“So, is there something about the shotgun used in Santa Fe, TX that is unusual. If not, why were they not more specific about it.”


Revealing that this crime was committed with a benign-looking weapon hurts their whole “we aren’t after your grandpappy’s shotgun, we just want to ban military-style weapons.”

Of course we know they want to ban all guns, but the current focus is on ARs and similar weapons. The fact that someone was able to commit a mass shooting with more basic weapons is a very bad thing for their current approach.

That makes sense.

But in Texas the gun grabbers will never gain control. Will be a war first.

I did notice some early news reports mentioned an AR type rifle for the Santa Fe shooting. I guess that reflects the average news reporter’s limits when describing weapons. (All are AR-15’s or AK-47’s)
