    Improving background checks is a start, but there's so much more Congress can and should do. Let's get serious about saving lives by banning assault rifles, conducting CDC research, and more.https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-guns/congress-to-focus-on-background-checks-after-florida-massacre-idUSKCN1GB0K8 …

        More murders are committed by hand guns that assault rifles. Hell knives kill more people. But banning anything just makes a black market for that item. (Drugs) If your serious about saving lives let's ban cars cause people drive dunk and kill!

        Do you know what an assault rifle is? Here a picture of a 1967 hunting rifle. Do you consider this an assault rifle?pic.twitter.com/lzxbTEhPue

        There's no such thing as an 'assault' rifle. Oh we know, you just want a moniker you attach anything you want to it. We had a 10 year ban that did nothing. But a similar ban now will guarantee to get you de-elected next time around. It's *NOT* the gun!!

        Make it so people have to take a firearms safety class...8 hours on a Saturday. It would create jobs.

        Let’s start by requiring AR-15 and Kolashnikov derivatives, as well as similar military style rifles, to be transferred under the same requirements as handguns. 21 years old to buy, criminal background check on Federal/State/Local police levels, and mental evaluation.

        While I agree that there is no PRACTICAL reason to have an AR-15 it will be close to impossible to ban it's ownership by the 98+% who own one responsibly
