        All mass shooters are law abiding until they suddenly aren’t

        Has there ever been a situation in the US where someone defended themselves against harm with an AR-15?

        Uh-huh. Just as it should be? Nikolas Cruz appeared to be a "law abiding citizen" and look at the carnage he wrought.

        Not saying that at all. The gun is not the problem. The man is. "Mindset behind the trigger" was bad intentions. Many have AR 15 type weapons...no problems at all.

        Easier than renting a car. Easier than applying for college. Easier than getting cable set up. #GunReform

        Um what??? I don't remember cable or car rental companies ever running a background check on me and sending whatever application I had to fill out to the state police. Are you just a #snowflake or a DNC paid troll?

        If you were a gun shop owner, why would you still sell the AR-15? Do the decent thing and take it off the shelves!
