the intentions of a possible shooter could be similar to the motives of an actual shooter, but at this time the definitions of the words “motive” and “intention” are being investigated and are being considered for redefinition.

Meanwhile, some fat elderly citizens wander through the Capitol building, and it’s so very “obvious” that they are trying to overthrow the government.

Actually, because of the recoil mechanism design, much more compact then an AR pistol which needs the buffer spring.
