When is it going to be enough?

A restaurant in Nashville, a high school in Parkland, a elementary school in Sandy Hook, a theater in Aurora, churches in Charleston & Sutherland Springs, and a concert in Las Vegas, plus other cities were shootings occurred. These shootings all in the last ten 10 years, involved an unstable person who had the access to high powered weapons. Nothing else to add, plain and simple!

exactly what an assault rifle is and isn’t and what an AR15 is (or isn’t).
Only then can we take a vote on banning (or not banning).

some change is happening, some pushed by the young folks from Parkland, some of it market driven, some legislative (not nearly enough) but progress is being made. It is excruciatingly slow, but it is happening.
