How can anyone defend this? A 15 year old had access to an assault rifle, grabbed it and shot a man multiple times!!! What the hell is wrong with you people!?

Yep, and if he didnt. He could be killed or robbed. And I dont even want to imagine what could have happened to his sister. If someone breaks in your house, you do whatever you need to.
-
Oh, totally. If I caught someone robbing my house I wouldn't run or confront him, I would get the nearest sharp object (anything would do, a knife, a pair of scissors, a pencil), ninja my way close to him and threaten hurting his leg (if he was armed I would stab him immediately). (So much for civilized behavior, huh?) But imagine what would happen if the kid grabbed the gun in a fit of rage and went to his school... Well, I guess you don't have to imagine too much, because it seems that's more and more frequent in the USA now.

You wouldnt defend your property and family? Sounds smart. Typical liberal.

AR-15=/=assault rifle

Semantics, semantics. It shoots bullets; it's designed to kill; it has no place in a civilized country. Stuff like this is seriously making me consider NOT emigrate to the USA, god dammit.

Oh and I forgot to add pistols and revolvers. I'm an American! What are you?
-
I'm a citizen of the world.

Guns are used for hunting and sports shooting which are popular pastimes in the US. In Alaska guns are a necessity considering their isolation. The kid protected his little sister from a home invader, honestly I don't see anything wrong with that. Also why should law abiding citizens be punished for the actions of a few nutjobs with a gun?
-
Come on over, I'll take you shooting. Maybe I can change your mind.

Give me a Plasma Rifle and then we can talk.

It's not semantics, you claimed he had an assault rifle when that's simply not true.
-
What firearm worth 10s of thousands of dollars was used?
-
A firearm that most likely had a 800$ pricetag
-
That wouldn't be an assault rifle. Those tend to be on the low price and quality side, $6k.
