These kids are uneducated and don't know what they're talking about. Unlike most of my peers I've decided to become educated and I've decided that honestly, further gun control is pointless. At most, we can just remove guns from Walmart and shit, but beyond that there isn't much we can do.
These kids talk about banning Assault Weapons, when Assault weapons in their proper classification and full definition are and have been banned since 1986. In order for a gun to be an Assault weapon, it must first have select fire between semi auto and full auto, a detachable stock, etc. These kids merely assume an AR-15 is a Military grade weapon because of it's appearance, when in reality the military was and has been hesitant to use weapons like the AR-15 and don't even employ the use of these weapons at all.
These people want to feel safer, not be safer. In the 70's and 80's people showed up to school with guns all the time, even had them strapped to their vehicles, and there were no mass shootings to speak of. But all of a sudden from the 90's and onward these shootings seem to be in full force each year or every other year. Clearly the issue is mental health.
The issue of guns has very little solutions if any at all. What caused this shooting was lazy handling of Nicolas Cruz by the FBI and the local institutions in that area of Florida. They ignored him and even allowed him to shoot the whole place up, as four police officers were reported to have been waiting outside when the shooter was firing at people.
