I do not see the connection though with stopping either mentally ill or just plain evil mass murderers who go on rampages with various weapons with large magazines and a capacity to fire semi-automatically.

Statistically these mass shootings take very few lives but they also have a huge economic impact on the communities involved with mental illness treatment of victims' family members and other survivors, trials and incarceration of the shooters if they survive the violence, jobs lost to affects of this violence, police man hours, lawsuits, etc.

Still believe that common sense approaches to limiting access to ammunition, high capacity ammo cartridges, and to the rifles and pistols themselves would stop at least a few of these mass shooters.
