@Blickers,

The gun makes no difference as has been proven in plenty of mass shooting events. A shotgun and a pistol in TX, a pistol in AZ with the Gabby Giffords shooting, VA Tech was handguns. That's the point that you are missing, you are going for what you think are easy pickings because most people do not understand the difference between actions on guns. You use scary language and usually untrue facts to push a gun grabbing narrative. People are the issue, not the weapon.
The 2013 CDC study on gun violence, showed that there were between 500,000 and 2.5 million uses of gun for self-defense purposes. Should I use Center for Disease Control, or will that sound like I have experience in the disease research field?

I get what is happening, I'm not willing to blame the gun for the actions of mental disturbed people. You want to get rid of guns which will not stop the people. As I have shown above, if they don't have access to a semi-auto rife, they will use what they can get their hands on, that includes homemade bombs. The only solution would be to rid the US of every gun, do you really think that is feasible? If you thought deporting 11 million illegal immigrants was going to be impossible, imagine rounding up over 350 million guns... or stopping someone from making one at home.
