When you provide proof that the rounds fired at Sandy Hook were *not*
fired at a rate of *exactly* 1 round every 1.714 seconds, which was very
likely the case given that the so-called shooter was a known Assburger
who may well have been fixated on that number, Rainman that he was,
then we can take it as an average.

The original point of that post, which you completely failed to grasp,
was that this rate of fire had been trumpeted by a liberal blogger to
illustrate the danger posed to society by semi-auto "assault rifles,"
even though that pathetic rate was eclipsed by another famous so-called
shooter with a *bolt action* rifle in 1963.

(3) It is not difficult to fire two consecutive shots from a
Mannlicher-Carcano within 1.66 seconds, and to "point aim", if not
carefully "sight" it, on the target of each shot. Cornwell fired the rifle
twice in 1.2 seconds, and I fired it twice within 1.5 seconds. In both
cases the second shot missed, but was close to the silhouette. In fact,
my second shot only missed the silhouette by approximately 2". [4]
</quote>

Interestingly, in the same thread where you boasted of your idiotic
math failings included the following equally idiotic gem showing what
you think the rate of fire is for an AR-15 (based on something you read
about M-16 rate of fire, with zero actual knowledge of the subject,
as is the case with most things you post):

Message-ID: <D1A24EE6.4D65B%usenet@gallopinginsanity.com>
   [Snit]:
   "That comes to between 11.667 and 15.833 rounds per second."

And you actually *argued* this point.  LOL!  Can you imagine the blur
of a trigger finger moving that fast!  I would love to see that.
