So they ban handguns, semi-automatic weapons, etc. But they allow hunting rifles and shotguns. I then suppose a deranged killer, like Holmes, wouldn’t use those weapons do murder people? I guarantee you, if Holmes only had a very legal pump shotgun, he could have killed just as many or more people than he did kill. And since he knew about explosives, what would have stopped him from throwing a molotov cocktail or some other type of bomb into the audience? Nothing. Nothing except a law enforcement officer OR AN ARMED CITIZEN!!! can stop a deranged killer.
Actually from what I read Holmes used a shotgun initially and when it ran out he went to use the AR-15. When it jammed he switched to his handgun.
I could be wrong, but that’s what I read in one of the hundreds of MSM news stories. Not that you can expect them to get it right.
One lib online said that it would be wrong to shoot him in the act. That he deserved his day in court.
