Thoughts and Prayers Break Out in Birmingham, Alabama

At least 4 dead and many wounded. The guns were unharmed and escaped to kill another day. It was the 403rd mass shooting in the US so far this year, with many more to come.

Thoughts and prayers. Seems as if one of the deceased was the intended party, but the use of "switches", devices that turn weapons into full-automatic mode, turned it into a war zone.

@Northwest Those " switches" are already illegal and have been illegal for years! So, if another law is passed making them illegal, that will somehow help?

Do you have canned responses that you post regardless of comment? Where am I discussing laws? Switches are considered illegal by the ATF.
