When they show him on television, they need to caption him as the most vile leftist, financial cheating, corrupt democrat in congress. Many don’t know his history.

Wow. I wonder if any of these people have ever even held a weapon.

I'll donate $50,000 to the charity of @AlanGrayson’s choice if he can fire an AR-15 700 times in one minute. https://twitter.com/doc_68w_/status/742153896831881216

5:48 PM - 12 Jun 2016

Although it’s unknown where Grayson pulled out the magic 700 rounds per minute number, he is likely referring to the capability of a fully automatic rifle, which we already explained, an AR-15 is not. An AR-15 is semi-automatic, just like the Glock that Grayson referenced ironically. As such, it requires one pull of the trigger for every shot fired. Automatic weapons, such as what it seems Grayson is confusing the AR with, are heavily restricted at the federal level.

To be fair, you can find several videos on YouTube which show gun owners using a “slide fire stock” or “bump fire stock” on AR-15 rifles. This appears to increase the fire rate dramatically, but 700 per minute is still farfetched since the ATF found the add-on doesn’t turn a semi-automatic rifle into a machine-gun. If it did, the devices would be illegal. Regardless, there is no evidence presently that the Orlando shooter used any such modification during his Islamic terror attack.

As we see with any shooting, gun-gabbing legislators will make any attempt to demonize the weapon used. It will be worse this time since the killer’s motivation was fundamental Islam and the leftists have an aversion to pointing out any facts regarding Islamic terror. Instead, they will use words like “assault weapon” and throw around these frightening numbers — both of which are incorrect.

An AR-15 is a civilian weapon, meaning it is semi-automatic. It is not a “military style” or “assault” rifle. This may sound repetitive, but these facts are important. The liberal leftists want those who are uninformed to believe that everyday civilians are able to run around with military weapons when that’s simply not the case at all.

It is their goal to demonize something for a political agenda and misconstrue the guns and the public on the Second Amendment. Therefore, it must be our goal to correct it, to educate, and to spread the truth. Their lies can’t go unchallenged or unchecked. Unfortunately, Grayson’s little clip has already been seen and believed by too many who don’t know a thing about guns. Now, it’s time to make sure it’s heard with the correct information.

Wow, it must have a 700-round magazine. And a shooter with a hummingbird’s wing for a trigger finger.

Grayson is such a douche!

A pump shotgun with an eight round magazine can effectively fire 72 “00” English pea size pellets in less than 5 seconds.
Using Grayson’s tortured logic, that’s equivalent to
576 rounds per minute.

Also lets not forget the shooter had a security guard license that allowed him to get lots of weapons of different types

A lot more people would be dead if that was true.

Grayson is a notorious liar and freak.

I shot a whole herd of buffalo once with an AR and when I was done with that I took out a whole caribou herd at a distance of over a mile!

Mr. Grayson, a Democrat, was asked about the massacre and soon turned his attention to the AR-15 rifle.

Very quickly, I'm sure. Anything to avoid the the real problem -- Muslims.
