Total numbers have nothing to do with it.
Mass shooters and psychopaths love assault style rifles and that's more than enough reason to ban them.
Just because a bunch of selfish, right-wing, macho idiot redneck gun-goobers, barrel-strokers and trigger-lickers don't like the idea of being told which guns they can and can't own with zero regard for putting public safety over and above their own selfish wants, doesn't mean jack shit.
When the govt says give them up, you'll give them up.
And that day is coming.
sadly you are wrong again you don't even know the difference between a assault rifle and a rifle.
How does a rifle classify as a 'assault' rifle?
An assault rifle , as opposed to the extremely flimsy and stupid US political term " assault weapon" is defined as a selective-fire rifle that fires an intermediate cartridge. It differs from a battle rifle which fores a full sized cartridge, and from a submachine gun that fires a pistol cartridge
A ar 15 is not selective fire .
youto have very limited knowledge of fire arms and how people die in America and I do not mean that as a insult to you just my opinion.
just think you could save over 1500 more lives a year by banning knifes then ar 15s what about clubs I wonder , figures showed that 467 people were killed with “blunt objects why thats several times as many also.
how many are killed with cars ,37,461 people were killed in 34,436 motor vehicle crashes, an average of 102 per day. well thats thousand of times more people killed.
banning ar 15s would have little to no affect on people being killed in mass killings , people who were going to commit such acts would just fine another way .
you want to punish millions of gun owners why are law abiding citizens who have broken no laws .
And do you have any clue how many semi auto rifles there are in the states ? I don't know myself to honest but the numbers would run into at least 150 million . there are about 386 million guns total in the usa.
Guns are not the issue here but people are.
