I suppose you also agree that we need to stop bombing foreign countries and killing innocent children as well? Or are their lives not as important to you because they are not American?
Good question. yes, I believe we should stop doing those things too.
By banning ownership of assault weapons, and prohibiting pistol ammo, it would make it a lot tougher for those intent on mass slaughter to use a gun to do it.

No it wouldn't, it just creates a black market..... just like alcohol once did, illegal drugs have, gambling once did etc.
At least with the things legal, we can make sure that the things have things like safety mechanisms and other safety features
When it goes to the black market, they can do anything they want
You would just be keeping law abiding citizens from having them, not the huge number of bad people out there
In other words, you have nothing intelligent to say. Typical Liberal, relies on human tragedy to sink his or her fangs into to push an agenda while normal caring people mourn and respect the victims
Thanks for proving what I said to be true.... I love it when the other one helps my point
By the way, who is this "we"? You are the only one being ignorant on this thread.....
"Human tragedy" created a national Amber Alert system and Megan's Law. For starters.

People would be far more reluctant to deal on the black market with mandatory ten year prison terms waiting for them. Besides, the gun owners all declare themselves to be law-abiding...so why would they not respect and comply with any new gun control legislation? Hmmmm?
SCOTUS can revisit issues. It happens all the time.
Get back to me when that happens regarding this issue.
