Not really. This sounds like someone describing a mass shooter.

You want random people running around with ARs everywhere who can open fire at any time?

And this comment suggests such a person must be insane. It's reasonable to conclude Vergil believes people who hold rifles in public are insane, carry them with intent to use and can open fire at any time, which sounds like a mass shooter.

Uh, if you think carrying any gun at all is the same as running around with an automatic rifle, we don’t have enough in common to bother talking.

An AR is not an automatic rifle. It's a semi-automatic rifle. The pistol the shooter used was a semi-automatic pistol.

An automatic rifle costs well in excess of 5 figures, probably close to the median annual income nowadays. The man who was shot is almost guaranteed not to own one.

Automatic weapons have been prohibited from being manufactured for civilian sale since Reagan was in office. Every automatic weapon in circulation predates most millennials. You have to be pretty wealthy to own one, and transferring them means involving the ATF. The government knows who owns them.
