Yes, please in your Almighty wisdom tell us how you would enact this?
Most mass shooters have a history of domestic violence, but the pro-gun community opposes disarming domestic abusers.
Most mass shooters have a history of red flags, but the pro-gun community opposes disarming people with red flags.
But really, you seem to have misunderstood whose problem this is to solve. It's not the people who support gun control doing all the mass shootings, its legal gun owners (or the children of legal gun owners).
If you want me to solve it, I'm more than happy to, bur you're not going to like it.
The rest of the country? You do realize that people who are gun owners are the majority right?
The majority of Americans support stricter gun legislation. basically any time they're asked.
Mass shootings are a recent phenomenon, not something that has been happening for forever and it's all the guns fault
You mean the last 20 years, during which you've let the problem spiral further and further out of control, despite insisting that you have the answers?
That percentage also won't be going down as all the children you sold out graduate and have to face sending their own children off to play mass-shooting roulette.
We've been armed for a long time, hell kids used to bring their rifles to school so they could go hunt afterwards, and this was less than 40 years ago that kids were doing this.
Then jump in your time machine and fuck off back there, because that America no longer exists.
If you think you can rebuild it, go right ahead. Until then, gun legislation isn't even remotely close to handling the America of today and needs to be addressed immediately.
Ah yes here it comes the tried and true method of dehumanizing your opponent...you think an AWB will stop school shootings
Oh no, you're mistaking me for a politician tip-toeing around a death cult. I'd ban all semi-automatic firearms from being privately owned, because they're the weapons of choice for criminals and terrorists.
It's not even remotely close to worth it. All the pro-gun promises turned out to be lies and fantasies.
because I don't think it will and that we need to focus on why they happen and solve that, you slam down the "ok with kids being shot"...how original.
How many innocent lives are your gun laws worth then? Because we've got the numbers and you've done nothing, so I just assumed it was more than that.
My wishlist of how to heavily curb all violence in this country starts with
Damn, looks like you've got a fuckload of work ahead of you before it's safe to sell guns to people again. Better get started.
2/3rds of our gun deaths are suicides
Means reduction has worked for every form of suicide it's targeted.
the remaining 3rd has around 85% as gang/drug violence
The they get their guns from the magic gun fairy, or did they steal then from "responsible gun owners" who left their guns poorly secured?
Or did they just buy one because "haven't been convicted of a felony yet" is a trivial bar to clear? Or maybe they just bought one privately without a background check at all, because that's a feature that pro-gun cultists insist on?
then domestic violence
Which again, the gun lobby doesn't consider grounds for disarming someone.
the last tiny bit is mass shootings... it's basically a rounding error it's so small.
Weren't you objecting to the "okay with kids being shot" label just a few sentences ago? Because calling murdered people a "rounding error" sounds exactly like someone who is okay with kids getting shot.
As long as they're not yours apparently.
