The inability to suffer humiliation seems to be a common thread with these shooters. It’s normally something learned as a kid losing in competition.

Flicker shad, young people are who were being committed. Tested at school when problems arose. People who were mentally slow were sent to a different school instead of holding back the rest of the class.

Yes. Wanting to commit mass murder is definitely a symptom of mental illness.

Look at Ted Bundy. A psychopath. Nuttier than a pet coon. Doesn't mean he was incapable of planning and executing a crime. Doesn't mean he didnt know right from wrong. He had no personal sense of right and wrong but knew what society expected.

Confining the mentally ill won't stop mass murder but it will lower the incidence significantly.

I dont consider my AR’s assault weapons - I consider them anti assault weapons. To me, an AR 15 is the finest hunting weapon ever made - for my purposes. No, I wouldnt take one on an elk or elephant hunt - but for deer, black bear, hogs, antelope, varmints, etc - they are hard to beat. My 6.5 Grendel with the collapsable stock fits my ten yr old grand daughter - or my son who is 6’3”. All picatinny scope rings fit my PSA .300 aac or my Remington AR 15 .450 Bushmaster or Daniel Defense .308 AR 10. I can mount red dots, night lights, thermals, night vision, regular scopes - almost any optic made. I can use a five round mag for deer hunting or a 30 rd mag for hogs. The mags fit all my guns of like caliber - and some of different calibers. The same timney trigger fits every one of my rifles. I can go prairie dog hunting with a .223 during the day, and in 30 seconds, swap out the upper to a .450 bushmaster and thermal for night time hogs. Stocks, forearms, barrels, bolts, etc are largely interchangeable. I cant think of a better designed HUNTING rifle for small to medium sized game than an AR style rifle.

The "need" argument is probably the weakest argument to make against guns for the purposes of the second amendment. To make that argument, the assumption has to be basically a one on one duel situation, which coincidentally was legal for a long time in this country.

An assault weapon used in a non-military application such as hog hunting or target shooting does not remove it from its primary design and definition as an assault weapon. There are many classic military rifles that do not meet my definition of an assault weapon (Mauser 98s come to mind, even the Gaarand), but I am hard-pressed to see that AR and AK knock offs are far removed from their original purpose, which is to efficiently and quickly kill as many people as possible.

Get yourselves a mess of them javelin missiles.they look like a lot of fun and besides the govt has a ton so you better catch up.

Your kidding yourself.
if that was the case you could just drag them out into the street and beat them to death.

Well I can't because the government infringes on my rights. The constitution says arms shall not be infringed not just gun.

"Second Amendment
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

I dont think they thought it out very well.
They didnt foresee half the people of the free state being at direct odds with the other half of the people of the free state.
They thought all the people would be on the same side against the government.
