    you are right-all the ban did was to make Colt et al change their firearms slightly and the cost of normal capacity magazines increased a bit but dealers were able to get around that-at least for things like Glocks, ARs and some other popular weapons by giving police departments brand new "Law enforcement only" (which should be unconstitutional-anything police have civilians should be able to have) magazines in trade for pre 1994 magazines that the dealers could legally sell to private citizens. Lots of active duty military managed to get their hands on scrapped M16 mags as well. I was given a bag of M16 mags that were missing the anodization and thus were going to be scrapped

    Again, media report a lot on what sells. They are in business to make money.

    gun banners need shootings where they can claim additional harassment of lawful gun owners is needed. when a crack dealing black felon with a record a mile long kills a bunch of people in a democrat run area with democrat imposed gun laws, that situation is not particularly useful for their cause. When a white guy with a clean record buys an AR 15 and passes a background check, they can then claim a ban or long waiting period is needed

    the race card is the stock in trade of the left wing. Not hers

    No it’s not. These people shoot each other every day in major cities. It’s THEIR behavior that’s the problem.

    Yes, there's a lot of racism in this country, covert and overt. What is your point as it relates to the Wadeville shooting? It is not racism, (overt or covert) when posters are partaking in serious discussions as to how this shooting will be discussed differently than shootings by a white guy. In another week, 10, 9, 8, it will be swept under the rug because we all know that the real problems for society are the white mass shooters.

    They act like their culture which creates music specifically glorifying the criminal misuse of guns and other criminal activity is someone else's fault and that it has nothing to do with that lifestyle.

    Waaaah, cry some more. Your OP was wrong. Deal with it.

    "wasn't wrong about why the real issues surrounding black on black crime will be buried like last week's garbage."

    Keep proving dairyair right some more. That was the whole point of the thread. The event itself wasn't the point at all from your OP, those involved or who he perceived to be involved was the point.

    Certainly is damaging to the narrative that right wing domestic terrorist are the biggest threat in America..... That piece of misinformation is absurd and contradicted daily by stories like these

    The media report has a leftist slant. Hence, why Wadeville will get very little coverage in the week/weeks ahead. Just like all the mass black on black shootings almost every weekend in urban cities. Who cares?

    Many from the gun grabbing left can't handle the truth.

    In your eagerness to provoke and ridicule the poster, you are calling this her op which it is not.

    Perhaps if you focus more on the story instead of individuals you might not confuse the basic facts.

    Wow fascinating. So when people burn down cities, or mobs invade and loot stores, don’t you dare pay attention to what they look like:). But look at all those MAGA white people invading the capital for 2 hours. WHITE SUPREMACY!!

    A white couple minding their own business in their house shows guns on their front porch to a mob who broke into their gated community and it’s white supremacy??

    A white guy shoots other white guys in self defense during a BLM riot and it’s more white supremacy?

    Coffee is white supremacy.

    Math is white supremacy!!

    Showing up on time in white supremacy!!!

    Being clean shaven or a close neat haircut, looking professional, is just MORE white supremacy!!!!

    Sensing a pattern here. Sensing a lot of Subjective OUTRAGE!!

    Also, fewer black coaches in the NFL is white supremacy, but far more black players is just merit:)

    Hahahhaha. You want more? We can do this all day with Leftist BS outrage when we notice things, but need to keep our mouths shut when anyone calls it out.

    First of all, that's false. There are plenty of countries with much higher violent crime rates than ours, and secondly, we already have an example from our recent history in which more prisons and longer sentences did in fact reduce crime. So I'm puzzled why this resistance to something that we know works because it has not that long ago.

    Nope, you are wrong. The projection is strong here. :above: It is people like yourself who don't want to talk about the actual "event" in Wadeville, or other cities in America, the event being black on black mass shootings and how it is swept under the rug.

    The whole point of this thread for some posters is political fodder, race card play, and strawmen arguments that are easily knocked down by people who are well informed on the issues. Like me. :)

    Interestingly that tracks with the The Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of...wait for it... 1994!

    In this case I've not heard that this shooting was with assault rifles. Is that what you think happened? These teens had assault rifles?

    No, the real problem in society and guns is not about white mass shooters.
    It's about all shooters and the reasons why we have so many. If one were to take partisan biases out of it.

    Mental health issues is a major reason, IMO.
    There's likely 3-4 majors reasons why we have so much shootings.

    None of which would ever be addressed.

    So, thoughts and prayers is the best our country can do.

    Media report on what sells.
    They are in the business of making money.
    Stories that sell is what gets published.

    Bravo!

    Remember the Louisville mass shooting as to how some tried to develop a fake narrative where they faulted the Christian right for the sick psyche of that transgender KILLER? The goal? To elicit sympathy for those who deserve NONE. There's always a fake narrative with the people trying to desperately control the world. The liars are not liberals either. Authoritarians, the entire lot.
