Any excuse to ban guns.

The events are just excuses to advance the leftist agenda.

This presents a minor difficulty for those who want to ban magazines over 10 rounds.

No it doesn’t, they are going to lie anyway, that is all they know

No. Not really. Logic has never stopped these people.

I have a one shot pellet gun that is fun for plinking. I hope I will be able to keep my weapon.

I know, I know....I’ll shoot my eye out.

(I actually knew a kid who shot himself in the eye with a BB gun.)

So why just post from the Miami Herald and where ever else you scammed the material from?

Now they will make an argument against, “smaller, more easily concealed magazines.”

Who is this Cruz guy? I thought an angry mob of NRA members shot up this school. That's what the DNC's toadies in the commie lib "mainstream media" are reporting.

> 10 round magazines

The ban on square magazines must be working since he was only able to get his hands on the round ones. Proof that bans work. I wonder if CNN has covered this yet? Someone should let them know - it sounds too good to be true (bans work) so they’ll run with it before checking. /sarc

When a gunman is in a “gun free zone”....he has all the time in the world to change magazines....

Our idiot governor is poised to penalize law-abiding citizens for a complete collapse of the systems that were supposed to protect us.

Frightened politicians do stupid/illegal things.

Smells of an ‘on purpose by the Marxists shoot em up’ for the sole purpose of confiscation.
I do believe Sandy Hook also was. Lord knows what really went on in Vegas

The “weapon and bullets were not high quality and were breaking apart,” one of the legislators, state Sen. Lauren Book, D-Plantation, told the Herald.

Geez. Breaking apart? Who made the gun and those "bullets"?

The 1966 Mass Murder at the Bell Tower in University of Texas at Austin by Charles Whitman, was done with a Remington 700 ADL using 6mm rounds. The rifle was a single shot bolt action with a 3 round fixed capacity magazine.
Whitman managed to kill 14 and wound another 31.
The only reason there weren’t more dead and wounded was that other students from the university went to their dorms and brought back their own guns. Students provided suppressing fire from the ground with small weapons and hunting rifles and kept Whitman from poking his head up for more shots. This allowed the police to enter the tower from a basement tunnel and sneak up on him where they were able to shoot and kill him.

“The “weapon and bullets were not high quality and were breaking apart,” ........
Cruz went in with only 10-round magazines because larger clips would not fit in his duffel bag, Book said.”

Things must have been pretty tight in that duffel bag. My guess is it was full of a large ANTIFA flag, a pile of iPhones and gluten-free cookies.

Also, “breaking apart”. This should drive home the need for quality guns and ammo. I know .380 has a tendency to “break apart” but what is the ammo doing ?

Obviously we need to go to 4 1/2 round magazines.

They don’t care about the truth. Private ownership of guns is in the way of their totalitarian socialist utopia.

10 round magazines? You mean he didn’t use those scary “rapid fire magazines” that DWS was talking about? And Debbie was always the one that I looked to for my AR-15 education. I am so disillusioned. /s

***Any excuse to ban guns. ***

How true. In 1968, Bobby Kennedy was murdered by a Palestinian immigrant using an American made hand gun. The news media immediately began screaming for a ban on small foreign made handguns and 5 shot bolt action army surplus rifles.
When the smoke cleared and the 1968 GCL passed, the news media was so thrilled, they failed to notice that the same handgun was still being made in the USA!

But Who cares! THE GOT A GUN LAW PASSED!

It was found that their hatred for the 5 shot bolt action rifle was not because John Kennedy was killed with one, they wanted army surplus rifles stopped years before that, but a desire of Emanuel Cellar to protect Remington, Winchester and Savage from cheap imports.
