... Gunman kills 7 including himself at Seattle party Sat Mar 25, 2006 9:29 PM ET The gunman, whose identity was being withheld, then forced his way into the house and gunned down more victims. He sprayed bullets everywhere while barely saying a word, Seattle Police Chief Gil Kerlikowski said. Oh boy. The plaid shirts in rec.guns are gonna have a field day with this paragraph. Shotgun, "sprayed bullets". "Tell ya what, Clevis. Them reporters don't know the first dern thing about guns". |

Shotgun, "sprayed bullets". "Tell ya what, Clevis. Them reporters don't know the first dern thing about guns". I didn't notice what kind of gun he used to "spray," but the article mentioned he had an "assault rifle" in his vehicle, with 30-round clips. I'm sure it was just a semi-auto rifle, not a full-auto, real-deal assault rifle. If you need a 30-round magazine, you're a bad shot. I heard the police chief's news conference, and the chief did use the word spray. The killer went into the house with two weapons, a pistol grip shotgun and an assault rifle. Like the police chief commented, "A pistol grip shotgun is not a weapon used for hunting, unless you're hunting human beings." If there were some drugs motivating this behavior, it's unlikely that the drug was caffeine. The shooter probably planned this massacre well in advance. After spending time at the party, we went out to his truck where he "just happened to have" (?!) a pistol grip shotgun, a high powered assault rifle, dozens of shells in bandoliers for the shotgun, and hundreds of rounds in assault rifle clips. The kids were having a Zombie party, where people were all made up with fake blood, phony wounds, etc. The theme of the party was gruesome death. This idiot took everything pretty seriously. You have to wonder if the first two shot (on the front porch) saw him walking up with his bandoliers and weapons and just assumed it was part of his party get up? Two of the girls who escaped locked themselves in a upstairs bathroom. When the killer found the door locked, he just fired a big hole in it with his shotgun and went on down the hallway. He missed the girls inside. If that had happened to me, it would have been a good thing that I was in the bathroom, that's for sure. A tragedy for sure. Too bad the sick wacko killed himself before we could study his illness and see if the results could be used to intervene with somebody else headed down the same path......but he did save us multi-millions of dollars and many months of headline news as the trial and (years from now) the execution occured. |

I'm sure it was just a semi-auto rifle, not a full-auto, real-deal assault rifle. A semi-automatic pistor is a military style assualt weapon. A 12 gauge shotgun is a miltiary style assualt weapon. A bayonet is a military style assualt weapon. A stick is a military style assualt weapo, as is a rock. If you need a 30-round magazine, you're a bad shot. Or, you hate reloading after every kill. |

Yeah...I realized I must've missed that. I saw that he had a rifle in the car, but not that he also used one in the house. My bad. |

" Washington has the death penalty? I wouldn't have guessed that. That's because all we hear about is two cities - Seattle and Redmond. This is, of course, true. The coastal cities in Washington have a distinct list to port, but once you cross the mountains, it's a very fine line between Washington and Idaho. |

My guess is that anything with a 30 round magazine is considered an assault weapon. So, a BB gun with a tubular magazine that can hold 40 or 50 projectiles is an assualt weapon? I'm sure they come in real handy when stalking deer. Depends upon whether you just want to wound the deer or ensure the deer is killed. |

Depends upon whether you just want to wound the deer or ensure the deer is killed. I don't really give a damn how many rounds someone carries in one magazine. But, I know a family of real hunters. Grandfather, three sons, 4 grandkids. None of them carry rifles whose mags hold more than 3-5 rounds, and they usually need just two shots to do the job. I suppose these people are unusually skilled, though. Maybe. Around 1972, I was having lunch at the Roscoe Diner, on route 17 in the Catskills, when one of a group of knucklehead hunters blew out the window of a NY State trooper's car with his shotgun. The trooper just shook his head, put down his coffee, looked at the waitress and said "They're back..." It was the first day of hunting season, and all the beginners from NYC were in the area. Maybe those are the idiot hunters you're thinking of when you say 30 rounds is handy to have. What the hell was the guy in the parking lot doing with buckshot in the gun during deer season, when slugs are the correct load? (Never mind that the gun shouldn't have been loaded to start with). Or, the local guy who, last November, blew his kneecap to bits while loading his dead deer into his pickup. |

Purposeful ignorance doesn't get you anywhere Bertie. 30 rounds of ammunition, wherein ANY SINGLE ROUND is enough to kill a human being (for this is what those guns are designed to do) should be considered an assault weapon. "Should be" doesn't mean anything. I'm sure they come in real handy when stalking deer. Depends upon whether you just want to wound the deer or ensure the deer is killed. Oh for ****'s sake Bertie. You need an AK to kill a deer, a moose, a bear? M60 would be my choice if I wanted to get the animal down and dead. I don't want to have to track the critter through the woods. Aren't there far better weapons available for the purpose? Yes there are. |
