LAURA INGRAHAM (HOST): Mark, finally on this, the AR-15 looks like -- was his weapon of choice. That was involved in the San Bernardino shooting, Sandy Hook, the Pulse nightclub, and so you already see the push about re-examining the AR-15. Tell us a little bit about that weapon, 40 percent of Floridians have firearms, AR-15, one of the most popular firearms in the United States, but that clearly is being targeted by the anti-gun folks tonight.



MARK FUHRMAN: Well, Laura, it's considered -- it's called the M4 platform and it's based on the AR-15, and yes, there's a lot of them, and most of them are used legally.



If a suspect chooses that weapon and you take that weapon away, they've been making weapons since about 1908 that are automatic fired weapons that can, you know, deliver just as much fire power and almost as fast as an AR-15.



And in the hands of a competent person, you don't even need that. You need something that is very -- almost an antique weapon, to do the same amount of damage.



So, it's in the hands of a skilled person. An AR-15 makes up for that a little bit, but it is not the reason that this occurred. The reason that this occurred is not only a mental illness, it's security, it's not -- not having a hardened target, and actually not anybody paying attention to all the flags.
