Orlando night club shooting

[tourists24]

Thug, when do you think you would possibly need an assault rifle?

In an indoor space like a night club... What's the difference in having a semi automatic "assault" AR15 and a handgun that can fire continuously?

You are willing to go to war against your own government?

If they turn tyrannical........YES.

How would you get it past security?

There are many "assault rifles" that are far less effective for that purpose than pistols. And many that are effective but are still less than a pistol. But liberals can't get over how scary AR15s look. It blinds them to logic.

That makes absolutely no sense.

Back to the topic at hand.

Would a metal detector, either fixed or hand held, coupled with a quick pat down, at the entrance have prevented this?

Maybe... but shouldn't that be a choice made by the private business? Or should the government mandate it?

There was a Orlando police officer in uniform on duty outside, I believe he was the first to engage the suspect. Second you don't need a metal detector to pick up an AR-15 that's a fairly large weapon.

Nobody needs an AR-15 to protect themselves in America. This isn't Somalia.

Another anti-gun idiot statement.

the ar15 is NOT an "assault" rifle.

The difference is the rifle cartridge has more power than a hand gun cartridge.

more power, more destruction

Capacity?

 

[Operational needs]

you can let me know. my bet is it was hours afterwards.

of course i dont hear too many americans talking about all the buildings israel blows up in occupied palestine. or even the buildings america blows up all around the world; in iraq for example. a little moral consistency would go a long ways...

And a little more of YOU worrying about Canada and letting us AMERICANS worry about America would go even further.

Wut?

He's in his own, possibly drug induced, world. Who knows?

I can get you a setup for a pistol that holds 35 shots 9mm within a week.
Looks like a pretty easy kit.

 

[Operational needs]

im talking about being morally consistent. all human lives are precious.

and i dont think operational needs is an example of that.

I beg to differ, as would others.

It's his wet dream.

AR---Assault Rifle

The AR in "AR-15" rifle stands for ArmaLite rifle, after the company that developed it in the 1950s. "AR" does NOT stand for "assault rifle" or "automatic rifle."

AR stands for ArmaLite. The original designer.
