You don't find it suspicious that all of these seemingly "random" homicides, massacres, and assassinations which have been occurring with increasing frequency since Obama was first elected to office all have one single common denominator? That they ALL have been accomplished with the use of a firearm?

Whatever happened to all the different methods of mayhem that used to be in the news--knives, bombs, strangulation, poisoning the food chain, automobiles, hijackings, fires, arson, trucks, busses, aircraft sabotage, etc etc???

Over the past ten years, just about every so-called "random" lone wolf attack in the U.S. targeting innocent women and children has been accomplished with the use of a firearm, and in the process, has stoked the fires of anti-Second Amendment sentiment into a veritable inferno.

Nah. Nothing suspicious about that, is there?

Not really. If you want to kill a bunch of people, an AR-15 is going to be about the easiest method.

All the other methods of mayhem you described (except for mass strangulations) controls have been introduced to mitigate these. We haven't had mass bombings since Oklahoma City. We haven't had mass poisonings since Tylenol, and we haven't had hijackings since 9/11. Stabbings and driving trucks into crowds are acts you'll find in places that have gun control. No since bothering with that here since AR-15s are cheap, plentiful, and far more effective.

Ask yourself this; if you wanted to go on a killing spree, what would you use? I'd use a semi-auto rifle with 30 round magazines.

There have been mass murders using tools other than firearms.
I don’t believe these are orchestrated.
In a nation this big, with the news media manipulating stories, no surprise there’s mass murders using firearms dominated by the “in common use” AR15.
Just be ready with the story/bill, and time to release will come soon.
