Well Ron if nothing else, serious training before one can own a semi auto. That I would agree to. And the gun did jam according to the news. The gun is not designed to hold a 30 round magazine. The spring inside the extended aftermarket clip malfunctioned (thank God). And yes the political rambling on the networks is odorous to say the least. A lot of good people died including a young girl for no reason at all. Now disturbed people do things for reasons the clear minds cannot comprehend. For their 15 minutes of fame, because of depression, because of deep routed hate. Who the heck knows. All I know is it keeps happening more and more lately, and sadly it will continue I think. Hate bantering between parties does not push a clear minded person into doing such things. However, it doesn't help the borderline wack job to think clear either as Bob said. I have no solutions, only questions.
