Bill Clinton banned assault weapons in 1994; mass shootings dropped by 43%.
George W. Bush and the GOP let the assault weapons ban expire in 2004; mass shootings increased by 245%.
These numbers tell the whole story.

If the Dems ever get back in power they need to hold a referendum in a federal election, midterms likely, about specific sensible gun laws.
Assault weapons ban, background checks for all gun purchases, even gun shows and personnel sales. And other laws that I'm not thinking of.
