Any illegal modifications or parts?All guns are legally purchased.

You are wrong, on multiple points. Authorities said all modifications were legal. I suggest you watch the news conference from yesterday.You are wrong about that.
Its illegal to modify a rifle to fire automatically.
I still maintain this guy had something like an M249 (belt fed) or an AK47 with a drum magazine. The cadence of the fire was too constant for a modified rifle with a bump stop.
The guns that they have shown had standard 30 rd magazines and maybe a 50 rd. Videos have shown at least 100 rounds going off non-stop.
I think this guy bought a bunch of weapons as show. I think he had some sort of message to send.

Yet another myth, the NRA barely gives to those in Congress, compared to other lobbying groups, they don't control Congress they couldn't even rent them for the lousy 3 million they give a year. And that was in a presidential election year.

You want to see who owns Congress, take a look at how much employee unions and pharmaceutical companies donate to Congress. I'm not disputing that they're not owned I'm just disputing who owns them. The gun lobby is weak.
Hell, she isn't even that far off base. Look at the depictions of guns in school, guns when talked about in the media, guns when talked about by Hillary or Obama, they distort the truth, make things look worse than they are and tell lies. They spread ignorance willfully period while I don't agree with the NRA and don't even hold a membership anymore she's not too far off base.
If you go back to when the 2nd amendment was written, and use the guns the 2nd amendment was written for, muskets, one shot pistols, etc., you wouldn't have this problem at all.The big pharma lobbies don't have millions of people behind it to call every congressperson and sway votes.
If someone in congress tries to vote anything anti-gun, the NRA mobilizes. They are so effective because they don't just use money. I mean, nobody has a "big pharma" sticker in the back of their pickup truck.
The NRA doesn't just sway people, they work to shoot down ANY discussion on the topic and put forward tons of laws for gun owners.
What cheeses people off is that we get shot down the moment we try to talk about the issue. Meanwhile, Trump can set aside the 1st amendment anytime it suits him in the interests of "safety".

I on the other hand am grateful, grateful that I live in a country that is not controlled by emotion, well we'll see in a couple years. Bad things happen and the dead or not a reason to revoke one's Rights and Freedoms. Hell if that was the case after a few drunk drivers no one would have a car, after a few overdoses no one would have pain medication, after a few drownings no one would have a pool at their home.Hey, I don't live in your country and as much as I respect it, I'm glad I don't. I don't want to live anywhere that thinks it's ok to change nothing after nearly 30 children are murdered.
You ever think of adopting? This gives you the opportunity to not bring someone in the world that you hold in to stain, but to help out those less fortunate who are already in the world.Unbelievable stuff. About a month ago i was thinking, how has there not been a mass shooting on this scale for awhile. Seems like we get one every 3-6 months now. Then this happens, a record breaker. So sad.
When people used to ask me if i wanted to have to kids i said yeah, eventually. I don't have any kids and if i never do i won't feel bad about it. What's the point in this world today? This isn't a world that i'd be proud of growing up in, unlike the 90's which were amazing.

You are factually incorrect and are spreading misinformation and lies.If you go back to when the 2nd amendment was written, and use the guns the 2nd amendment was written for, muskets, one shot pistols, etc., you wouldn't have this problem at all.
pretzel logic.I on the other hand am grateful, grateful that I live in a country that is not controlled by emotion, well we'll see in a couple years.

Muskets were still around and the guns, owned by the majority of the public, were one shot guns. I've proven you wrong multiple times in the past on this subject. You've been wrong every single time.You are factually incorrect and are spreading misinformation and lies.
Bump fire stocks in Surefire magazines. Funny part is, I've never seen a Surefire magazine work through the entire course of a magazine dump. They are overpriced and unreliable in my opinionYou are wrong about that.

That's still giving it way too much credit.pretzel logic.
lol comparing any of these to mass murderI on the other hand am grateful, grateful that I live in a country that is not controlled by emotion, well we'll see in a couple years.

So again your argument is moot, it is not the NRA, it is not the gun lobby. Objective information show that they are for less powerful in Congress than others. Your problem is with people, people who value their rights and their freedoms. These people vote, sorry that we live in a constitutional republic that allows them to abide by these rules. If people don't like the Constitution enough of them should get together ( 2/3 ) in order to change that.
It's about optics. While it may look like they spend very little for a particular candidate (however they spent 30 mil on Trump last year), they are a top contributor for ad and grass roots campaigns against democrats. 37 million in 2016 to be exact.Yet another myth, the NRA barely gives to those in Congress, compared to other lobbying groups, they don't control Congress they couldn't even rent them for the lousy 3 million they give a year. And that was in a presidential election year.

Yes.Wait so you're saying this guys didn't break a single law (re: the guns/mods/ammo) until he started shooting his guns at people?
That's honestly quite troubling. There's a fundamental necessity for many things that can be used as weapons, which is why they are regulated but not outright banned. But what is the fundamental necessity for a civilian to own a freaking assault rifle (let alone dozens of rifles) that can mow down hundreds of people?Yes.
