It increases the realistic rate of fire significantly.


What is inherently dangerous about faster fire rate? How fast is too fast?

See above

So guns with slower fire rates are inherently safer? Why is a slower fire rate safer than a faster one?

That's dumb. If you can have a black cat, why can't I have a hydrogen bomb? List the safe explosives in order of safetyness.

You didn't answer the question. If some guns (or accessories) should be banned because they are dangerous then that means the allowed guns must be not dangerous, or safe. List the safe guns in order of safetyness.

Your straw man is weak, but I'll entertain it. As to why you can't have a hydrogen bomb, my guess would be, aside from regulations preventing it, you don't have the cash. I would rank explosive safeness in the order of their volatility. You think that because a law or regulations are in place that I support them. I wold be a proponent of your legal battle to obtain a Hydrogen bomb. Although chances of it happening are probably zero because your pockets aren't that deep.

Not in the near term. However, limiting their availability will certainly help reduce casualties. Where were all the hero concealed carriers who are out there protecting the populace in LV? The extreme gun rights people always say that their carrying protects the population, yet nobody stopped this guy. What gives?


Can you cite your source that shows a yet to be specified limit to rate of fire would reduce casualties in a mass shooting?

Concealed carry firearms are typically handguns with short barrels. A shot out to 300yds is not feasible or ethical to take with such arms. Being responsible individuals with guns, the concealed carry crowd did not return fire that they were not certain would hit their target.

I'm not going to spell out the statistics for you. More bullets = more likely strikes when firing into a large crowd. That's the gist of it.

This type of nonsensical, obtuse argument is why I chose to be obtuse with the concealed carry statement. Are you really going to act like the high rate of fire this dude achieved didn't have any impact on the number of casualties?
