Why should assault rifles be banned? why should assault rifles be banned. They are made to get more rounds off at a time. They are not the cause of all murders they are also used to do sport shooting. Assault rifles should not be banned because they are used for sport shooting and are used to show off. In my opinion i don't think they should because they're used for more than just killing and murders and war. Nationally assault weapons were used in 1.4 percent of crimes involving firearms and 0.25 persent of all violent crime before the enactment of any national or state assault weapons ban. Assault rifles are inaccurate. They say assault rifles are military guns and and are used for war.In 2009, 49 police officers died
