Proof that buying 10 assault rifles and a small mountain of ammunition doesn't even raise a red flag in the Good Ol US of A.

Americans Hopeful This Will Be Last Mass Shooting Before They Stop On Their Own For No Reason

October, 2017
WASHINGTON—Expressing
a sense of guarded optimism that the latest incident of gun violence
that left 58 dead and 500 injured in Las Vegas would be a turning
point for the nation, Americans across the country confirmed Monday
they were hopeful this would be the last mass shooting before all
such occurrences stopped on their own for no reason at all. “After
something as horrific as what happened in Las Vegas, we’re all just
hoping that now these terrible shootings will stop once and for all
without circumstances changing in any way or any of us taking even
the slightest amount of action in response,” said Harrisburg, PA
resident David Snyder, echoing the sentiments of tens of millions of
citizens from coast to coast who told reporters they were confident
that, after living through the most deadly mass shooting in modern
American history and taking no material steps to change gun laws,
reevaluate safety standards, increase access to mental health care,
or even have a national conversation about how mass shootings could
be avoided in the future, tragedies of this kind would at long last
come to an end. “Having seen acts of violence like this happen over
and over again for years now, I’m really holding out hope that,
despite every single factor that allowed them to occur remaining
exactly the same, we won’t have to live through another day like
today. I know everyone’s praying this will finally be the time this
issue just disappears forever entirely by itself without anyone doing
anything.” At press time, Americans nationwide agreed that years of
taking no measures whatsoever to prevent mass shootings may finally
be paying off.
America's civil war - tearing itself apart.

Another
Day, Another U.S. Mass Shooting

October
02, 2017 "Information Clearing House" - One Stephen Paddock
rented a room on the 32nd floor of a Las Vegas hotel. Over three
days, he brought some ten guns into it. The room was chosen to
overlook the space of on upcoming open air concert.
Last
night Paddock waited for the concert to start and then fired his
automatic weapons into the crowd. At least fifty-eight people died
and some 400 were wounded. The murderer later killed himself.
Paddock
is portrait as a reclusive, well-off retiree and is thought to be a
professional gambler. There is no hint yet of the mans motive. He is
white and has a Christian name. Thus, according to U.S. standards,
his killing spree was not terrorism.
The
state of Nevada allows about anyone to buy and own automatic rifles.
With these one can fire off a full 30 round magazine within a few
seconds. The use of such machine guns leave the victims in an attack
like this no time to escape. With a bit of training a change of
magazines takes less than five seconds. The man must have had more
than a thousand rounds to cause such a number of casualties.
The
statistics paint a horrible picture of gun violence in the U.S. There
is now one mass shooting, with more than four victims, per day:
First
9 months of 2017:
-11,572
gun deaths
-23,365
gun injuries
-271
mass shootings
-1,508
unintentional shootings
-2,971
kids/teens shot
The
Onion headlined: ‘No Way To Prevent This,’ Says Only Nation Where
This Regularly Happens . It was the fifths time in the last three
years that the Onion used the same headline and story. They only
switched the photo, the name of the city and the body count.
The
gun lobby will again say, "Let's not politicize this tragedy by
talking gun control."
Sure,
let's wait a few months, at which time there will be another mass
shooting.
Every
gun massacre is an advertisement for guns. The stocks of gun
manufacturers soared today, casino stocks fell.
