As far as the focus on the Bushmaster, I think it just takes one shooting massacre, no matter what gun was used, to bring the issues to the forefront.
The shooters mother had multiple guns, it's possible that he left one of them behind in the car, doesn't mean he didn't take a rifle with him into the school.

How practical is it to carry two rifles???

Actually this is old news. It was reported on Fox news. If it was not reported on left wing liberal media it was because it didn't fit their agenda just like they didn't report Benghazi they didn't report it because it didn't fit Obama's "the world is a safer place" agenda. They didnt report Benghazi until they were forced then tried to blow it off as unimportant. It does not surprise me at all.

So quotes from the police and chief medical examiner which were given AFTER the clips you've posted are wrong? The police were extremely careful about releasing details in the days after the shooting to avoid all of this conspiracy BS. When the actually confirmed the weapons, it was days after the shooting. Sorry, but you're wrong... and obviously quite gullible to believe such nonsense.

Finally, NBC corrected themselves, and reported.....

At one point, law enforcement officials told NBC News that Lanza had four handguns while he stalked the halls of Sandy Hook, but that could not be confirmed. It appears he carried at least two 9mm handguns, in addition to the rifle, which was the primary weapon.

Agreed. I had seen this very topic a week ago in a different forum discussed with level heads. Perhaps Rush just shouldn't have been mentioned.

The gun being cleared in that video is not a shotgun, it's a Bushmaster .223 rifle. I take it you haven't been around too many evil black rifles in your life.

The medical examiner confirmed that the primary weapon used was a rifle. Wall Stree Journal reported this. Is the Wall Street Journal a socialist newspaper now??

No. The cops said it to the media in their first press conf.
Sadly, all the media and gun grabbers heard was "AR15", and started peeing down their legs with glee.
This tragic event is exactly what these loons were waiting for.
Whatever they pass will never work, though. I'm ignoring whatever retarded laws they drum up. If the thugs have these weapons to commit crimes and murder, then I'll have the same type of weapon to defend my family and myself.
You loons do what you want, call 911, they'll eventually show up. Just don't look my way for help.
