Define " proper licensing".
We have been shuffling paperwork since 1968 - and all that's happened is things have gotten worse.

Your country has an adequate system for issuing liscences for things such as heavy equipment or vehicles?
With tweaks and addendum surly something similar would suffice as an entry level of safety?
Or is a vehicle liscence also a different sort of problem?
Your possible helping hand suggestion might be?

I appologize - but we have gotten very far off track from the subject.
You have been quite polite about it - which makes it hard to say no.
Polite discussion is so hard to find these days.
Let' s leave it to another thread.

All the best.
Though the parting of our discourse so unsolved does leave me a tad saddened.
Cheers.

Probably not.
Sure, it wouldn't work and actually all guns should be taken off people except some hunting weapons that qualified hunters use (like it is in most countries), but in a land like US, where even health care is seen as conspiracy for a boogeyman to kill people, there's no way. So US will always be a Wild West with cowboys, Indians and alike shooting at each other on the streets and other public places.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Well Fake Messiah, the other effect will be a form of 'Social natural selection.'
Eventually there just won't be enough people left to shoot other people.

It's awfully rude of you to not use it.

Cut the crap dude. Nobody sane is fooled by your rinse and repeat bullshit.
"Its the mentally ill"
"It's the criminals"
"Its violent video games"
"It'ts terrorists"
"It's domestic abusers"
"We simply need to arm more"
"This law wont work."
Now it is, "Red flag laws wont work."
Next week it will be because black people kneel. The week after that it will be because we don't have prayer in schools. The week after that it will because Jesus is a communist. The week after that it will be because Mickey Mouse didn't give you a blowjob.
IT IS FUCKING EASE OF ACCESS, AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN. Just admit you don't want to do shit because an object is more important than public safety to you.

Right after you admit that you're a one trick pony who can't address a point - but keep parroting the same tired mantra.
Use the cut and paste once to agree - twice to disagree.....
