Obv. I'm not saying that civilians should be allowed to own AR-15esque weapons because they can only cause limited carnage. For civilian use that limitation isn't enough.
I have no idea what you can possible gain by letting the civilian population carry something like AR-15. How often are you in a position where you need to gat down 20-30 vermins at a single go? That's literally the only scenario that's not better served by a shotgun, lever-action/bolt-action-rifle or a handgun.
