    ISIS claims credit for everything. It's one of the traits they share with the President.

    And we'll wait to see about "illegal weapon." An AR-15 is super easy to mod to make automatic. And a shooter that is even slightly trained can achieve a rate of fire that is as fast as the "burst" setting on the military version, the M-4.

    Also, who knows about whether gun registration and licensing would have been effective or not. Registration, licensing, and safety laws have dramatically lowered the death rate for cars since 1960. I think we should try to do the same with guns.

    But really, I think the onus is on everyone who thinks that the current non-system of firearms regulation is good should tell the rest of us how we can stop having mass shootings all the fucking time.

    It's doable, the evidence is out there.

    que?

    what is the "they" and what is the "that," and what is "the point"?

    There is no definite subject or object in either of your sentences.

    The shooter was in possession of an illegal weapon and used it for illegal purposes.

    Not a single additional gun law would have done shit.

    Fuck you are stupid. Educate yourself.

    Wow even more baseless emotion void of coherent thought

    You could list a specific gun law that would have been in place on Friday that would have prevented this shooting

    Shooter was 64 year old white guy. As usual.i knew it wasn't Muslims because he actually hit his targets. Also, his name was "Steven Paddock." Not really Mooslumy. Maybe a recent convert, but more likely a pissed off old white and rich guy.

    It would be wrong to politicize this tragedy by discussing the relationship between easy access to firearms and mass shootings in the United States.

    Run over to the gun store and buy a machine gun. Let me know how that goes.

    I am just wondering what the motivator was at this point...recent muslim convert as old white guy? Racist? Anti NWO nut job? Antifa loser who wanted to kill rednecks at a country concert? Pissed off gay guy who hates Trump? Pissed off Trump supporter who hates gays? Or maybe just some mentally deranged lunatic who didn't have a cause but wanted to kill people?

    Country music is mostly conservatives. It'll be interesting to see what the motive is.

    I see you still don't know anything about firearms or the laws pertaining to them.
