WTH did I just read here? Who cares what the illiterate, urban dwellers want. We didn't create their problems. Most of the inner core, urban moron's problems were created from themselves. Single Moms in big Cities create gang bangers that create a problem. The rest of us don't.

How about deal with the single Mom, urban center issue and leave law abiding Americans out of it.

A VERY small amount of people are killed by assault weapons each year.

Gun Facts | Gun Control Facts Concerning Assault Weapons


But its not the number of people killed by assault weapons, its who is killed by assault weapons. When insane people walk into schools or movie theaters and kill large numbers of people (they typically use assault weapons.)

And what republicans don't understand is "Nearly every major reform to U.S. gun laws has come on the heels of a mass shooting. From Columbine to John F. Kennedy, America's most terrifying shootings have been the catalysts for the country's most sweeping reforms."

Shootings that Shaped Gun Control - ABC News


But after mass shootings the republicans in Washington just say "there will be no new gun control measures passed", and then individual states are forced to pass their own gun laws (to where certain states are headed to European-like gun regulations.)

The republicans refuse to address those issues as well.

Republicans oppose Planned Parenthood that stops inner city women from having kids.

Republicans oppose high min wages and large Earned Income Tax credits that would stop some people from resorting to crime.

Republicans oppose stimulus plans to improve the inner cities.

And republicans refuse to pass laws that would bring millions of outsourced jobs back to America, and then give inner city people the opportunity to have a high paying job instead of a life of crime.

Chad3, you went on a huge anti-republican tangent instead of addressing the questions, so I'll ask again:
Since we've established that more gun laws don't reduce gun violence (per the CA and AZ example), what would?

You should read your own source.

"“Assault weapon” is an invented term. In the firearm lexicon, there is no such thing as an “assault weapon."

How someone be killed with a "weapon" that does NOT exist?

But its not the number of people killed by assault weapons, its who is killed by assault weapons.

And you keep repeating the same thing over and over

"When insane people walk into schools or movie theaters and kill large numbers of people (they typically use assault weapons.)

The more I read your post, the more I laugh.

EVERYTHING you claim is debunked in your your own source.

"
Myth: Assault weapons are used in mass public shootings Fact: A decade long study, covering 84 mass public shootings, found that pistols were used 60% of the time. Rifles were used 27%. But that isalltypes of rifles.

The last I checked 27% IS not "they typically use assault weapons.)" Plus the 27% is ALL rifles.

We all mow your dem party affiliation so save us false claim that you care about the repubs but, you attempt to blame them for not addressing the problem,

The PROBLEM describe by 1 AngryTaxPayer is BECAUSE MOST OF THESE URBAN AREA ARE CONTROLLED BY DEMS.

There is NOTHING the repubs in those areas CAN DO.

For ONCE in your life, accept the responsibility of your own (party) actions and quit ALWAYS trying to bale someone else.

(It is no wonder your idol, Obama, does it ALL the time. He KNOWS that is how MOST dem operate).

I am asking again. Could you at least be honest and sincere? You keep posting lies after lies. I don't see how that can be helpful.

Do you intentionally want to lie or can't tell they are lies even after we debunk them?
