Thank you.
Now - here's the rub of "sensible gun control" -
It always targets the people who are not the problem.
As you have noted - responsible people are not the problem. They don't go about (for the most part) waving guns and acting like idiots.
Morons and criminals do that - and we don't want them owning or possessing guns.
But - inevitably - any gun legislation that gets passed - waiting periods, background checks, limits on types of firearms, numbers of firearms, types of ammo - ect ----- only affect those people who are willing to do things legally. Criminals or morons just steal a gun, or buy one illegally. A legal M16 will cost upwards of $15,000. An illegal one will go for a thousand or two.
So what to do?
How about changing the way we do "gun control"? Quit doing what doesn't work.
Register the morons and criminals - not the guns.
Make morons and criminals have a "no guns" logo on their identification - and require all guns sales to show ID. (AND failure to comply a felony) Make it a felony to buy or illegally sell guns and put those that do it in a deep dark hole for a long, long time.
