The Orlando Shooting

Re: The Orlando Shooting.

I know this next statement may cause a lot of controversy, especially with gun owners, but I feel I have to say it.

It is in my honest opinion that guns outside the military and law enforcement should not be produced if they are able to take clips/magazines that house more than 3 or 4 bullets/rounds.

The way I see it is. If someone can't defend themselves with a gun or kill an animal for food within 3 to 4 shots without reloading, then they are a bad freaking shot.

So, that's the first thing.

The second thing is...by eliminating the amount of bullets/rounds within clips/magazines, that will give people who are attacked by the crazies (Examples: Orlando, Sandy Hook, movie theater examples) a fighting chance. Sure, it may only give them 3-4 seconds before a reload, but a lot can happen within 3-4 seconds. Someone can scramble away from the action, or even attack the attacker and prevent him/her from doing any more damage.

So, although I am not sure how my dad (Lead character in Beneath the Bamboo) feels about this since I haven't spoken to him about it yet, my (Jonathon Jones) personal opinion is:

IMO NO gun publicly available should be able to house more than a few bullets per clip. Let's help to stop this madness. Period.
