According to the 2010 FBI crime data, since 1980, single victim killings have dropped by more than 40 percent. While that's very good news, there's a new sobering trend: Mass murders are on the rise. This New York Times article researched the frequency of mass murders. It found during the 20th century there were about one to two mass murders per decade until 1980. Then for no apparent reason they spiked, with nine during the 1980s and 11 in the 1990s. Since the year 2000 there have been at least 27, including the massacre in Newtown, Connecticut.

It's not the guns, it's what type of guns they are.

There are no reasons to have assault weapons in civilian hands. None. They will be taken. Reason will prevail this time.

You realize that weapons such as the AR-15 have been around since the late 50's early 60's right? which makes what you're saying pretty damn wrong
