I recall a time back when it seemed like everyone owned a gun.

You could go to the store and buy a machine gun.

We didn't have issues children shooting other children.

Got my first bb gun when I was 6 and 22 when I was 8. I miss those days, no internet and you had to be responsible for your actions.

It's not a womb.
It's a baby.
Everyone knows not to kill babies.
Even you.

apparently deranged idiots with ar 15s dont have a problem killing babies.

"deranged idiot"

Just stop there.

i wish the cops stopped him at the first engagement.

That doesn't mean I shouldn't have access to them.
You can never trade liberty for security.
You lose both if you do.

Deranged AND idiot is very dangerous but still able to pass a gate and to press a trigger.
Simplest brain also tends have the best reflexes, which is not good news.

The % of people calling for an AR ban is far smaller than the % calling for increased steps to access them. Age limit of 21, background check, safety course, etc.

i cant personally remember a school shooter who was age 21+. so that alone may be enough to change the game.
