Is Sullivan the father of one of the people killed at the theater? If so, I heard him talking about a 100 round magazine and how his son never had a chance. He didn't seem to mention what kind of bullet actually took his son's life, as I'm under the impression that the big mag jammed after only three rounds fired.
Thats my understanding as well. He would have been better off with hunting legal 5 roundersQuote:

I've yet to find a decent breakdown of the events during the Aurora theater shooting.
keeping my fingers crossed. If someone could keep this thread updated for those of us who can't stream this from work, that would be fantastic.
+1 Why would they tell the truth?Quote:

Votes get collected and rating go up, but nothing is actually done to fix the "bad guy" problem. Instead, law abiding citizens are either oppressed or made criminals by arbitrary legislation while the "bad guys" continue to skirt the law.Quote:

What's worse is that the money and effort being exhausted to overturn this legislation quite frankly could be put to better use, but we have no other choice.
Shitsack's Betamag jammed a few rounds in. Most of those shot were with a shotgun, but that doesn't fit with the agenda.Quote:

Evil men are intent on evil deeds, regardless of the tools given. It's not like 5 10-round magazines are less destructive than 1 50-round magazine. It's again, blaming an object for a PERSON and their actions.Quote:
