Problem with a 9mm round is that they can 'travel' meaning
they go through one body and go through another and etc.
That was the argument years ago in NY when cops were wanting
9 millies instead of those .38s. .38 slug would knock a man down but
not always kill him. I've seen men hit with a .38 round, get up and
kick someone's ass or draw their own gun.
9mm rounds richochet too. The gunman had the element of surprise.
He may have shot most of his victims in the back. Not face to face
to see them suffer.
When people are that bunched up, a gunman with an automatic can
let off a clip in a matter of seconds. One's first instinct is to run or
hit the dirt.
Let's say he had 9 in the clip and 1 round chambered. That clip is
emptied in like 3 seconds. That's the problem with automatics.
You spend all day loading clips, go to the target range and in
a matter of a few minutes you've emptied the clips and are back
to loading them fuckers again.
This killer had a choice range of control. What his true motives
are will be the stuff that talk shows are made of.
