OMG!!!! An evil AR-15 with those ultra high power super max green tip exploding bullets and a shoulder goes up thing and maybe a pistol grip and grenade launcher. Forty five pistol, not so much. That this former US attorney is allowed to speak, now that's scary.

Who wouldn’t want a tricked out AR-15?

If he had had one, he might have shot everyone in the room except for one!

The fools believe that the people would have been deader if he had used an AR-15?

Then take a page from Alinsky and don’t reveal your politics openly at first.

They're just pissed that Roof didn't use an assault weapon with high-cap magazines so now they're trying to spin it that, "He could have!"

Turns out AR’s are neither easily available nor affordable. Else the proto Democrat would have had one......

I don’t see any more need than to say this perp is guilty. The fact that so many people have to think beyond who the perp is gives a note as to how screwed up society is.

My local Wal-Mart has them starting at around $600. Where do you live?

According to this source,

http://www.ibtimes.com/dylann-roof-motive-he-almost-didnt-go-through-it-because-everyone-was-so-nice-him-1975011

Roof reloaded five times. Reloading is common in these types of shootings. Restricting the size of a magazine would have done little to prevent this. And an obvious work around to a magazine limitation is just bring another gun.

I also find it interesting that he owned the devilish AR-15, and chose not to use it. Probably because a pistol is easier to conceal. I guarantee that, if the AR-15 is banned, in around 45 minutes the left will call a press conference and point out that other guns are just as deadly as the AR-15...and the agenda will march on.

This one is dripping with bias, and it isn't even an editorial - nothing new from CNN, I suppose, but it still irritates.

Roof also had a forearm for an AR-15 in his trunk. It allows a shooter to more easily keep a grip on the rifle, as the barrel grows fiery hot from the shots pouring out of it.

Uh, what? I think he means a fore-end, and you probably wouldn't want to shoot any rifle holding the bare barrel in your hand. "Fiery hot from the shots pouring out of it"? Blood-curdling enough? Good grief.

Police say Roof used .45 caliber handgun to carry out the church attack, stopping several times to reload... An AR-15 fires more rounds per magazine and is more accurate at a longer range.

That's because it's a RIFLE, you idiot!

Roof had wanted to kick off a race war. That appears to have backfired.

No bias there, either. But better reconsider, my friend - it's kicked off a war all right, one that was ready for a the right excuse for a very long time. Our little murderer Dylann is only the guy who lit off the Reichstag fire.

Uh, they believe they’re deader because of hate which make murder even more evil. Could they lower the charge to “murder with a strong dislike” count?

PMAG came out with 40 round AR mags in the past few years and that is what I have exclusively been buying.
