My point is this guy is crazy. If you want to cause mass harm you can. Banning guns of any type wont stop that.

You're not offering much of a choice, especially those who are in the line of the fire or explosion. I mean, would you rather have your eyes gouged or have the left side of your brain removed?

Banning "assault weapons" will stop someone from shooting 71 people in a crowded theater in a short period. It certainly works in the rest of the civilized world, I can't imagine it won't work here.
