eventually even liberals SHOULD come to the obvious conclusion,
most of us have long held,
that crime is almost exclusively caused by CRIMINALS
you can't blame a secondary factor for the initial result
that's like blaming FLYS for producing GARBAGE
CRIMINALS cause CRIME,
they have been doing that,
long before KNIVES, let alone firearms were invented
people killed others with rocks or clubs
there's a very small minority of the population,
that thinks anything they do to gain material goods,from others,
or force those weaker than they are to submit is just fine!
there are currently a MINIMUM of 20-30 million military style semi auto rifles in civilian hands
Estimates of the number of AR-15 rifles in the United States vary, but some say there could be as many as 44 million:
there are over 2.9 million AR-15 rifles sold every year in the last decade alone,
statistics say the AR15 is AMERICA'S most popular rifle.
and there's hundreds of other similar rifles like the AK SK, FAL, rifles being sold in similar numbers
a reasonable estimate is over 4-5 million similar semi auto rifles, of all types in total ,
have been sold every year for DECADES
and absurdly small percentage are mis-used

using liberal logic we should outlaw auto transmissions in cars,
as statistically a huge majority of violent criminals ,
drive cars with automatic transmissions
