Terrible news today. When will politicians find courage to ban automatic weapons? As in Oz after similar tragedy.

News Corp. chairman and CEO Rupert Murdoch expressed support for an automatic weapons ban tonight following today's shooting in Newtown, Conn.
"Terrible news today. When will politicians find courage to ban automatic weapons?," Murdoch wrote on Twitter.

You are very good with you play on words. Any one with a half a brain knows its very easy to convert a weapon to automatic fire.

Or they can find out how to make a bomb out of ordinary household items on the internet.
And as we know the internet can be shut down by the government.
Then we will be safe, right?

Cindy how many bombs were used to mass murder the public in the US this year?
The same question for knives, scissors or any other weapon.

Well, we know Timothy McVeigh did in OK a few years ago. But, we also know that people that want to kill a lot of people, will find a way to do it. I am sure someone, somewhere knows how many people are killed in the US every day. Some, one, or two, or three, etc. Some kill their whole family. Added together is that not mass murder? Or is it only mass murder if it is done by one person at one time? And they use all kinds of weapons, even their bare hands.

I don't know the numbers but I am pretty sure there were more individual shootings and murders in Chicago to date than all the "mass shootings" in America combined this year.

Please explain why law abiding citizens should have to give up their semi-automatic weapons.
