Simple solutions to school shootings

Your OP is rendered irrelevant based on your faulty premise.

I am sorry that AR15s are scary looking for you. Nobody is forcing you to buy one. The sad fact remains that he could have caused as much destruction with other types of guns, that he chose an AR15 is irrelevant.

GEE, this also looks "semi-automatic" to me.

Amazing that your need for a useless piece of metal outweighs the life of a child.

I have limited interest in perusing gun laws. I hate the damn things.
But the point is weapons restrictions only go so far- and they are easily challenged as un-Constitutional.

That guys who shot up the black church in Charleston was making threats online and posing with Nazi paraphernalia.
That should be enough to take his guns, or at least mandate psychological follow up.
And then take his guns

It's more effective and "more" Constitutional to go after the situations/persons of interests, then pass gun laws that effect everyone

But that's not the goal of gun grabbing Liberals. Their goal is full on gun confiscation.

Asshole commits a school shooting with an AR and liberals clamor for a ban on all ARs.

A different asshole commits a school shooting with a semi-auto pistol and liberals will then clamor for a ban on all semi-auto pistols.

Another asshole then commits a school shooting with revolvers and liberals will then clamor for a ban on all revolvers.

Then an asshole drives his car through a school yard full of children and liberals go silent.

There was every expectation that it would be renewed, even Bush said that he would sign it. However they couldn't muster the votes due to purely partisan politics and naked self-interest.

National police organizations such as the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the International Brotherhood of Police Officers and the Fraternal Order of Police all support the renewal of the ban. President Bush has said he would sign such a bill if Congress passed it.

Idaho State Police spokesman Rick Ohnsman said troopers have had no significant problems with assault style weapons and his agency has not taken a position for or against the federal legislation.

Or maybe, just MAYBE, the ban didn't result in a reduction in crime and the realization that it didn't have the support of the voters.

Funnily enough there was a study of mass killings for the fifty years prior to 2016. The facts are at variance with your opinion, no doubt gleaned from the NRA.

For his 2016 book “Rampage Nation,” Klarevas collected data on every gun massacre — which he defines as six or more people shot and killed — for the 50 years before 2016. His aim was to see whether there was any change in the number of gun massacres while the 10-year federal ban on assault weapons was in place.

He calls the results “staggering.” Compared with the 10-year period before the ban, the number of gun massacres during the ban period fell by 37 percent, and the number of people dying from gun massacres fell by 43 percent. But after the ban lapsed in 2004, the numbers shot up again — an astonishing 183 percent increase in massacres and a 239 percent increase in massacre deaths.

Klarevas says that the key provision of the assault weapons bill was a ban on high-capacity magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds. “We have found that when large capacity mags are regulated, you get drastic drops in both the incidence of gun massacres and the fatality rate of gun massacres.”
