blah de fucking blah...

You know what I'm talking about. I'm talking about anything other than a single-action non semi-automatic, if you want to get down to brass tacks.
Yes, but do YOU know what YOU're talking about?
Like someone else pointed out, for instance, the rifle that Lanza used was the same type that's been available to the American public for at least 50 years, and it's a semiautomatic rifle.
One of the big points being that there's nothing new to see here. Absolutely nothing new at all. But a whole lot of people want to knee-jerk like it's the latest fad that just appeared to threaten the tranquility of the Seas of Cheese.
