Sandy Hook families take gun case to state Supreme Court

48. Amazed this is still being debated, but let me interject something.

For all of jimmy's objections, let's not forget that the specific AR-15 used in the shooting, the one that is the subject of all the swirl and anger from the gun banners, IS A SEMI-AUTOMATIC RIFLE THAT ACCEPTS A DETACHABLE MAGAZINE.

Yes, mea culpa, I was unaware that there were AR-15 variants that ARE full-auto. I have since done a little reading on the history of the AR-15. So, YES, there are full auto AR-15s. But that's not what I was talking about. I was talking about the semi-auto version manufactured by Bushmaster and sold to the civilian population. There are, arguably, many more millions of the semi-auto version available than the full version, esp. since any full auto manufactured after 1986 would NOT be available for civilian purchase by any legal means.

Why jimmy decided to go off on a tangent about full auto AR-15s, which were NOT used in the shooting, NOT the focus of the lawsuit, and NOT the firearms being referenced in the original article I was quoting, I don't know.
