Unquestionably assault style weapons are the choice of mass murderers. There are lots of other weapons for hunters to use after all hunting was around long before assault weapons were. FWIW my home state of Maryland has a ban on assault style weapons.

Lee Greenwood, After Canceling NRA Appearance, Drops Bomb on Fox News: ‘That Weapon Killed Kids!’
‘OUT OF RESPECT’

https://www.thedailybeast.com/lee-gr...chool-shooting

Quote:
Lee Greenwood, the staple of Trump rallies and the most prominent musician to pull out the National Rifle Association’s annual meeting in Texas, told Fox News on Friday that his conscience would not allow him to perform at the event in the wake of the Uvalde school shooting.

Greenwood directly cited the massacre that left 19 children and two adults dead as the cause of his last-minute pang of conscience.

During an appearance on Fox & Friends on Friday, Greenwood added: “For me to go and play at the NRA just days after the shooting would be an endorsement, and people would then deem that as [me saying] ‘I like this weapon.’ Obviously, that weapon killed kids. I just couldn’t go.”

He noted that he and other artists were on contract to perform, but that the the attack happened at “a very bad time” so soon after the attack.

The hosts of the Faux "News" morning program quickly changed the subject after his comments.

A Republican Tried to Introduce a Commonsense Gun Law. Then the Gun Lobby Got Involved.

Unhappy It keeps getting worse.
Three days later and the story keeps changing after details keep emerging.

Border Patrol Tactical Team Was Ordered to Hold Back Before Confronting the Gunman
Will the parties responsible own up to it or will the finger pointing begin?

Gee, all those gun-toting good ol' boy Republicans in Texas and nobody did a damn thing to stop this shooter, not even the cops, until it was too late?

Could it be that such people are full of shit?

I think so.

What is to stop a shooter from moving to other targets of opportunity? Play grounds parks swimming pools the list is a long one.....

Short of everyone packing, even then not the answer. What to live in a armed camp everyone?


The gun companies want that for sure.....

The removal of the weapons and high capacities mags would be a starting point.
