That the media release all these facts about the mass shooting cases to promote Obummers Gun Control Agenda.

154 Rounds in 5 Minutes! (you could do that with a revolver...thats slow)

and I hope it backfires!

Using my non-existent math skills:

5 minutes = 300 seconds

so

154 rounds in 300 seconds

so

.5133333333333 rounds every second

or

1 round every 1.948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051948051 seconds*

Good Lord, I must be bored outta my mind to have wasted my time doing that worthless calculation, to provide worthless statistics, with the half-assed hope that some moron could glean something valuable from this useless tidbit of information.

Wait, a minute.............

Holy crap, I'm doing the exact same thing the Nobama Administration is doing!!!!!!

What's the deal with rounding off to only 49 significant digits?   

copypasted from nbc news. i just pasted the interesting(to me) parts. i literally laughed out loud.

Search warrants from the second-worst school shooting in American history revealed that the home Lanza shared with his mother in Newtown, Conn., was a veritable arsenal: Authorities found at least nine knives, three Samurai swords, two rifles, 1,600 rounds of ammunition and a 7-foot, wood-handled pole with a blade on one side and a spear on the other.
Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy, citing the warrants, also called for stricter gun laws.
“We knew that these weapons were legally purchased under our current laws,” Malloy said. “I don’t know what more we can need to know before we take decisive action to prevent gun violence. The time to act is now.”
The warrants spelled out a vast inventory of weapons and other gun paraphernalia recovered from the Lanza home.
Among the items found were paper targets, gun manuals, earplugs, holsters, almost 40 types of ammunition, nine types of magazines, a bayonet, knives with blades as long as a foot and Samurai swords with blades as long as 2 feet 4 inches.
Authorities also found a starter’s pistol, a BB gun, an NRA guide to pistol shooting and an NRA certificate in Nancy Lanza’s name.
In a statement, the NRA said it had no record of a “member relationship” for the Lanzas, nor for someone with the same last name and their first initials.
“Reporting to the contrary is reckless, false and defamatory,” the statement said.


Besides the Bushmaster and the Glock, authorities found a Sig-Sauer 9mm semiautomatic pistol in the school. In the car outside, police found a shotgun.
All those weapons were legally owned by the mother, authorities have said. Enough public blame and anger has been directed at her that she was left out of many of the memorials and shrines to the Newtown victims.

haha i just realized that the 7 foot bladed pole is probably some type of halberd. always wanted two of those cross mounted on a wall.

Disclaimer:  This is in no way meant to dishonor the lives lost in the Sandy Hook tragedy, but is instead aimed at the media and their penchant for editorializing, sensationalizing, and what sometimes seems to be intentionally misleading viewers/readers, when reporting on events.


If the media can edit their "factual" news reports and incorporate their own "artistic flair" when reporting, then I think it is only fair that I give it a shot, too!!

Search warrants from the second-worst school shooting in American history revealed that the home Lanza shared with his mother in Newtown, Conn., was a veritable arsenal: Authorities found at least nine butter knives, three decorative Samurai swords, two registered and legally-acquired rifles, 1,600 rounds of old, moldy, corroded .22LR ammunition and a 7-foot, wood-handled pole broomstick with a plastic blade on one side and a dull spear-like point, used for digging holes in the garden for seedlings on the other.
Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy, citing the warrants, also called for stricter gun laws.
“We knew that these weapons were legally purchased under our current laws,” Malloy said. “I don’t know what more we can need to know before we take decisive action to enact useless legislation that will have no corresponding effect on preventing gun violence whatsoever. The time to act is now before I fail to get re-elected and get my ass booted out of office.”
The warrants spelled out a vast inventory of weapons and other gun paraphernalia recovered from the Lanza home.
Among the items found were paper targets which any law-abiding firearm owner would frequented a range would have, gun manuals which demonstrates the firearm owner's responsiveness to familiarizing him/herself with proper operation, earplugs to be used in accordance with safety procedures, holsters which are common-place items if you own a handgun, almost 40 types roundsof ammunition, only nine types of magazines due to the on-going magazine shortage that the nation is currently experiencing, an antique bayonet, decorative knives with de-honed blades as long as a foot and decorative Samurai swords with blunted blades as long as 2 feet 4 inches.
Authorities also found a starter’s pistol, a BB gun, an NRA guide to pistol shooting and an NRA certificate in Nancy Lanza’s name, none of which have any bearing on or relevance to this article.
In a statement, the NRA said it had no record of a “member relationship” for the Lanzas, nor for someone with the same last name and their first initials.
“Reporting to the contrary is reckless, false and defamatory,” the statement said.
