After Parkland school shooting, hundreds attend nearby gun show in Miami
by Matthew Vann

MIAMI — Hundreds gathered at the fairgrounds here for a major gun show held just three days after the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, less than 50 miles north. Many came to the 500-booth expo with a renewed desire to protect themselves.

The event, sponsored by Florida Gun Shows, is within driving distance from Parkland, where 17 students and staff were killed on Wednesday when former student Nikolas Cruz allegedly opened fire with AR-15 semi-automatic rifle.



Gun show participant: AR-15 is over-regulated 1:25

The popularity of the AR continues to grow, with good cause.

What’s good about it? The AR 15 is still an Military Assault weapon.

The AR is not a military assault weapon. It’s a customizable sporting rifle platform used for target shooting and hunting. For my own purpose I have it configured in 300 Blackout for shooting custom handloads at subsonic velocity.

"There is absolutely zero need for an assault rifle in this country and to sell that weapon to any mental health person, now that should be apart of that fix.

In Florida you can't be a hand gun until you are 21 years old but for some strange reason in Florida law at 18, a kid can buy a Military style Assault weapon, if he has a concealed weapons license, that person can walk out of the door in 15 to 30 minute.

In the case of Nikolas Cruz at 18 he waited three days to complete his purchase of a AR 15 Military style Assault weapon and went on to kill 17 children. That is a gun reform law I would like to see passed into LAW.

Only the rich can afford an assault rifle in this country. As far as the AR you won’t have any success banning it. Nor will your fake concern win you the votes you hope for in 2018.

Steve, are you trying to compare yourself with the rich, well get over that, the rich don't care about you because you are not in that arena. The best that you can do for them is to relinquish your freedoms.

I’m talking about the definition of “assault rifle”. If you want an M16 you’ll need about $50,000 to get one. Since you don’t know what an assault rifle is let me educate you.

The U.S. Army defines assault rifles as "short, compact, selective-fire weapons that fire a cartridge intermediate in power between submachine gun and rifle cartridges."[16] In a strict definition, a firearm must have at least the following characteristics to be considered an assault rifle:[2][3][4]

It must be capable of selective fire.
It must have an intermediate-power cartridge: more power than a pistol but less than a standard rifle or battle rifle, such as the 7.92×33mm Kurz, the 7.62x39mm and the 5.56x45mm NATO.
Its ammunition must be supplied from a detachable box magazine.[5]
It must have an effective range of at least 300 metres (330 yards).
Rifles that meet most of these criteria, but not all, are technically not assault rifles, despite frequently being called such.

For example:

Select-fire M2 Carbines are not assault rifles; their effective range is only 200 yards.[17]
Select-fire rifles such as the FN FAL battle rifle are not assault rifles; they fire full-powered rifle cartridges.
Semi-automatic-only rifles like the Colt AR-15 are not assault rifles; they do not have select-fire capabilities.
Semi-automatic-only rifles with fixed magazines like the SKS are not assault rifles; they do not have detachable box magazines and are not capable of automatic fire.

You did not say that I did not know what a M16 is? See that is your problem right their Steve, You are setting behind your computer, trying your best to use deception to the issues of this blog. Let me redirect you back to the subject because I am not the subject of this blog.

Now Steve, just for your information, I owned a M16 during my term in the Vietnam War, which I depended on that weapon with my life, I am sure you knew that.

If you want an M16 you’ll need about $50,000 to get one. I don't know where you shop but you can get on the internet and buy a M16 for under $1.600.00 FNH USA FN15 M16 20" MILITARY COLLECTOR 5.56 36320 https://www.gunbroker.com/item/742832519 so, you can STOP THAT LIE RIGHT NOW STEVE!!!

Here Steven, take a look how cheep it is for a 18 year old kid will spend for a AR15 https://www.gunbroker.com/All/search?Keywo...

That is a shame that you told that lie Steve, WHY? The best thing you can do is to talk about yourself, to build up your creditability up around here because you have dropped to a all time low.

Steve, which one of these video reports did you see? Days after school shooting in Parkland, Florida, a gun show in Miami

or

Gun show participant: AR-15 is over-regulated?

I watched both these videos Ron. The gun you referenced isn’t select fire. It’s not an M16, try again.

Directly from the front lines to your collection, the FN 15® Military Collector Series M16 is a military replica rifle made to FN’s exacting specifications. The semi-automatic rifle is chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO and features a 20-inch, 1:7″ RH, button-broached, and chrome-lined barrel. The UID-labeled lower receiver is equipped with an ambidextrous selector switch, just like its select-fire big brother.

Hey you dumb as, what about that black man and women who volunteered to the Armed Forces because they believed in Freedom, Justices and The American Way of life.

I see that you made no mention of that Black American who served with the conviction at this country despite is faults is still the best country in the world to live, to work and to raise your family.

The Black Service personal is not BOZO's bot HEROES for fighting for your right to write this filth on the internet.

Did you see this video report Robert or are you too scary still to use the full potential of your computer, yet?

They want the government to “do something”. They always want the government to do something, rather than take action themselves.

I’ve been searching all morning to find out why Joe Biden introduced the gun free school zones act of 1990. This information is nowhere to be found. Why do you think that is Ron?

Let us deal with the information we do have right in front of you in this blog Steve.

These young people weren’t even alive when Joe Biden introduced the bill that has made our schools killing fields. Now this same Biden is propagandizing them, that the NRA is the evil gun lobby and all they need to do is ban the AR. These young people are being used by political opportunists like yourself, completely unaware of your total disregard for their lives and security.

Ron’s confession:

After Florida School Shooting, Russian ‘Bot’ Army Pounced

Tuesday, February 20th 2018 at 12:29PM
Steve Williams
If you call me a Russian bot then, why can't you two boys stay on the topic of the blog?

Both of you guys, will not answer a direct question.

Both of you guys try to misdirect the flow of a blog with unrelated topics

And for as long as you guys been on Black In America, both you guys are not on any Most Popular Bloggers because bots only follow their programing.

By the way Boy's I got proof that I am not a bot I am on the Most Popular Bloggers list, WOW!!!!
