Our country suffers from a heart/morality problem, we have lost our way as a society/country.
You state that "...they have become the weapon of choice for nearly every nut case bent on mass destruction." Study some statistics from the CDC on "rifle" deaths, in 2018 there were 297 total deaths by all rifles, and you think that it is because the American people have the ability to own AR15's that we are losing our gun rights? Why does a person have to seek out the data on "rifle" deaths? Could it be that it doesn't fit the politburo's agenda on stripping the American citizens of their gun rights?
Call me callous, cold, or whatever, but 297 people dying of rifle deaths is a small price to pay for keeping the power in the people's hands and preventing subjugation and potential mass genocide that follows disarmament of the populace.
The vast majority of the American people have succumbed to "group think" and lack any semblance of critical thinking. They buy hook, line and sinker what the media wants them to, be it news, social media, or agenda driven politicians. What is sad is that we have people who should know this and know better than to fall for the lies and propaganda that is spread to serve underlying agendas of the activist politicians.
The FBI figures look at the intentional, criminal use of firearms, and show a total of 297 deaths from rifles of any kind in 2018. This means accidental death by falling occurred 126 times more often than intentional death by a rifle of any kind in 2018.

Freedom is and never will be free, with freedom comes great responsibility and the deaths that arise out of the tragedies perpetrated by sick individuals will continue if we wish to be a free country. As this country gets further and further away from knowledge and belief in our Creator, we fall further victim to the stripping away of our freedoms for the sake of "safety."
I know the stats on rifle shooting, and yet you never hear about those other deaths, only the ones by mass shootings.
The media is what drives public opinion, and politician's actions.
