Less lethal?
Are the victims less dead?
Where are his parents?
At least 10 people may disagree with the USA Today headline that the guns were less lethal — except that they are dead.
Maybe, because one of the weapons was a handgun, the bullets did not travel as fast [re: one newie comment on the Parkland shooting that handgun bullets travel slower than rifle bullets].

It boggles the mind what Leftist brains can conjure up.
Dead is dead, lethal is lethal. A person is not MORE dead than another, nor is one gun more lethal than another.
Less lethal? Ten killed and 10 wounded despite prompt police response seems pretty darn lethal to me. The cop onsite got there quick enough to be wounded by the bad kid and follow on cops came in soon thereafter. The shotgun and .38 revolver were as deadly as the press’s favorite bad semi-auto rifles and pistols.
The problem is not guns. It’s society.
When I was a kid guns were everywhere, and much easier to obtain. Yet the concept of mass killing, with the rare example of say, Charles Whitman in the UT Tower, was otherwise virtually unknown. Now it seems there’s a mass killing every week, and even every day!
Since those early days of the 50s & 60s, education, mass media, Hollywood, advertising, etc., have changed America in so many ways it is not the country it was then, no less that which came out of the Revolution and the Constitution.
There’s more people, and a concomitant rise of the overall mentally incompetent and unsocialized evildoers in our midst. But the availability of guns is NOT the reason. It is society itself.

Wow. Just. Wow.
Even though an AR wasn’t used, they can’t resist mentioning it.
The ‘best’ part is that at the ranges inside a school, a shotgun is actually the more effective or by these idiots’ terms ‘lethal’ weapon.
But they all said if AR15s were banned, then there would be no more school shootings.
The punk was just following biden’s advice about using a shotgun.
Isn’t Dead, still dead?? are there different classifications of Dead??
Not rational. At close range buckshot is every bit as lethal as 5.56.
Tell that to the victims.
At least he got one thing right:
The standard magazine for an AR-15 holds 30 rounds...
The Ministry of Lies can hardly demonize shotguns since Joe Biden busts off rounds from his back porch when startled.
lethal:
“sufficient to cause death.”
I believe that ALL the “dead” kids in ALL the school shootings, are just as DEAD, regardless of the weapon used.
Lethal = DEAD
Less lethal = less DEAD? I don’t think so, but I’m not a urinalist.
Translation: Guns used in Texas shooting weren’t as scary looking than other shootings.
The last 100 year old handgun I had could empty a mag of .45 in less than one second by utilizing low powered rounds and a loose hand grip.
So does that mean the ten who perished are less dead then those who died from other weapons?
Why do we allow these stupid people at USA Today to ever be part of any discussion?
