The Sandyhook shooter made sure he had a fresh magazine before he entered each classroom, so that he would not have to reload in the classroom.chasfm11 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 21, 2020 9:51 pm The report says that banning large capacity magazines DID have an impact on mass shootings. After I read that, I quit reading.
Pick one of the recent mass shootings. Columbine, for example, had many magazines. The size of them was inconsequential to the number of casualties. They had plenty of time to change them. The report said that Sandy Hook was not included in the FBI list. There, the shooter dropped magazines that were not empty apparently just for the joy of doing reloads. So it is hard to conclude that the magazine size had an affect on the number of deaths in that mass shooting, too. Virginia Tech, etc all had multiple magazines. In the Florida nightclub, the shooter was watching Youtube videos about how to clear a jam. Exactly how did magazine size make that one worse?
It also said that licensed concealed carry did not affect mass shootings.
Unfortunately for their report, they excluded mass shootings that did not happen, when they were stopped by Licensed Concealed Carry.
