And uh, yes, we DO close the bars, there are operating hours.

And uh, yes, the AR-15 is just a tool that is the tool of choice for killing children in schools. Only HERE, no where else in the world (at our rate).

And no, removing all AR15's (can't be done) would not solve the problem, and I have NEVER advocated that. I would like it, but I know it is not possible. So, instead I am for things like universal background checks - n o responsible gun owner can come up with any explanation why they is bad - but many try with things like "the government has no rights to do that, I have a right to a gun". And so, for what 50 years now, we have been arguing while children die.

Australia eliminated all AR-15 and ANY other semi-auto rifle and their mass murder rate dropped to zero. That is what a smart country that is not dominated by gun manufacturers does for its citizens. They put citizens' lives above the profits of the gun manufacturers. They still allow bold action rifles to be used by hunters and target shooters.
