I do not think it would do "nothing", gator - but as part of a greater (Massachusetts-like) degree of regulation and control on a national basis - the nation can and will likely (albeit slowly) become safer, at least from the threat of firearms violence.

The AR-15 is illegal to buy new as of now, but you can still walk into a store and buy a Ruger Mini 14, SKS or basically anything without a pistol grip, because we all know how dangerous pistol grips are!

We already had an experiment with the 10 year "Assault Weapon" ban and the impact on gun violence was minimal. Many studies came to the same conclusion that it had no measurable effect.sugarmagnolia wrote: I for one am willing to experiment with banning AR-15 and other military type arms and see if it does “nothing”.
Maybe. Although, I don't see this becoming a national trend, except in the bluest of blue states.battlingignorance wrote:I do not think it would do "nothing", gator - but as part of a greater (Massachusetts-like) degree of regulation and control on a national basis - the nation can and will likely (albeit slowly) become safer, at least from the threat of firearms violence.
