It is a societal problem, exacerbated by the easy availability of most
high-powered firearms. Even in Maryland, there is no state background
check for a long gun, or even a waiting period. You just have to be 21.

Tell you a secret. I got rid of my "high-powered" rifles, the Colt and
the Ruger, because they bored me. Basically, my target shooting is
limited to 100 yards unless I want to take a 2-1/2 hour drive out to the
Shenandoah. I don't need superfast, superloud .223 rounds and their
expense and noise to hit easily hit dead .targets at 100 yards or less.
A .22LR, a 9 mm, or a .357 MAG will do that job nicely.

When was a .357 cheap and quiet to shoot?

A .357 MAG/.38 Special rifle like the one I have can be suppressed:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1LrRIQzMHU&t=143s

I have a quantity of good .357 MAG brass ammo for which I paid 21 cents
a round some years ago when equivalent quality .223 was between 28 and
31 cents a round. Decent .38 Special ammo is about 16 cents a round.

I've got a suppressor on order that should work with my 9mm rifle and
..357 MAG rifle.

Of course, my .357 MAG revolver can't be suppressed, but I don't take it
to the range that often. It's my home defense firearm. As in, home
invader breaks in, comes after us, no way to escape, "Bang, you're dead."

The world would be a safer place if you'd stick to Googling poetry
rather than fooling around with guns.

The rest of your life you will be saying "huh" a lot. Do you have any
idea how loud a .357 is inside the house? My ex used to complain when
I was shooting hot rounds at the other end of the house, doors closed
and a floor down.
I really got a giggle about Dirty Harry shooting his 29 Smith in that
stadium tunnel. His ear drums would pop and his nose would be
bleeding. When we fired my buddy's 29 in the basement it was like
getting hit in the face with a wet towel, pictures came off the wall
and that was paneling, carpet and more open area, not concrete.
This was ear plugs and muffs sort of thing.

Good question and nobody would say that was a round that was not very
deadly. I will admit not many box magazine guns will shoot it tho.

That is simply rationalizing. Plenty of mass shootings have happened
with 9mms, usually pistols but your assault rifle would do just fine.
The "military style" thing is really a red herring. Your CZ is
certainly "military style" and they will sell you a tactical style
stock for just about anything. You can certainly make a very
"military" looking weapon out of a Mini14 or even a 10-22.

What part is "rationalizing"? The AR-15 is the school shoot up weapon of
choice. Any idiot can buy a long gun privately in many parts of this
country without any background check or waiting period. I didn't mention
"military style." You did.

Yes, I am sure some moron can shoot up a school with a CZ Scorpion, but
a $900 9mm rifle is not a weapon of choice for that sort of "fun."

Richard is stuck on the military thing, along with most of the left.

If that is what they had, that is what they would use. The Columbine
boys used a similar Hi Point carbine.
