You are so hard-up for guns that you're actually suggesting human beings should be put in rooms, alone, with no communication or contact. You expect us to take you seriously, really?
Fun fact: my cousin went to prison for beating an elderly couple nearly to death with a baseball bat... because they breathed too loud. I shit you not.
You can limit the risk of someone being shot with a weapon, or limit the number of people shot with a weapon, but limiting how people react to something is much, much harder. Impossible, really.

Never said that they be put in rooms.
I said, why shouldn't the US government pass a law to keep people from using harsh language, thus forcing people to be nice to others to prevent people from being pushed to mass shootings.
I'm not suggesting it be implemented, I'm asking (for the 3rd or 4th time now because it's been dodged) why not pass this law?
This assault weapon ban is a ban on a type of weapon that has been shown to be rarely used in gun violent crimes compared to all gun violent crimes. So why try to ban this weapon compared to the weapons that contribute the most gun violence?
If it's because this type of weapon was used in a few school shootings, why not ban the words and actions that pushed those people to committing these crimes? The 1st has already been butchered previously, so there isn't any debate whether they can or can't push this through, yeah?
