Reply To: Is there any way to prevent mass shootings????

I pointed to statistics of the most recent attempt to register guns and that was five percent compliance. Just to register people ignored the law and risk felony conviction.
That was just to register, you are talking confiscation which by all measure of logic should result in far worse reaction.
I think my citing recent case history is far more indicative of future events then your guess.
Which leads us to the question of why government should be allowed to turn law abiding citizens into felons on such a mass scale?
In addition you have already admitted that there is no such thing as an AW. The only reason people support AW band is because they have no clue that AW is a made up term that applies to some cosmetic features of semi automatic rifles.
There is no logic to an AW ban when there are numerous legal equivalents.
Hashkafically I’ve also pointed out (after the same discussion after Vegas) that as frum Jews we believe people die from G-D, if these 14 hadn’t been killed by a gun they would have died in a bus accident on a school trip. So for politics we should turn millions of citizens into felons?
