when was the last time an automatic weapon was used in these mass shootings?
its been decades lol. less then i can count on my 2 hands that happened in 100 years.
To be honest, I don't know, and it doesn't really bother me cause I know it's extremely rare
that said, I think the naval yard shooting had an automatic rifle but I'm not 100% on that.
You know what I hate?
everything
That's not guns
that's mental stability
guns don't drive people insane and push them over the brink, guns ARE the brink. A tool, if you will. Almost every killing spree I have ever heard of, the shooter had poor mental health, was unstable, and had some form of depression or social disorder.
Stop focusing on the "ban the guns"
focus on the healthcare, caring for people, humanity working as one, etc
Very rarely does a shooter have a reason. They just want a release or a dramatic exit. They also wear clothes when they go shooting, most drive cars to the area, they probably have wristwatches, glasses, etc? Can we ban those because a shooter used them? No. But we can ban a gun because it's a weapon of mass destruction.
Consider this:
In the last three decades, there have been 62 mass shootings. Humor me and say that's 1 shooter per shooting. The US population as of posting this is roughly 314,000,000. 314 million. 62/314,000,000. I dunno how many ways I can put this, the amount of people abusing firearms is so infinitesimally small that this honestly shouldn't even be considered a national crCIA, it's only a big deal because news media
makes money by showing us all the ugly stuff that goes on. How many times have you heard of a school saved by a resource officer with a gun, or a concealed carry gun owner taking down a criminal, or a violent crime being stopped via self defense. Not on CNN I'll tell you that much.
