No guns, no gun deaths.

Conclusion: (click here) Mass-shooting related homicides in the United States were reduced during the years of the federal assault weapons ban of 1994 to 2004.

Any loopholes that allowed weapons to be obtained can be addressed. The article above is what Bill Clinton read when he made the following statement.

“How many more people have to die before we reinstate the assault weapons ban & the limit on high-capacity magazines & pass universal background checks? After they passed in 1994, there was a big drop in mass shooting deaths. When the ban expired, they rose again. We must act now.”

— Former president Bill Clinton, in a tweet, Aug. 5, 2019

Both the article and Clinton's statement come from a roller coaster ride article in the Washington Post (click here) about authors of studies and types of statistical data used.

Let me clarify this somewhat. The AR-15 is the war weapon of choice to rank amateurs that want to kill. Their success is proven over and over that the choice of the AR-15 will kill even in the hands of amateurs.

As a society we can play with statistics all we want from a variety of authors of studies, but, discussing the right to own a weapon of war as a private citizen in the USA is not a reasonable discussion. THIS IS THE TRUTH. If the war weapons are not manufactured and not sold there are no AR-15s to carry out mass murder. IT IS JUST THAT SIMPLE. If ya ain't got the war weapon, there is no mass killing.

Got that? If there are no weapons of war on the streets of the USA there are no mass shootings that kill in large numbers. That is the truth. No debate. it is simply fact.

In the Washington Post article there was a data chart. It doesn't matter which method was used to make it, the data across the chart was all treated the same way, so there is some degree of truth in this graph. The black line shows the trend of the mass killings. I want to emphasize the increase in these killings since 2014.

It was June 17, 2015 when Donald John Trump announced his race for the presidency. The numbers of mass shooting deaths increased that year and continued to increase the trend ever since.
