Is it because alcohol, tobacco, and firearms also have legal pathways? So they spend time tracking down cheats and checking/enforcing regulations?

You’ve fallen into the trap yourself. “Assault rifles” are defined as “select fire rifles in an intermediate caliber intended for infantry use.” Select fire rifles have been banned in the US since 1986, 37yr ago, unless you have your Class III SOT (which means you have the licencure required to own them because you showed an ATF agent your business plan of selling them to mil and police.)
What you have an issue with is just a regular semiautomatic rifle that cosmetically looks scary and black, but functions just like every other semi auto rifle or pistol on the planet. Not only that, but all rifles (not even just ARs, all rifles) are responsible for 500/60,000 gun deaths for a rate of 0.2% of gun deaths. Banning them would do nothing, mass shooters already use handguns more and as we see from the VT shooting you can kill a lot of unarmed people with them.
Oh god one of these absolute donkies whining about definitions when guns are the leading cause of death among children.
For the one year they weren’t riding around in cars? Btw that study has been majorly debunked, it included kids 0-19 and only took place in Philly, NYC, Chicago, Baltimore, and LA, our areas particularly known for gang violence, gangs which are famously all populated with people under 25 (cause usually they don’t live much longer, or get arrested, or quit but that’s the least popular option.)
Gun violence is gun violence and our major cities are the places we should be studying and conforming our policy to. You people are deranged and gullible.
Lol. “O-block is violent we need to make the entire rest of the country which is the soze of the EU conform to 10 sq mi.”
Call me when you actually have meaningful input.
