Never heard of it. Working from common sense and geometry here. That's the content of the post I responded to. The post you responded to was me. And my post to him is what you responded to. Who is "him"? Go back six posts from here and it's just you and me. Look at your reader. Look at the list at the top of THIS post. Remember what Robert had said: that there would be "greater fatalities" with a semi-auto. That's the part that's horse****. I never mentioned it. I never heard of it. That makes it your straw man. Jesus. It was the subject of my post, which you responded to. See above. Oh my God. Here's the conversation. My objection was *entirely* about Robert's assertion: ============================================= [Robert] "Given the situation I believe the shooter could have caused greater fatalities with aimed fire." https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt....w/Qc80yQ_MAAAJ [Ed, responding to Robert's post above] "No way, Hose-A. He hit almost 500 people in ten minutes at a range of 300 to 500 yards, many of them running. You need to be settled down for each shot at that range." https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt....w/cxv6ezXQAAAJ [Winston, replying to my post above] "Packed in like that crowd, and from above, I could hit fifty of them in one shot with pack of marbles in a sling shot. Where ever a bullet landed, there was a person, very likely a head." https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt....w/dFeFXJjdAAAJ [Ed, replying to Winston] "Listen crackshot, Robert's "greater fatalities" idea is horse****." https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt....w/elT_0f3fAAAJ [Winston'sreply to me] "No need to get snippy. My only point was that he did NOT need to be a crack shot." [Ed's reply to Winston] "Remember what Robert had said: that there would be "greater fatalities" with a semi-auto. That's the part that's horse****." [Winston's reply to me] Remember what Robert had said: that there would be "greater fatalities" with a semi-auto. That's the part that's horse****.

That's what the conversation was ABOUT! slapping forehead with palm of hand.... -- Ed ****dress Beat it you ****. |
