We need to reclaim the language here. Lanza used a personal defense weapon in a way not intended. It’s not the tool, but the user that is evil.

Reid is doing his best to hide a dirty little secret, and in situations like this it's hard to keep that secret under wraps:

At the state level and below, most Democrats in office outside the Northeast and California know full well that they'd lose their next election if they ever signed on to the gun-grabbing agenda of the national Democratic Party.

“Any fool knows that [Adam] Lanza couldn’t possibly have killed as many children as quickly as he did on the morning of Dec. 14 without an assault weapon in his hands.”

So claims an idiot. One pistol with 5 ten round magazines and a locked room with 20-30 children would mean (20-30) dead children in a matter of minutes. It takes a split second to drop one magazine and insert another. So who is the fool Mr Lupica?
