Multiple dead in TDKR showing


Recommended Posts

I really fail to see how the type of weapon has any bearing on the situation.

So he couldn't have killed a dozen people with semiauto handguns and a shotgun?

C'mon.

Have you ever shot an AR-15? There is a difference.

He killed 12 and injured 60ish. Equal results wouldn't have happened with a shotgun

Incorrect in just about every way.

You can actually hurt more people with a shotgun, much faster.

Short Barrel would give you a much wider spray.

Not as lethal at a distance however.

My Glock came with 2 clips at 10 rnds ea

My Winchester model 12 holds 6 shells

In thinking that in a dark, crowded, panicked movie theater it wouldn't take all that much skill to come up with those same numbers. Its certainly conceivable to get that body count simply by adding my 38+P Revolver. Throw in a second semi-auto handgun with a second clip and your over the top and not even significantly encumbered.

Disagree. I've shot both. And while the spray on a shot gun is wide, you have to be close and the fire rate is much slower. I've shot an AR-15. I'm not a very experienced shooter and could do some SERIOUS damage quick with it.

With a room full of people you could just go to town.

Um yes.

Yeah that's not going to happen.

I know its scary out there folks, but crazy people exist and they do awful things.

This dude would have hurt people with pipebombs or something similar.

You can't legislate bad things away.

Oh I know it wont. Because the NRA rules and people are dumbass who love their guns and ammo.

Lets keep buying ammo on the same level as buying chewing gum.

Again, incorrect.

Maybe shoot one of these http://www.gunsamerica.com/953044791/Guns/Shotguns/Saiga-Shotguns/Shotguns/SAIGA_RAPTOR_12GA_TACTICAL_SHOTGUN_PACKAG.htm

and get back to me.

A semi-auto assault rifle is actually a pretty horrible choice for shooting into a room of people. It you are looking to inflict as much damage as possible.

Pretty sure you need to be 18 to purchase ammo.

Haven't gotten any in awhile tho.
