Your objections to it notwithstanding, I still think psych evaluations would help (not solve the problem, but help). But I'm willing to forego that if gun owners would agree to make owning a firearm no more difficult than owning and operating a car.
-Title and tag at each point of sale.
-Required training.
-Written/practical tests.
-Minimum health requirements (vision, hearing, etc).
-Liability insurance (people who own more than one firearm would be eligible for a multi-gun discount).
-Renewals and inspections at regular intervals.
