[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Too many people are willingly misreading the Second Amendment and voting in equally ignorant people. 2E calls for a "well-regulated militia." At some point this became the idea that unregulated, unfettered access to guns of all types is a Constitutional right. A significant portion of our population really believes that's what the 2E says. 
We the people won't be free of gun violence until we can overcome the ignorance, the intentional misunderstandings, the crazy conspiracy ideas that so many believe in. And that won't happen without a well-educated public, which in itself can't happen without Republican buy-in to strong public schools. For now, our best bet is to use our VOTE. [/quote]

400 million guns. You aren't voting them away. [/quote]

I would support strict gun control measures if they can explain what we do with the 400M guns already in circulation.

Liberals want to pass feel-good gun control measures that read like "thots and prayers."  Now that we don't even have effective police enforcement, I wouldn't want normal people to give up their guns.  You can make law abiding citizens give up guns while also refusing to enforce laws against dangerous criminals. [/quote]
PP, please respond which gun safety measure you would support. A simple Y/N is fine
1. No more police auctioning off guns. Melt down guns used in crime.
2. Require licensing including taking a gun safety class
3. Require safe storage
4. Universal mental health background screenings
5. Gun insurance (to prevent property)
6. Red flag laws
7. Raise age of gun ownership to 21. Start with rapid fire assault then move yo long guns, pistols.[/quote]

What if victims of gun violence could sue gun manufacturers?[/quote]
