    As far as I know no mass shooting (outside of gangs) has been done with a “machine gun”. Actual, legally purchased full auto guns are illegal after 1986 l and those produced before that are extremely rare and require registration. Sure it’s not difficult to create a fully automatic rifle, but that being the case there still hasn’t been one in a mass shooting.

      Okay I’m obviously not educated enough about guns. Because we don’t need them here, i guess. Turns out the preferred weapons of choice for mass shooters are just SEMI automated guns.

      Makes it all so much better, nothing to see here!
