Do you think it's ok for people to have guns more powerful than the police?

A overwhelming number of people want these changes EVEN GUN OWNERS

Wake up
Military weapons are already illegal.

A weapon should not be made illegal based solely on whether it is ugly or pretty.

I don't want laws that set a precedent with an arbitrary line that can later be changed. I am against weakening the Constitution by letting a foot in the door.

Would a background check have made a difference? For all I know, one was performed.

I am skeptical of the "overwhelming number" claim. But easy enough to find out - put it on a ballot.

Where is the legislation making it illegal to shoot students and teachers or to shoot into a crowd watching a parade? If the solution was a law then let's create those laws. What? Those laws already exist but the criminals don't obey them? Then why in the world is there such a push to create more laws for the criminals to disobey.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
