    “We have to do more to stop gun violence; it’s ripping our communities apart — ripping the soul of this nation,” Biden said.

    Currently, there are at least 20,000,000 AR15s in the US; every day, more are manufactured and sold.
    Beyond he AR15, there are likely many millions of other 'assault weapons'; every day, more are manufactured and sold

    An exceptionally simple question for those among you who support a ban on the manufacture and sale on 'assault weapons':
    Give the huge number of 'assault weapons' already available to the public, how will a ban on the sale and manufacture of 'assault weapons' have any meaningful effect of the number of mass shootings?

    we all know that controlling gun violence has nothing to do with schemes the anti gun left push

    Please define "assault weapon"... 50 states... 50 different definitions. And the military has more definitions.

    40+ states have no definition of 'assault weapon'
    Thus, they do not exist on those states.

    When Democrats tell you they don't want to ban guns, they are lying to you.

    If they manage to ban so called assault rifles, it would just be a matter of time and enough mass shootings with semi-automatic handguns, then they will come for those next.

    That is obvious to anyone.

    since crime control is not what motivates democrat gun banners, statistics concerning crime is worthless dealing with their real motivations. true, when they erect a facade of crime control, those pre textual loads of excrement are easily squashed with facts. But you will never get a leftwing operative to back down on their gun banning schemes by proving to them that what they propose won't stop crime
