guy definitely used full autos, only thing accounts for the RPM heard on the recordings and death toll.

with such strict regulation, how could someone obtain such an automatic weapon???

its much easier than you think it would be to just buy full auto weapons since there's so many loopholes around them

guns are good and there should be no restrictions but also he totally should not have had his machine gun and whoever gave it to him is actually the bad guy.

u also don't need to buy full auto (which is real annoying and expensive), just get a 100% legal and easy bump stock.

Considering the distance this shooting took place at, wouldn't the fact that the silencer slows the round down considerably have resulted in potentially less hyperdeath?

The bullet drop would be more noticeable and have to be corrected for, but it would still be deadly.

I think your brain has been numbed and forgot how horrific the response to Sandy Hook was and I don't blame you one bit, everything is hosed up. But this doesn't feel any worse to me.

I think we'll need to get to the point of 51% of Americans being directly affected by gun violence before any laws change, give or take a few points based on gerrymandering.

Sandy Hook was 2012 before social media really exploded everywhere and everyone had access to it. People are much more directly confronted with Vegas compared to back then and are much more connected to someone who would point out how loving ridiculous our gun laws are

of course the chuds will double down but they're not the majority, not close to it

I dunno, I'm not making any predictions, but the response to this feels different already and it's not even 24 hours, maybe I'm just connected to too many leftists nowadays
