Highlighting the importance of looking at new gun regulations, the report finds that 28% of mass shootings since 2009 involved either high-capacity magazines or assault weapons. The report also notes that 9% of these mass shootingsAi??occurredAi??in schools (either primary, secondary, or college campuses).
Sign our petition supporting the bold White House gun plan.
This study was for 25 states only. Shouldn’t your article mention that somewhere?
Let’s see that means almost three quarters 72% of the mas murders an assult weapon or high capacity magazine was not used.
An “assault weapon” is a meaningless term. More homicides were killed with hammers last year than with ANY rifle, regardless of whether they had the cosmetic features anti-gun propagandists refer to as “assault weapons” or not. Should we ban them and tell carpenters to use glue???
