“Assault weapons” are military hardware; civilians don’t have them. We have “scary black rifles”, which no Assault Weapons Ban will solve,and shouldn’t. It’s not a gun violence problem; it’s a criminal violence problem, and once again, the FBI/BATF let another one (Buffalo shooter) slip thru the system’s checks, and commit a massacre.

Exactly- there isn’t a gun problem- there is a problem with those agencies NOT stopping violent criminals when they had them under surveillance (To be fair- they do strop a lot- but they let a number get through, likely for political reasons, and we end up with tragic situations - )
