    I was only trying to provide information from the State Police regarding the weapons used as there had been numerous conflicting reports. I simply copied what was publish and posted it. It was not my intent to perpetuate false information. I promise I will not make this mistake again as this will be my last post on INGO.

    Calm down. People are very sensitive about these issues and it spills over a bit. Hang around, don't take it personally.

    I took their comments as being upset by the way the media reported it, not at you. :yesway: you actually did the service of posting it here to allow the conversation to be had.:ingo:

    I think trying to make the issue vocabulary and definitions is a distraction from the issues that are really at the core of the current debate.

    No one in favor of stricter gun control cares what these things are called. They care about capabilities.

    I thought the OP was informative.

    You can't just end your membership in some random thread like this. You need to start your own thread about how unfair everyone is so we can all chime in and [STRIKE]make fun of you[/STRIKE] express our true feelings [STRIKE]by ridiculing[/STRIKE] and then hold hands then ultimately sing - Kumbaya.

    I'm sure it's in the rules somewhere. :rules:
    Think of us and our feelings.

    Any gun forum in the current atmosphere of gun control debates is gonna be a pretty crazy place. You gotta be able to roll with it.

    Not to mention. Opinions are like butt holes. Everyone has one and they all stink ;)

    Au contraire. It is exactly because the other side has controlled the vocabulary that we are in the current pickle to begin with. Controlling the conversation is priority #1. All else flows from that. You cannot win a battle of ideas without controlling the conversation.

    I see the OP is another "can dish it but can't take it" kind of poster.

    That's a good point about the battle for ideas. I guess to continue the metaphor. You can win a lot of battles and still lose the war. Winning the war is about crushing the opposition's will to fight. I don't think that happens in the "It's not called a clip, it's called a magazine" battle.

    I am aware that you did Not write the above BUT to Edit Your Post, a 30 round magazine is NOT a High Capacity Magazine but a magazine of normal proportion and in use daily legally by millions of law abiding American Gun Owners .
    I also take Issue with Seized from Adam Lanza since the Shotgun was LOCKED in the trunk of the vehicle and he was Deceased.
    When WE as Gun Owners Allow the Media to perpetuate these false reporting of fact, then WE too are part of the Problem :patriot:
    AMEN, to THIS, I was ISSUED 20 & 30 ROUND magazines, in BOOT CAMP, in 1977, and 30 round Magazines, when I "hit the FLEET" !!!!! In the INARNG, all we had were 20 & 30 "rounders" !!!!! AFAIK, 10 round mags, were NON exist..... even during the "mag ban", !!!!! :twocents:
