Like an AWB could have ANY effect on the number of "gun massacres" committed with handguns.

The number of people killed annually with rifles of ALL types is still well below the number killed with blunt objects.

Right. And the trend for shootings has been down since the AWB expired. The exceptions have been democrat enclaves with tight gun prohibitions. Recently homicides with firearms have risen in these democRat cities in proportion to rising anti police political attitudes.

Also, we know who it is that commits an outsized proportion of violence committed with firearms. But it would be racist to address it so the problem cannot be resolved.
