Ban them. That will definitely help. ** -- moohoofus 08/15/2019 8:17PM

Nothing is going to prevent all gun violence. That's no reason not to -- hoolstoptheheels 08/15/2019 7:24PM

No one outside of Philly would have heard about this if not for the AR-15 -- 757 08/15/2019 7:20PM

Neither do bodyguards ** -- MasterRusty 08/15/2019 9:18PM

The gun itself should be banned, so yes gun control would prevent this -- WahooMatt05 08/15/2019 7:27PM

You’re assuming he wouldn’t have any one of many other semiautomatic rifles -- JMHoo 08/15/2019 10:26PM

The AR15 is basically a garden variety semi-auto rifle that looks scary -- CharlestonSC 08/15/2019 7:51PM

Start with a 1000% tariff on all imported semiautos rifles and handguns. -- HowieT3 08/15/2019 9:48PM
