Yep, enjoy the show. Out of all the subjects I will not back off of, this is one of them. I have seen too much firearm violence in my life in America to find this shit acceptable. We have more civilian deaths from firearms than military deaths. There is lots of good about America, but nobody should be proud of the amount of firearm fatalities in America. One really has to be delusional or flat out selfish to find 36,000 firearm deaths per year acceptable. If the current crop of firearm laws worked, we would not see that amount we do.
Europe and Australia and Japan and New Zealand are not closed fascist states, but seem to get their laws right.
We SHOULD ban high capacity clips for both handguns and riffles. None of that sentence saying ban 100% of all firearm ownership. We should take firearms away from disturbed people, such as domestic abusers, violent felons and terrorists and the mentally ill. We should vet anyone buying a gun to insure they are mentally fit to safely keep and safely us and safely store them. AGAIN, none of anything I said is calling for a complete 100% ban. This is just a call for pragmatic regulations to insure a firearm does not get into the wrong hands.
It is sad that the last time a majority of government cared to prevent firearm violence was when the Brady Bill was passed after Reagan got shot. Ever since the NRA and the firearm industry has done everything in the world to stifle and prevent anything sane that would promote a safer society.

Unenforceable bans are unenforceable. Duct tape is an illegal aftermarket modification.
If you see something, say something.

Yes people can and do do that, that should be illegal too. Just like it is illegal in most of the country to modify a shotgun to be a sawed off shotgun. You cant stop all speeders 100% of the time either, but we still have speed limits.
