The political correct nonsense of this report is best illustrated by the following.

"...the commonality of high-capacity firearms in violent crimes must be acknowledged. According to the 2011 Connecticut Uniform Crime Reporting Program, only two (2) of 94 firearm-related homicides in the state were committed with a rifle or a shotgun. It is the consensus of the Commission that firearm lethality is correlated to capacity, a correlation borne out not only in Sandy Hook Elementary School, but in other violent confrontations in and beyond Connecticut. Therefore, the Commission believes that the State of Connecticut should carefully consider:

10. Prohibiting the possession, sale or transfer of any firearm capable of firing more than 10 rounds without reloading. This prohibition would extend to military-style firearms as well as handguns. Law enforcement and military would be exempt from this ban..."

What were the moron on the commission smoking when the came up with that? How many shots were fired in those TWO homicides where a long gun was used? In those TWO instances was a AR-15 ever used?
