I get that the AR-15 makes people feel like Rambo and that is why we see them in mass shootings (nobody mass murdered like Rambo), but I also get that calling for a ban is kind of ridiculous. Speeding kills people every day and we are not banning sexy fast looking cars.
Mass shootings and overall gun violence in America are almost 2 separate issues. Yes they are both gun related, but when it comes to overall gun violence and death in America it is hand guns that are the real weapon of choice. Between comprehensive background checks and hand gun bans there would be no need for assault rifle bans. Of course then how does a woman with high anxiety get a gun that fits in her purse? Merica!
