Ok, so more people die from accidental drowning in one year...but the problem we should have with mass shootings isn't how many people died. It's about HOW they died. If 50 school children drowned when a bus went off a bridge, it wouldn't be as shocking or horrifying as 10 getting killed by a shooting maniac.
I see the points he's making, but there's no way you can tell me a break for reloading during a shooting spree couldn't save some lives. It's wrong to make the assumption that there's no difference between a single thirty round mag versus 3 ten round mags.
With guns, the toothpaste is already out of the tube. They're not going anywhere, especially with Americans' "you can pry it from my cold, dead fingers" mentality. But is it really going to hurt to make it harder to get guns, and have less of them floating around our society?
