Another shooting... California Disability Centre

It's also a bad idea and impossible to execute. Satisfied?

I respectfully disagree. I don't think it'd be impossible to execute. I think it'd be very difficult, and take a few years to really have a huge effect. But not impossible to execute.

But remember, this is the nuclear option. Let's say this one is implemented and doesn't work. What's your suggestion?

OK let's talk specifics.

Are we talking about stopping the sale of all future guns? Or are we talking about the confiscation of all guns?

Thank you. Always easier to talk with than at.

Subject: Any weapon with a standard capacity(no custom work) of more than 8 bullets, and any unregistered firearm.
Action: Confiscation.

How do you do it?
 
Also, while digging around, I did find this:

https://everytownresearch.org/reports/mass-shootings-analysis/

Lots of interesting data. The one that stands out is the prohibited/non-prohibited graph. 38% of mass shooting perpetrators should not have been able to have a gun.

Certain categories of people, including felons, certain domestic abusers, and severely mentally ill people are prohibited by federal law from possessing guns. There was sufficient evidence to judge whether the shooter was a prohibited gun possessor in 116 of the 133 incidents (87%). Of those 116 incidents, 44 (38%) involved a prohibited possessor, and 73 (62%) did not.

If you had read my posts you would already know it. National Gun Registry

A national Gun Registry is a great start, but what next? People that keep their guns off the registry? Buy illegally/import?

There is no solution for those things. That's one of the reasons that I'm okay with responsible citizens who want to carry concealed weapons. Your solution takes guns out of the hands of good people. Not only would you be in for an unbelievably huge fight if you tried, but I believe we are better off if good people have guns. As a matter of fact, I might buy one for myself.

So because it can't be completely contained, we shouldn't try to curb it with tougher gun laws?

Unlike drugs, gun owners aren't addicted. ... ... or are they?
