I was reading the Dallas Morning News this morning and they put an article from the Washington Post in which the author wrote that the killer had 3 weapons. A Glock, a Sig, and a Bushmaster AR 15. What I found interesting though is the person that wrote the article stated that both the Glock and the Sig could fire 5 rounds per second. Like they were some type or automatic weapon. They also stated a Sig cost $300 but that's nothing major just another example of how bad the media is at getting the facts straight.
This is how things get bent out of proportion. Someone that doesn't know better is going to read that and think "Hmmmm. We need to outlaw those Glocks and Sigs. No one needs a gun that can shoot that many rounds per second.".

Re: Mass Shooting in Connecticut-THREAD NAME CHANGE
I got in trouble for talking about Religion on here not too long ago. I won't say any more but it seems to me God didn't do much to take care of these little kids. Someone in that massacre is probably thanking God he spared there kids. The flip side to that is God didn't look out for the other ones. Hmmmm... Maybe things just happen and God doesn't have anything to do with it.ctsmith9962 wrote:I do not believe Jesus but I still have moral fiber.jayinsat wrote:Although the left will launch a full assault on gun rights and many of you have blamed movies, games etc, I believe all those reasons miss the mark. Nothing like this happened before God, and more specifically, the fear of The Lord was banned from society and our schools. Our kids are not allowed to pray, Jesus name can't be mentioned and God, we are told, is just a fairy tell. Even Christmas is forbidden. It's X-mas so we don't offend.
Without a moral fiber, humanity will rapidly devolve into its most base form. We are clearly seeing this. Our moral foundation was built upon the 10 commandments and we've shattered that. Why wouldn't we expect evil to reign?
Who's offended now?

Re: One child reportedly dead after gunman opened fire
Just saw this on CNN"s website.
"A few more details from the White House press briefing earlier. White House spokesman Jay Carney said while today is not the day to debate gun policy, an assault weapons ban "does remain a commitment" of President Obama."
If you want one you better get it soon.
