I'm telling you that their craven pursuit of profits is all you would need to know to understand why you're barking up the wrong tree. There's no money, for them, in mass shootings or the guns that get used in mass shootings.
The only money in guns, from a gun manufacturers perspective, are guns that have not yet been bought or used, and guns that can command a greater price than those which already have been. As Laozi put it, it's the empty space that makes a bowl useful.
No fucking shit. WE ARE SAYING THE SAME THING!
I kid you not, I was a dishwasher at a breakfast place. One day the boss's son brought me a pot of biscuit gravy. He put it down in the same spot where it was normal for wait staff to dump discarded food everyone expected to be dumped. I don't know why to this day he put that food in front of me. He shouted at me about the lost potential profits. All I could think was, "how the fuck was I supposed to know"?
It isn't about rights for me, and most of the sane. It is about letting one industry dictate laws to protect profits.
