I don't know enough about guns, but how big are the magazines on these automatic guns? To kill 50+ and injure another couple hundred (plus) seems like a really big magazine. Like 250 rounds.
You can shoot THREE rounds for every trigger pull on an m-16......automatic....semiautomatic.......call it whatever you want. That's fucking dangerous and you can go thru a full clip in 3-4 seconds. Very unnecessary if you ask me.
Watching the video it sounded like he had an attachment on that weapon. Shit sounded like a gatling gun but wasn't of course
Sounds like we both have had first hand experience with someone having a psychotic break. I am of the opinion that no amount of education is going to change the outcome. With the situation at hand, what we do know is that this was not a break. This guy had been a resident of the casino from Sept 28th. He planned before hand to get a room that had a tactical advantage. He Planned to be able to maximize the carnage he could create. In May this year, ISIS sent out a call to its believers to do an attack of this kind in Los Vegas. The instructions and recommendations mirror what was done last night. It has been reported that this guy recently converted to Islam a few months ago. So, in short, was this guy crazy? In my opinion , yeah. What amount of education would have made any difference?
They don't need to be big magazines. Also, the guy supposedly had 10 guns with him. But if the guy practiced enough, he could have been able to do this.
I didn't bring politics into anything. I simply said congress holding a moment of silence isn't enough like they do for every mass shooting.
True it wasn't just a snap. It was planned, premeditated. Listening to this interview with his brother, he sounds like he really doesn't understand where this came from. I mean, there is either some motive we don't know about yet or he just had something wrong with him, I'm not sure. It's weird. He even had cameras set up for when the police came to know when to kill himself.
And you can't go out and buy that. The original M16 back in Vietnam was released with full auto, but they eventually took that away because the grunts would blow through their mags. They put in the 3 round burst and I believe the modern version of the m16 is 3 round burst or single shot only.
If I'm not mistaken most people who voted for Trump also support the NRA? I'm not much into politics, so If I am wrong, let me know. And I actually did get mad..... you said "PEOPLE LIKE YOU". People like me have actually lived thru shit like this. Been a part of it in a weird round about way. And what exactly does me joking when we are talking about out team have to do with this?
https://www.quora.com/What-are-the-legal-requirements-for-buying-a-M16-assault-rifle-in-California What are the legal requirements for buying a M16 assault rifle in California?
Yeah and no politics should be brought into this. You wonder why I have distanced myself from these stupid ass posts about trump or any politics? It's annoying hearing this shit every single day. I'm done with the political shit on here. Can't have a real discussion with certain individuals on it without being labeled a white supremacist or some shit. So yeah with that being said, I'm completely done with the politics side of this forum. It's gotten out of hand
You can't go into a store and buy that gun. It's probably an original M16 from Vietnam. The amount of paperwork and money to be able to have that gun makes it extremely rare.
Well when I see trump or Hillary I'm out. Or left or right wing, I'm just out. What he said wasn't bad but when people wanna make it their point, it gets stupid.
He definitely could have had a drum mag. Not outside the realm of possibility. But my point is merely that you don't need a big magazine.
