        There's not going to be a federal assault weapons ban.

        "Assault weapons" or "assault rifles" is nothing more than a buzz word used for those thast do not understand weapoons. Particularly the difference between select fire and semi auto. Aesthetics does not equal internal workings.

        The only thing anyone needs to know about the gun is that it has the ability to kill a lot of people in a short period of time and has become the weapon of choice for mass shooters. As a gun owner I am very well aware of what the gun is and it’s aesthetics.

        So the gun is the problem in your view? Not the individual actions of an individual? There were enough red flags for the FBI, Broward county sheriff's office and even though Cruz should have been Baker Act, they did nothing. But lets blame the tool and not the operator

        The individual combined with easy access to a gun that shouldn’t be available to the public is the problem. If there were mistakes made by the sheriffs department then that needs to be addressed as well.

        Every day there are mistakes being discovered. Between 39 visits by police, internet posting investigation by the fbi, officers not going inside to confront Cruz, Cruz himself calling PD after his mother died. Sheriff has ability to baker act and didnt.

        And to continue, thank the 1990 crime bill that banned weapons on campuses with resuulred in a target rich environment known as gun free zones

        Seeing how assault weapons are already illegal I'd say there's a pretty good chance for agreement.

        Don't understand why any civilian would need an AR15. Bullets travel 3 times the velocity of regular bullets & leave an exit wound the size of grapefruit.
