How does that stop this from happening again with any of the dozens of different styles of semiautomatic rifles?

Banning AR15's does nothing except change which style of semi auto rifle is the most popular

The Clinton era ban didn't ban AR15's, they were readily sold during that time. All that ban did was ban them from having things like adjustable stocks, muzzle brakes, or bayonet attachment points. Similar to the versions sold in states that still have state level assault weapons bans


Please correct me it I'm wrong, but I don't think that taking adjustable stocks or bayonets back away will prevent shootings like this. In fact Sandy Hook was done with a ban compliant AR15

The AWB banned an entire list of assault weapons in addition to the assorted paraphernalia meant to boost kill totals. The next ban should simply add the AR-15 to the list. Fact is mass shootings were down duiring the ban period and rose again after it was lifted.

Correlation is not causation.

Sometimes it is, like in this case.

Source?

Nearly everytging credible, including by the GAO, have concluded that the AWB had such a small impact on gun deaths that it couldn’t even be measured.

A new AWB won’t work and will never pass.

It’s incredibly modular and customizable, has low recoil, handles lots of calibers (for hunting, home defense, competition shooting), is much easier to use than something like a shotgun (so good for disabled persons, such as a veteran I know who uses one to protect his home). But you’ve decided that they’re evil, or “machine guns,” or only used by “sucky hunters,” and have no legitimate purpose. So I’m not going to say anything else, because you have your opinion about them. So do the millions of normal Americans who own them.

Ps: they’re not going anywhere, so focus on something else.

My kids’ right to life trumps your right to own a specific kind of weapon. There are plenty of other types of guns that aren’t as mass-murder-worthy out there for you to satisfy your cravings with.

My guns have nothing to do with you or your kids. And they’re not going anywhere.

Sure they do. And they have to do with the 17+ people slaughtered this week. You have blood on your hands. It is on you.

Nope! You sure sound dumb.

I’m not the gullible fool who eats up all of the crap that the NRA shells out.

Ooh good one.
