Because that where I would start, personally.

Severely limiting anything that Americans have had easy access to in the past isn't going to go over well at all.
Just like it's so hard to have rational pro gun talks with Canadians because they have demonized most guns for so long its hard to have rational talks about the cons of owning guns to Americans who own them.
I like to think I am a pretty intelligent and rational guy. I just don't see how outlawing most guns is going to solve or severely decrease this type of activity.
Sure they should ban fully automatic weapons , some military assault rifles, and all extended magazine hand guns. However people that want to kill people will find another way to kill people.
