trained/experience with firearms, with a semi automatic weapon, with high capacity mags (I'd guess).

Banning guns would benefit this country more than it would harm it.
Hypothetically, if all guns are destroyed in America, the murder rate would drastically drop, senseless violence like this would halt and all the people with the dumb analogies about "spoons making people fat" and "a car can kill people too" would finally shut the hell up.
Then you'd have the pro-firearm group whining about their rights and what would they do in a situation that likely would never happen.
Guns are legit ones of the worst things ever created, but this country was 'founded' on intimidation through firearm, theft, and mass killing so it is basically just a continution.

If he's ducked off in a balcony in a nightclub, i could see this happening easily. It's already crowded so if you're overlooking a crowd, it's headshots everywhere. He could close his eyes and let the semi spray and still do damage.

when regular old folks have access to assault rifles then there is a problem but I digress

Living in Orlando, it is easy to get guns and there isn't much security measures to get into clubs. Even Disney Springs, you just walk straight in.
Crazy. Back to back nights. Both shooters came from out of town too.

I'm sure the club has multiple surveillance cameras. They should release some videos. You would think there were multiple shooters with that type of accuracy/ amount of deaths. I don't know that much about guns but wouldn't he have had to reload multiple times?

Was he hiding behind a balcony, though?
Even if he was, he had a 30 round mag in the AR and at the most 16 inthe hand gun.
We sure this dude ain't Deadpool?

I think banning high capacity mags is a more reasonable/effective idea. No reason someone needs a semi automatic firearm with a 30+ round mag.

Bombs were too. Last time I checked, they weren't legal. Mass Murderers still use em.
If U.S could ban all guns, black market, etc.
Mass murderers will just change the instrument they use.
It's low hanging fruit.

Very hard to stop someone willing to die for his beliefs, no matter the gun laws that are in place

So many strawman and flawed analogy in this thread. This is why there will never be any meaningful discussion. Everyone got their mind made up and more intent on proving the other side wrong than hearing their points.

Exactly my point.
And fear got most of these emotional *** fools voluntarying to give up their gun rights.
Dat logic.
If people could conceal and carry like they are supposed to, ain't nobody killing 50 people anywhere on american soil. Its simple.

They said that club typically checks for guns but the guy didn't start the shooting until after 2am, so the security is much more lax at that time because people are leaving more than arriving.

I haven't seen any recent updates but I thought I saw he had a tech9. You can have 100 round drum for them, and a 100 round ar drum too for that matter

It's fish in a barrel man. Imagine the amount of people concentrated in a small area, the level of intoxication, and loud music. You really think it would be that hard? Dude had a plan.

The 9/11 planes were taken down by groups of men with box cutters. If someone wants to kill they will kill.
