Nearly every single mass shooting in recent times has been used with assault weapons. 13 teenagers killed at Columbine with assault weapons, 26 people were killed at Sandy Hook, 20 of them being children. FOURTY NINE people were killed at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando. All with assault weapons.
Guns do not kill people. People kill people. We should not limit the guns but enforce harsher stances on how to obtain the weapons. We should do tougher background checks, physiological checks, and more depth and training. We can limit the amount that is produces in the United States but people will still want guns and taking them away will bring more trouble than good. Again, we should make it a lot harder for people to obtain the weapons and have plans in place for the control on how many can be given to one person.

Assault weapons are made to kill, however, they are cool AF and my constitutional right. They should have stricter regulations on how easily people may attain them, like background checks, mental health checks, safety courses and training, etc.

Assault weapons were made for self defense but have been abused. I do agree that there should be stricter regulations on how people attain them and background checks are necessary, but I feel that people like teachers, should be allowed to attain a gun due to the fact that there has recently been school shootings and since millions of parents are putting their children's life in the hands of staff members of a school. I feel that school staff should rightfully be allowed to possess a gun for the safety of the children. It is not fair that we should not be allowed to own a gun because someone shot an innocent person who had no weapon to defend themselves with.

Assault weapons should be banned from civilian use. Restrictions are not enough. Too many people have died in mass shooting because of these particular weapons.
Children in schools have to practice active shooter lock down drills, police presence has increased on campuses as well.
Our children have the right to go to school without worrying about a mass shooting.

I agree with the last part of your statement, however in what world is having access to weapons of war similar to those found in purple Fortnite chests "cool AF"? Tell that to the thousands of people every year who lose family and friends every year. Tell that to the victims of Sandy Hook. I believe that it's important to analyze the context and actual meanings of all of the amendments to the constitution. When the constitution was originally penned, it's clear that the founding fathers wished to provide a legal way for citizens to overthrow the government in the case of… Read more
Assault weapons are used in many crimes and a restriction should be placed on them and the transportation of them. I've heard of a train in Chicago that was stopped on the tracks carrying assault weapons. People hijacked the train and took the weapons to distribute onto the streets.

I am a hunter and in order to practice I need to purchase shotgun shells. the shells being used at the range are target rounds that spread out and lose momentum after about 100 feet. they are meant for breaking clay discs. nobody is going to use low power ammunition if they actually wish to harm people.

“The power of the sword, say the minority..., is in the hands of Congress. My friends and countrymen, it is not so, for the powers of the sword are in the hands of the yeomanry of America from sixteen to sixty. The militia of these free commonwealths, entitled and accustomed to their arms, when compared with any possible army, must be tremendous and irresistible. Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom. Congress has no power to disarm the militia. Their swords and every terrible implement of the soldier… Read more
