Where is anyone reporting that he did NOT use the AR? That is the version that came out in the first few hours after the ass hole went nuts in the school. In spite of all the evidence, that story just won't die. all evidence-or lack thereof aside, I maintain that arguing "was the AR/wasn't the AR the primary weapon" is a self defeating argument in that we are giving legitimacy to the fact that it matters at all what the firearm this insane azzhole used to commit this heinous crime. IMO regardless of what an individual believes the 'real story' of the firearm used is, this just needs to be let go.. We say and KNOW it's not the gun, its the person; Well going on, and on about it wasn't THIS gun, it was THAT gun IMPLIES that it makes a difference if it was. It doesn't, end of story! Nothing is implied unless you are inferring.  We were only discussing facts of the incident. The nutbar killed those children, not the guns.

The end of this quote is the most ridiculous part of the article. Can they get any more biased while writing?
In a top drawer of a filing cabinet, they found paper targets. In a duffel bag, they found ear and eye protection, binoculars, numerous paper targets and Lanza's NRA certificate. (his license to kill)
No - skewing the facts by accident or design is what the media does best. Apparently fair and accurate reporting is a very difficult thing to achieve. The NRA certificate was, I read somewhere, from an NRA conducted gun-safety course he took. Apparently it took, as he didn't shoot anyone, even himself, by accident.

None are "lethal" unless used in that manner. I gotta wonder why you are even on this board, sugartits.

Lauren,
Curious as to what your take is on NY states new gun laws?
I fully expected to see a join date of March 2013 below your name but it appears you've been around for awhile.

gun law is nyc telling the rest of us how to be. I've been doing this since the 70's. Black guns weren't around back then. We have always had hand gun registration in ny, nothing but a pain in the ass and overall deterrent to wanting to mess with them.

Do you mean that AR type rifles were not popular/available to civilians in the 70s? I have no idea when then they started being made available for civilians but Vietnam sure saw its share of the M-16.

A friend bought an AR in 1976.

I remember the first time I heard somebody say they bought a Bushmaster. I wasn't sure if they bought a new lawn mower or a lesbian porno:)

Theoretically, if the 1994 ban was still on, would he have had that weapon or those 30 round mag.'s? Yes, but the rifle wouldn't have had a flash suppressor or bayonet lug. 30rd mags were readily available throughout the ban. The asshat didn't seem to be deterred by the law that made schools a gun free zone, laws prohibiting murder, theft, etc. What makes you think the AWB would have mattered to him?
