“Magazine capacity limits offer no panacea to the rare mass shootings that have alarmed the country,” Gottlieb said. “It is time to stop this nonsense and expose magazine limits as the monumental fraud they are.”
From what I read this kid did not even shoot all of the bullets in his magazines before he changed them.
There goes the magazine theory.
The fact is these people pushing gun bills don’t care about magazines, they wan confiscation of every weapon in the hands of honest citizens in this country.
Do not be fooled. that is the objective.
People will complain that the first mag fired was always short one round and the last mag had an extra round.
Determined people usually can do things better than those that are less determined...
You realize that this isn’t actually about high capacity magazines right? This is about disarming citizens and consolidating government power. All the logic and proof in the world won’t sway them.
It is not about magazines or rifles. It is about getting any law passed so they will have their anti-gun foot in the door to go after their REAL TARGET, Handguns.
It has always been about handguns. Assault rifles are just a decoy to try and get their anti-gun foot in the door.
Once they get a ban on AWs then they will use the same reasons to go after handguns.
John Kennedy killed with a 5 shot bolt action rifle.
Charles Whitman, killed 14, wounded 32 others mostly with a bolt action 6mm hunting rifle. Also used a shotgun and an m1 carbine.
Medgar Evers, shot with a 5 shot 1917 bolt action Enfield rifle.
Martin Luther King, shot with a 4 shot Remington 760 pump action Gamemaster rifle.
Bobby Kennedy with a .22 Iver Johnson Cadet revolver.
George Wallace wounded with a 5 shot Charter Arms .38spl revolver.
Howard Johnsons shooter killed nine, wounded thirteen with a 4 shot RUGER .44 mag Deerslayer rifle.
Gerald Ford attacked with a 7 shot 1911 semi auto.
Edmond OK post office with two National Guard 7 shot 1911 pistols.
Ronald Reagan and Jim Brady with an RG-14 .22 revolver.
What do they all have in common? NONE over 7 rounds, yet after each one came a cry of panic to ban all of them.
