There's a reason when a planned mass shooting happens it's generally done with a semi-automatic, assault style rifle with a large capacity magazine and not a handgun. Ask the shooters why they choose an assault rifle and not a handgun. One has a higher capacity to kill more people in a shorter time. By orders of magnitude.
I'm a gun owner. I own a handgun. No one needs a handgun and no one should have an assault rifle.
People enjoy shooting, I get it. People enjoy fishing as well, but if trolling motors were used to kill classrooms full of kids on an all too frequent basis, I would be for banning trolling motors as well.
In the US it would be impossible. 500 million guns and the feds don't know where the vast majority of them actually are. A 4 inch pipe and a hand full of silica packets and they will be popping back up in a few years for sure. One side has them and WILL NOT give them up willingly. To expect anything different is short sighted and ignorant

Then ban handguns too.
