Shit like this will always happen.

Sure, just a moment

How many mass shooting have to happen so you will turn on your brain?

Actually he used illegal guns. Guns modified illegally are still illegal

Machine gun for self defense. You are funny...

A turn of conscience will not be something which will hinders one's motives.

It's already next to impossible to get machine guns

He got 17...

Your point being?

My point is. We need to work on a law that prevent this from happening. That's it.

Prevents mass shootings?

Prevents crazy idiots buying m16 for "self defense"

"Paddock had purchased several firearms, many in California, however they didn’t appear to be among those found in the hotel room."
"Meanwhile the owner of a Utah gun store said Paddock visited the store several times this year and bought a shotgun after passing a federal gun background check.
Dixie GunWorx owner Chris Michel said Paddock was new to the area and visiting local gun shops.
Paddock bought the shotgun in February and last visited the store in St George, Utah, in the spring.
Mr Michael said he spoke with Paddock to make sure there were no signs that he should not be allowed to buy a gun.
“There were no red flags,” he said. “I had no idea he would be capable of this.”"

There are many other conventional weapons to choose from, for the decimation of throngs of people.

@alexgreen what law would prevent this man from acquiring illegal guns

Define an "illegal gun".

@Bar of Candy so the guns he did the shooting with were illegal

"Another gun shop owner Christopher Sullivan told the New York Times Paddock had purchased a handgun and two rifles from his shop in the past year.
Mr Sullivan, the general manager of Guns & Guitars in Mesquite, said the purchases met legal and routine federal screening requirements.
"

@Wheelz a gun that he did not acquire legally

I'm not a governor. That not my job . @Scary_Clown

right wingers....

I know that.

But I am making a point.

@Scary_Clown

@Bar of Candy iffy source tbh

you looked for a while

couldn't get anything better?

No, guys, that's unacceptable.

Diff source with more stuff on the semi-autos

If crazy idiots cannot buy their guns, such temptations of mass calamity will be executed by other means.

Exhibit A: Nice, France

Nothing you can really do.

so, it wont be as easy with guns, think about if he tried that with a knife how far would he have goten??@Wheelz

Still looking man, takes time to do research, especially when most of his guns aren't conclusively one way or the other

83 deaths by vehicle

@Blood He could've done the same with a car.

government is still doing their thing

: )

ok but cars are not designed to kill

So what?

They can be used to kill, their uses are purely subjective.

"Authorities are still investigating how the shooter came into possession of the firearms."

Adhere to conventional law, or carry out what you see as a fit utilization of your given object.

also he would not have enough space to gain the momentum required to kill as many people, roads were blocked for the event

Source?

Not that it is of any relevance to my notion.

@Blood a man with a knife recently killed 29 people in china

mass killings are definitly possible with no guns at all

My point percisely.

but they are alot more difficult without guns

no.

https://archive.is/y3rQA , While he may or may not have gotten most of his guns legally, I cede the point that he snuck the guns into his hotel room illegally, since he was not allowed firearms in the hotel he was shooting from

SOMEONE PREDICTED IT

look at all the mass shootings in the u.s history, for instance in my city there was guy who went on top a tower with a sniper and picked off people, how would he do that with a knife?

how woudl a guy with a gun stab everyone?

dumb question

A pellet gun, or a nail gun

The perpetrators will use what is seen as fit.

@Scary_Clown lol no coz its easier to kill with a gun then knife a top a tower , moron

If he was really creative, a bag of throwing knives and some sharp aim

the biggest massacres in US history are hundreds of years old btw

Guns are not the only weapons of mass destruction as I said.

unless you country terrorist attacks

count*

And a truck / car could work just as well, if not better

imagine if a truck had plowed into that crowd

oh god

a big 18 wheeler

@Blood have a look at Aus for example... Yes we have little to no gun crimes BUT we have a huge violent crime problem still ('one punch kills' & stabbings)

full speed

you'd see a lot more than 500 dead

the death toll would've hit the hundreds

or wounded*

Yes, but It is hard for this to become apparent to our friend here, for he is convinced of guns as being the cause of mass annihilation.

it'd be a massacre

The issues isn't guns, the issue is mentally ill people

@Wheelz great so why havnt all the people that have done mass shooting in theu.s(alot of them) used a car instead?

@J U S T

Because, they have guns. @Blood

@Wheelz BINGO

If restricted, they will choose the most useful weapon of demise.

Focus on treating the mentally ill, and you'll see a HUGE decrease in crime overall (not just violent crime)

Banning weapons really solves nothing.

@J U S T i agree

Of course, how do you propose to help mentally ill people if they are adults and decide not to take their medicine?

@J U S T that's racist

Instituionalize all of the ones who make their own poor decisions?

Constantly monitor them and destroy what little right to privacy they had?

Some people are vacuous morons.

I'd rather infringe the rights of the mentally ill than the rights of everyone

@Wheelz ?

But where do we draw the line on what constitutes mentally ill?

? @Blood

were you talking about me

Not at all.

😃

There are some killers who are just barely autistic enough to fixate then kill. Some people are just paranoid

I made a statement.
