re: #13 HappyWarrior
the difference between fully auto fire and semi auto fire is worth knowing. O,e is lgal today. the other, not since the 1930’s. I am very glad the mass shooters did not have a full auto gun. The toll could have been far higher. particularly in Aurora.
We should stop talking assault weapons (a thoroughly abused term) and talk specifics. High capacity high caliber with fast reloads is too much to allow. “Assault weapon” is a loaded phrase, (pun intended)
