...and your point is? This guy was going to be a cop. He is a Marine and should have had better gun handling practices. The prosecutor will decide if he acted recklessly. This is a tragic situation.

This in no way speaks for gun control laws. Accidents happen and will always happen. In fact all the gun laws would not have prevented this because he was hired a a cop and is entitled to be armed.

You ought to change yoour avitar to the S&W .50cal revolver. I saw a picture of it being fired at night and all that was visible was on hellacious muzzel flash. Very impressive and it even has a sling attached. One mean bullet launcher.

There is no use for assault weapons in our civilized nation. Assault weapons are only designed to kill people. They're not designed for any other purpose including hunting and anyone who says they are don't have a clue as to what hunting is about. Those who wish to and do own assault weapons are ill.
Ban assault weapons and any other weapon designed to kill people.

Locking and loading-rocking and rolling..... Actually I've been having a prolonged celebration in honor of the SCOTUS's Heller decision. Drinks on me..... Iced tea,lemonade,V-8 on ice. All the good stuff.

<quoted text>As for the automatic issue, what you say is true. BUT, you and I both know how easy it is to convert many of these weapons to full auto. This I admit, has been going on long before the ban expired.
Perhaps we should just make tougher penalties for manufacturers who make it easy to convert their weapons to full auto? Or do we just take the stance of "there's always going to be a bad apple who modifies everything, including his guns"?

How "easy" is it to convert a semiautomatic rifle to full auto? Do you really know, or are you just blowing smoke? It may be "easy" for a trained machinist with a machine shop handy, but it's still not legal. While you're at it, how many illegally converted semiautomatic rifles have been used in crimes here in the US, sparky? For that matter, how many legally-owned automatic weapons have been used in crimes in the US?

Well, you really must know? All it takes is a shoelace for most semi-auto rifles.

Think about it.
