According to the police reports, the guy had a history of mental illness and a history with the law. Mostly for beating his wives or girlfriends. The only ones killed were the Fireman who left behind a wife and five kids and the gunman.

The guy had no motive at all. Z06 Rocket, you make a funny point because of the fact that right besides the Wendy's, there is a huge billboard advertising the "Gun Show" this weekend at the So. Fla Fairgrounds here in West Palm. The news stations always seemed to show the Wendy's from this particular angle which always displayed the Gun Show billboard. I've already argued this with people around the watercooler that for every argument you make for strict gun control, you can make an equally strong(er) argument why responsible people should have more accessibility to them.

Assume this guy didn't have a gun. What is to stop him from doing the horrible act with a handgrenade? A machete? A baseball bat? A homemade explosive? Maybe he doesn't shoot six people including himself (7), maybe he only happens to kill himself and the fireman and injure four. Now, if other people around him had guns, rather then shooting six he shoots two before someone else caps his a$s. We could go in circles all day long.

Shadow, you are so right. A 9mil of any kind is not a fully automatic weapon and the only one that can be easily worked to be one is a TEC-9 and you don't see too many anymore considering they are worse then an M-16.
