USA and Gun control

I think we should replace all the real guns with water guns and hand out free waffles on the streets
But noooooooo. 'Reality'. -_- 
I went for 4 and 5. Background checks with registry and insurance. Inspection would be difficult due to manpower alone. What is the intended purpose of the inspection? Make sure it is a gun?
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

I went with 4. I don't believe 5 is realistic except for the registry part.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I voted for 1.

The purposes include making your the guns you have are the ones you're meant to have, that they're in working order, and being stored properly. People deemed unfit are denied firearms licensing. Boru

Sounds reasonable. A small number of firearms are restricted in this manner here. Think belt fed, tripod mounted machine guns. We definitely need something like that for handguns here in the USA.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
Well we know that prohibition doesn't work so how about we regulate guns based on what we know works through trial and error. I don't really see any other way that makes sense.
At the end of the day whether owning guns is your "constitutional right" or not is irrelevant. All that matters is what the majority wants in your state/community. 
Ban them all...
We can compromise from there. |
