Boston, Paris, Orlando, Las Vegas. Islam has no place in the west.
Oh dear, time to get out the constitution again... freedom of speech etc etc etc worship.,... blah blah blah and guns.
By the way, top marks for getting Paris included, but please can we have a definition of the west - isn't that cowboy country?

Abortion is wrong. Murder is wrong. Carrying guns is the duty of good free men.
Quite the little soldier - did you serve your country or get gun practise in the woods?
by the way
unlimited arms will lead to increased gun crimes, more folks with guns they don't understand will lead to more deaths.
Untill there are strict rules applied to the purchasing of guns, till there are strict laws dealing with correct gun training then the USA will come a murder patch.

I presume, on the same freedom of guns you agree with the use of drugs...

Paddock - the Las Vegas shooter - was retired and purchased the home in a retirement community in Mesquite in 2015. in with him in . Paddock was not on any domestic terrorist lists. A criminal records search revealed that he had a citation several years ago but other than that he was unknown to most police departments.

Paddock’s brother Eric told reporters that Paddock had no political affiliations. He was not involved with any terror groups. He said “He must’ve just snapped”. At this point in the investigation Paddock’s brother’s explanation is as good as any of the other ones out there because at this point, no one knows what caused Paddock to bring 10 semi-automatic rifles into a hotel room and begin shooting at a crowd across the street.

Your knowledge of guns and gun law shows pure ignorance, typical of an Englishman.

As for drugs, legalize them.

Nothing to see here folks. The NRA will lay low and all their enablers will focus on useless “prayers” and let’s not discuss anything until we can honor the dead. And then two weeks later it’s all down the 24/7 memory hole and nothing changes.

There is no such thing as a silencer. I think you mean a suppressor. They do not silence a rifle. Again you show your ignorance.
Can you put a suppressor on any firearm?


It would be hard to find a firearm that couldn’t take a suppressor. The “worst case” would be having to bore out the inside of the barrel, then thread the inside of the widened barrel, then fit a custom suppressor that threaded to the inside of the barrel, and extended the barrel to the original length (or more) and incorporated suppressor features.

Odd shaped barrels, or odd materials may be harder to modify to accept a suppressor, but with enough effort, almost any firearm could be fitted with one. Even if you had to replace the stock barrel with a modified one to make it work.

First of all Industriallies, a suppressor does not silence a firearm. It is still very loud even fitted with a suppressor. Second, suppressors are already perfectly legal, it is just that one must pay a $200 tax and wait for the ATF to process paperwork. Why would the shooter in this instance, bother with a suppressor? He wouldn't.

"In its claim, Islamic State said the gunman had converted to Islam a few months ago, according to the group's news agency Amaq.

U.S. officials said American security agencies were examining the claim of responsibility.

"The Las Vegas attack was carried out by a soldier of the Islamic State and he carried it out in response to calls to target states of the coalition," Amaq news agency said in reference to the U.S.-led coalition fighting the group in the Middle East."
