[Trump Shooting] Suspect was registered as Republican voter, state records show
abcnews.go.com
Thomas Matthew Crooks, the suspectin Saturday’s shooting, was registered as a Republican voter, according to Pennsylvania records.
Already the republicans are dismissing his voter registration as meaningless. Here comes the “mental illness” angle.
Edit: apparently it’s not uncommon to register with the party you oppose in PA. This is going to be a fun ride.

Than?
Go on, you started out so strong.
It IS more accurate and shoots faster than a gun that's less accurate and shoots slower.
Beyond that, you haven't said anything about it, and you've not only just clearly shown you can't be objective when talking about them, you've given just... So much bullshit and called it "information"
Bullets going faster doesn't mean more damage, or more accuracy. It can mean more penetration into things, but that's not a given.
It has never been banned in any meaningful way country-wide
It has been the front and center firearm of every shooters arsenal on the news whether it was used in the shooting or not, specifically because it cosmetically looks like a military rifle. In fact the most common used things aren't even rifles, but handguns.
Functionally it's no different than several other firearms, some of which even shoot the exact same round, but nobody focuses on those because they look like a hunting rifle.
This country needs mountains of reform, including tons of changes to gun control, but what you are doing is not helping that goal in any way.
Be better.
