I like guns. Have owned many and wanted many more.
Think a shotgun is reasonable protection for a home... 9mm backup perfect.
AR is a vermin gun. I'm sure folks in certain places need them.
Bah, people don't need guns in general.
I hear folks in Canada often leave their front doors unlocked..
you really wouldn't need to try and take the guns. the vast majority of people would voluntarily turn them in as opposed to doing jail time. this would take a huge number out of circulation. also, outlaw the sale of the bullets.
the goal is to not cause an immediate elimination of mass shootings, but a gradual one.
lol gg background checksNRA chief executive Wayne LaPierre spoke with Trump on Tuesday after the president expressed support for a background check bill and told him it would not be popular among Trump’s supporters, according to officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity to freely discuss internal talks. LaPierre also argued against the bill’s merits, the officials said.

And around and around we go. Sure some people will voluntarily give back their guns but these are people that are law abiding citizens that would never in a million years commit mass murder. So does taking their guns away help solve the problem of mass murders? I say no. This is an inefficient way to attempt to solve the problem that is gonna piss off millions of Americans and cause even more division.
in 50 years, our children will laugh at us as to how this was even a debate
much like they will laugh as to how we elected donald trump as president
again, you wouldn't really need to go the stormtrooper route to accomplish this. there are far smarter ways of doing it.
remove the civil liability protections currently in place against gun manufacturers (and no other industries) and see what happens. outlaw the selling or importation (but not ownership) of semi-auto rifles or bullets.
either that or just flood the southern states with mexicans and turn them blue. we're like 10 years from texas being permanently blue as is. are semi-auto rifles the hill you all want to die on?
your call. it's really not a question of "if" but "when". you know this.
I’m not dying on any hill, as I said before I’m not a gun owner. But there are millions of people that are willing to die on that hill because their position is if we let the government take away one constitutional right that will only be the beginning. If only a few people felt that way they could be disregarded in this discussion but they number in the millions. Whether their concern is justified or not is a different discussion but the threat of many of those people becoming extremists to protect their constitutional rights is very real.

i hear you. but with every sandy hook, the amount of people who agree with that mindset goes down.
increased background checks are a 90-10 issue. even most republicans are good with assault weapons bans. (i'd argue that most people polled consider assault weapons to be any semi-auto rifle, even if that's not technically true.)
you can only resist the will of the people for so long.
From the American Psychiatric Association (APA):
Mental health programs are severely underfunded in this country and access to needed care is challenging for individuals and families. It is important to note that the overwhelming majority of people with mental illness are not violent and far more likely to be victims of violent crime than perpetrators of violence. Rhetoric that argues otherwise will further stigmatize and interfere with people accessing needed treatment. Individuals can also be emboldened to act violently by the public discourse and divisive rhetoric.
I found this interesting.
sah_24: So then they use pistols and hunting rifles then you will want them banned ... you and jimmy are retarded like all liberals
sah you bloviating, blustering buffoon what are you fucking new?
I was prepared to expound on my previous post but I'm pretty sure I'd be wasting my breath.
Better luck with reading comprehension next time.
