I have an accurized Government Model Mini 14 in 5.56.  It's significantly more accurate than the AR-15 platform, but I'd rather have my Garand when hunting wild pigs.

It would not and it was not banned. Some types with some mods where banned. The ar-15 was limited to 20 rounds and was purchasable.  A winchester 7400 .308 deer rifle is WAY WAY WAY more deadly then an ar15. A varmint rifle with the .243 round is more deadly.

The assault weapon this killer used to be ban under the Bill Clinton administration but the federal ban lapsed. Some state have banned this weapon. Some haven't.
It would definitely reduce the number of people killed if this weapon is banned.  There is no way to stop these attacks. So limit the number of dead.
Nobody needs an assault weapon, the only purpose of which is to kill people.  Australia banned them after their mass killing and the ban is working.

  "The Port Arthur massacre remains one of the deadliest shootings worldwide committed by a single person. Following the spree, the Prime Minister of Australia, John Howard, introduced strict gun control laws within Australia and formulated the National Firearms Programme Implementation Act 1996, restricting the private ownership of high capacity semi-automatic rifles, semi-automatic shotguns and pump-action shotguns as well as introducing uniform firearms licensing. It was implemented with bipartisan support by the Commonwealth, states and territories."

Unfortunately, the Port Arthur massacre is no longer one of the deadliest shootings worldwide committed by a single person.  That record has been broken.

Randy, I think your saying what I'm saying, We have to fix the shooter before he gets to the gun, remove the cause or reeducate to a more appropriate response,

Oye ok Im going down the Rabbit hole.   We have problems in this country.  In Australia prior to its gun laws in 1996 the murder rate was around and 2 per 100,000. Yeah they just don't seem to like to kill each other.
Gun murders are a symtom of a much larger problem in this country.  Banning Assault rifles that make up like .2% of all Murders and Homocides in the US is like building a wall around the Illness. AS HORRIBLE as it is hiding the illiness by attempting to cover up the symtoms will do pretty much nothing.   If people did actually care then everyone would just get a "We are Chicago" TATTOO.  50 a week 90% hand guns. I know of no state where one can get a handgun with out a background check.  We live in a country that is made up of 2 worlds, The first world suburbs and the third world of the inner cites and Rural area such as apalacha and say PINE RIDGE RESERVATION. (FYI the largest mass shooting in american history was the MASSACRE of innocent women, children and the elderly at Wounded knee of Lakota, 250-350 people)

Until we fix those problems nothing will be fixed.  MS13 isn't using weapons they bought at the gun store. 

Middle class america don't give a shit about the poor. You can tell because they vote against proper funding of innercity schools that might take away some money from their local schools.  Unemployment rate in Philly for african american's is 17.7% and that is the BS u-1 figure not the u-10 figure that actually matters to the economy.   White unemployment is 8.8 for the u-1.  

We have a much bigger issue that has a symtom. When we address that issue the symtoms will fade.  It will also be about 1000x easier to get that fixed then ever get gun laws changed in a way that would change the murder rate.  The Assault weaspns ban literally had ZERO affect on the murder rate in the US.  

Serbia is 2nd in Guns per capita in the world.  They own 33% less guns but have 66% less murders.  FIX THE SICKNESS and the Symtoms will go away.  Fix the Symtoms and the Sickness will just fester until it explodes.

#1, I'm not a gun owner
#2, what people call gun control is PEOPLE CONTROL
#3, eliminate guns, the disturbed will find another weapon, do you wish to ban cars, knives, baseball bats, bricks...

Hah!  If anything, it makes people less courteous.  Try living in the rural south where everybody carries a gun to the local Walmart.  That does not make anybody any safer - just the opposite.  If something doesn't change here in the USA, I'm moving to a country that has sensible gun control.

What reason is there to go to Syria? I honestly can’t think of a reason, as if you’re looking to help the rebels, good luck on finding any who will talk to him. If he wants to go someplace where everybody carries a gun, he can go to Israel. 
 
If he wants to have fun, he can go to Denmark for the beer and blondes, where the girls all feck on the first date. Why? If it doesn’t work in the bedroom, it ain’t gonna work.
