        Ummm. Maybe know and start with knowing what the definition of an assault is. An AR15 is a semi automatic gun. It amazes me that so many people don’t know. Why didn’t we have these issues 20+ years ago? Maybe it’s social media driving people over the edge. Different times.

        “Definitions” would stop mass shootings? B.S.! You are part of the problem not part of the solution

        Regulate guns like cars: -Mandatory training -Skills test -Written test -License and registration (yearly) -Liability insurance And complete all BEFORE taking gun home. Teens do this to get cars, why can't adults do the same to get guns?

        Sorry, but conscience can not be trained. This is the root cause of this issue

        No, the root cause of this issue is easy access to guns. If it weren’t, there would be mass shootings in every other populated nation, and there aren’t.

        Well done. Hit them where they feel it. America needs more donors to take this stance

        While I’m pleased that Mr. Hoffman has taken this position, it’s a sad reminder that the people in the US who are controlling what laws get passed are the few mega-rich donors who control politicians. This is no way to run a democracy. #GunLawsNOW #WhyILeftTheGOP #EnoughIsEnough

        Thank you, sir!! No reason on this planet that any civilian should own an assault weapon. Thank you for your support on this very, very serious problem. @realDonaldTrump

        Can he demand a refund from those he donated to, and call for their resignation? Because they were all bad investments and I feel he has a right to rescind all his funds.

        It would be better if you didn't write any checks to the GOP. Period. But no guns is a start for GOP financial support.

        Ban all semiautomatic weapons, not just AR-15. Make it a felony to possess one once amnesty collection period is over. Background checks on every purchase. Take written and performance test (like we do with cars). Insure every weapon. #PolicyandAction #NoMoreThoughtsandPrayers
