        There is no question, that the AR-15 & sig sauer, are the weapon of choice for these perpetrators of these massacres & slaughter. Enough is enough !!

        Didn’t we already do this back in the 90’s? And didn’t the Columbine shooting happened while the assault weapons ban was in affect? So we should do the sam thing over and over again and expect different results?? Hmm perhaps we try something different. Security like courthouses?

        The ban did reduce mass shooting casualties. The data is messy because they are rare events, but the ban was in effect long enough and we since had enough time without the ban to determine.

        Right, since the ban expired gun crime has been dropping over the last two decades..

        I agree with all of what he said. Unfortunately without also removing the est. 8.5-15M AR-15 already in circulation in the US any type of ban is moot. Just like automatic weapons, they never should be owned by civilians.
