If he was alive today we’d hear:
1. What average citizen needs such a dangerous weapon that fires multiple shots quickly?
2. Only the military should have such a weapon, civillians should only be allowed single shot weapons.
3. We need to know who has these kinds of assault weapons, they need to be registered and need special licenses to carry multiple-shot firearms.
4. What kind of sick mind comes up with such an instrument of death? What’s the purpose other than to slaughter a whole array of people at once?
That’s what he’d be up against today.
Colt would have never made it that far today. He would be in prison for possession of nitrous oxide with intent to distribute.
