Agree. What is really strange is that I own a Glock 9mm and two of the magazines like the ones the shooter used. But will I use them like he did? Absolutely not. My self defense rounds are loaded into smaller magazines...if my home is invaded and the invading force is so strong that I need more than the 13 rounds they hold, I will die anyway.

For me the larger magazines simply make it more fun to plink.....the point being that it is not the gun that kills. I am not going to argue that the gun made it easier for this loony to kill more people, but were the gun not available he could have used a bomb made from common household chemicals.

I think the attraction to blood and guts on TV and in the movies has something to do with a basic survival instinct that somehow senses pleasure in someone else's demise - sort of a last person standing thing. That we aren't going to change.
