Aren't all firearms capable of that ? Aren't all forms of transportation for that matter ? Thousands more die in automotive accidents a year. So what is your point ? Just say it. You would like all firearms banned.

Default Milennials: The Generation which might Make Gun Control a Reality

Right, wrong or otherwise, Milennials might be the ones to make some measure of Gun Control a reality once they're old enough to vote, boycott, and lobby. It would be fair to say their generation has witnessed enough of these tragedies over the short span of their lives.

More like 'weapons of war' control.

Human lives are more important than a hobby for gunlovers.

Rather than a long laundry list of various weapons, lump them all together, then sort out the ones having the characteristics of those that should be banned (those capable of efficiently killing large numbers of people quickly).

Wow, the 20,000 or so odd current firearm laws aren't enough? How about that generation quit turning out blood thirsty killers?

The students who are in high school (and even college now, depending on definition) are no longer Milennials - - they are Generation Z.

I just think people like blaming Milennials for things - - it rolls off the tongue better.

Using those criteria then, a total ban is what you're after.
