I apologize if this has already been covered but I cam across this article and wanted to comment on it.

It states:
Those participating have three main demands for Congress:
-- Ban assault weapons;
-- Require universal background checks before gun sales;
-- Pass a gun violence restraining order law that would allow courts to disarm people who display warning signs of violent behavior.
I disagree with all three. What is an "Assault Weapon?" Universal background checks to include private (non-FFL) gun sales are just a backdoor gun registry and completely unenforceable to guns sold before enactment of the law. Disarming people who display "warning signs" of violent behavior by confiscating their property seems like a violation of the 2nd and 4th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. If that wasn't bad enough, how would all of that stop future school shootings?
