I wonder which party they contribute to.
If they are guns being used to silence someone with a different opinion/ definitely dem votes.

Statistically, it's rare.  It's like cutting out creamer in your coffee while you're on a diet but having two slices of cheesecake and ice cream for lunch.

And of course, pistols can be used to kill groups of people, the difference is range.
I'll tell the dead people that statistically, their deaths were rare.

Usually, logical people when viewing a problem attempt to formulate solutions for the larger aspects of the problem first, and focus there rather than on the tiny aspects of the problem.  Since the discussion is gun violence in Chicago, rifles simply are not the weapon of choice by the shooters, not even remotely close.

Well rifles are for killing groups of people.  Pistols are just for killing 1-2 nearby innocents.
Tell that to the 33 people murdered on the campus of Virginia Tech a few years back. 

Guns have never killed anyone. People using guns kill other people, just as cars don't kill people. But there are many that die in car accidents every year.

Not unless you have an agenda.

My guns have yet to harm anyone that I am aware of. However, my S&W .38 that was handed down from my grandfather, may have been used in self defense long prior to my ownership.

The main differences between a rifle and a pistol is that:

1.  Rifles are more expensive.
2.  They are nearly impossible to carry covertly.
3.  They are more accurate at longer ranges (say over 30 yards).
4.  They generally produce high muzzle velocities with the same type of cartridge.

If your shooting "technique" is "spray and pray", the accuracy piece is largely irrelevant of course.

If I were looking to kill and wound a lot of people at close range, I'd probably start with a shotgun (presuming I can get a shotgun into the venue) to create panic and then go to pistols with 15+ round mags.

Why don't you tell the many more people that are going to be dead or in jail because because they lost everything while the government closed down their businesses while giving themselves raises and selling off the stocks with insider knowledge.And of course you toughening it out on the governments tit
