restricted. Practically illegal.

        Right, but how do morally decrepit people get them?

        They don’t. They’ve been used in 3 total crimes in the USA since 1930. You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about.

        Stop with the semantics on auto and semi auto weapons. All recent mass shootings have happened with semi auto weapons, at least one modified to mimic auto.

        Yes, the difference between 1000s of rounds and hundreds of rounds a minute is simply semantics. One might actually call it statistically significant.

        I’ll bet the more than 600 dead or injured in the last few months would say they find it statistically insignificant.

        Spare me the water works. You know as well as I, that it’s an important distinction.
