i have been sad to see so many groups and individuals say that the cause of these events are the mental status of the shooters.
i have looked over the backgrounds of these shooters, and few had medically identified mental health issues.
it is too easy to think that people shoot or kill other people because they are mentally ill.. actually, many or most people with real mental illnesses are most likely to be the victims of others.. i have been a volunteer with the organization called nami (national alliance of mental lillness) for 25 years now.
Trying to spin the facts doesn't defer the matter regarding the sale of assault type rifles in the US or why you cant buy or own one in many countries today.
Why cant people buy or own one in many countries today? Because those countries have different laws than we do. There are lots of things that are legal in the US that aren’t legal in other countries. Like blasphemy.

Why has the AR-15 been the gun of choice for human massacres by a single assailant?
First of all, It’s not. The gun of choice is handguns. AR-15 stories get more clicks, though, so those are the ones hyped up by the media. The vast majority of “mass shootings” as defined by the Gun Violence Archive use handguns.
Second of all, it’s the number one selling rifle style in America. It’s very popular. Using your perception of it as being a “gun of choice” is like saying that “lead is the bullet of choice”.

There are guns designed for hunting humans in a war type scenario/application and there are rifles used for and designed for hunting wildlife.
Why do you keep repeating this lie?
All guns were designed as first and foremost weapons of war.
Please name one single gun design that did not start as a weapon of war.

Hunting rifles which are designed for that specific purpose usually have long extended barrels for accuracy and usually have a powerful scope to see at a long distance.
Check out this hunting rifle, Fink.

They usually dont have large capacity cartridges that you can attach as well.
Wrong. The musket was a weapon of war and it’s barrel was a lot longer than modern hunting rifles.
Modern scopes on hunting rifles have their roots in the military.
The first weapons to have a magazine to hold extra ammunition was the Henry Repeating Lever-action rifle, a popular rifle with many hunters.
Who do you think you’re talking to?
Im talking to someone that doesn’t know anything accurate about firearms, yet thinks they have the right to take mine away and impose their morality on me like a JW.

Ar-15 or Ak-47 etc. rifles are not made by design originally for hunting wildlife.
Neither is any other gun design. What’s your point in saying that? All gun designs are used in war. The “weapons of war” argument is bullshit.
Every gun design in existence began as a weapon of war.

Yea and cuz they are exactly like other rifles is exactly why they are the PREFERRED weapon for mass shooters
They’re also the most popular gun in the nation.
And if you do your research, most mass shootings actually occur with pistols.
The media doesn’t like covering those, though.

The US has 300 MILLION people.
Even if you use the sketchy numbers from "gun violence archive", mass shootings accounted for 371 deaths in 2018.
That's 0.000124% of the population.
Literally a one in a million chance.
I'll take those odds ANY day.
My kid has more of a chance of dying in an accident while riding his bike to school than he does in a mass shooting.
Be honest with yourselves. The only reason you people are so "afraid" of America and mass shootings is because of the propaganda and mainstream media kool-aid you're guzzling by the gallon on Social Media.
Just f-cking use logic!

Do you know that since 1968 more americans have been killed GUNS, than have died in ALL wars combined
Misleading. The number you're using includes suicides. You shouldn't count suicides when you're talking about murders.
would you stop buying nike products because you didn’t like their politics?
conversely, would you give business to a company because you liked their political stand on a matter?
would you stop watching an entertainer because you disagree with their political perspectives?
Conversely, would you give business to a company because you liked their political stand on a matter?I have often shopped somewhere not because I agree with the politics, but because the people boycotting the place are utter cnts.
