Texas, Nevada, Florida, those states are in our minds and hearts. Those states have had mass shootings in the past decade. But if our government had a stronger hold on guns and changed the laws, they would protect many lives. First of all, AR-15’s are unneeded for self defense and 25% of mass shootings have been done with this gun. For instance, you can use a GAT CRANK to make an AR-15 fully automatic, and the user stated, “It was easy and cheap.” That means you can turn any semi-automatic gun almost fully automatic which makes it more dangerous. Additionally, Stephen Paddock, the Las Vegas killer of 60 and wounder of over 500, used the illegal bump stock and AR-15 to do this mass shooting. That proves how rifles aren’t used for self defense
