"The problem". Let's talk about that. In Chikago alone there were, so far _this year_ as of the Florida HS shooting, 63 homicides among 297 shootings (ref
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-weekend-shootings-violence-20180219-story.html) .
Almost four times the number of deaths, most of those due to handguns, yet you want to ban black rifles with large magazines, and you only wrote Congress after the Florida high school shooting. I don't blame you, I blame the liberal media for bringing up gun violence when it's a school and not when the victims are several times more "brown" people. Demokrats would have to "target" their own constituents when they acknowledge why the inner cities have more shooting deaths... not going to happen.
Here is my 4-part REAL adult proposal that would have prevented the Florida attack, the Las Vegas attack, and several others:
1) Take the definition of whatever was banned during the 1990's Assault Weapons Ban and apply that to what may not be purchased before someone is 21 years old (making the rifle purchase age even with handguns and alcohol)
2) Federal and state laws to require that all involuntary mental health commitments, or other authority declarations of a mental health issue including the US military with its members, are reported to NICS to prevent firearm purchases
3) To maintain due process, have a defined procedure in place for a citizen to have full firearm ownership and purchasing rights restored by a judge if the judge is satisfied all treatment has been successful and no reasonable threat from the citizen exists
4) "Universal background check", defined as a NICS check for private firearms sales. To remedy concerns of creating a gun registration system, no identifying information about the firearm purchased is recorded, only an up-or-down indicator on whether the buyer is eligible to purchase a firearm
