Good point. If we were to eliminate sales of such magazines, it would have no impact on a person's ability to defend himself against a crime, nor on a person's ability to hunt, nor any other legitimate civilian use. But it would cut down on spree shooting death tolls.
I would far prefer sensible crime control.
This shooter and the shooter in AZ have one thing in common. They were both able to purchase ammunition magazines whose only practical civilian use would be to go on a shooting spree.
Like taking guns away altogether ?
Like taking guns away altogether ? That is the only way to control gun crime.
If I can kill someone by running them over with my car, and can do so every time I try, why then isn't my car considered a weapon only fit to kill another human being?
Good gun control is to have someone (or several) in that audience armed to stop the shooter. If you outlaw magazines, the criminals will just bring extra guns or maybe another more powerful weapon. Be careful of what you ask for.
What's if the person just wanted a large cap magazine just cuz they wanted it. Why does your car go so fast, is there anywhere in this country where it is legal to drive your car over 100MPH?
Latest news shows the shooter mimicked (dressed like) Hollywood actors in the movie... maybe Hollywood actors and producers of the desensitizing violence should be charged with mass murder.
??????????????????????????????????????
Are you telling us, that Criminals, who wish to use Guns, won't break the law, in order to obtain Guns?????
