I have said it before. Cops in Japan do not even carry guns. Because there is zero tolerance. Just get rid of them. Guns equal crime and death.
1) Just get rid of them and then mental health is a non-issue. Easier to eliminate guns than control the mental health of millions of people.
Edit: Start with handguns. Keep your camo mossberg.
It is no secret that the US has one, if not the highest, gun related homicide rate amongst developed nations. 1) Fewer guns means less shooting. It is not complicated math. The only reason to allow guns is because other people have guns. Just get rid of them all.
Unfortunately, it will not change anytime soon and I am not sure there is a way to repair what has already been allowed. Politicians have tried and failed time and time again. I go back to my Japan example. You can get a hunting rifle after extensive background checks, but no handguns for civilians. Ever. They have crime, but less people die.
Once again, leftists don't understand if you take guns away, criminals keep theirs. Non-criminals would lose their legal guns that they don't commit crime with.
Want to stop drunk drivers from killing sober drivers? Take cars away from sober drivers. That's how gun control works.
2) What an embarrassing, untrue, and ignorant thing to say. YOU are the reason so many of us don't intend to vote for a Dem any time soon. As soon as Dem culture stops blaming victims for things while defending the criminal, maybe we can win elections again.
No, take away the alcohol to stop drunk drivers. Keep your shotgun. Keep your hunting rifle. But make them harder to obtain. Any idiot can walk into a gun store and walk out dangerously armed with more firepower than any person needs. There were no semi automatics when the second amendment was enacted. They used muskets and powder pistols to protect their land. Get rid of all handguns, semi automatics, hollow points etc., and large magazines. This is not a political position, it is a human position that should cross party lines. There is no ignorance in seeing that the US has more gun violence than any other country. Just get rid of them. I would rather see a crackdown on guns than a crackdown on immigrants. And I have never whined about due process not being afforded to illegal immigrants. That issue is a different discussion.
I agree with all your regulations. Let's ban assault rifles and bump stocks too. Not sure about handguns. I'm fine with them if they are kept at home, or on a firing range. There should be no open carry and people taking them in public. That's ridiculous.
But just walking through Walmart with an open carry, that's just weird.0
