One mother of a kid murdered in a mass shooting started this petittion. dmittedly it is only for Americans, so if you live in the states and value gun safety, please go to this website and sign the petition.

We really do need a plan. I have a few friends who are pro-gun control and they know Feinstein's bill has so many loopholes it can't have any sort of beneficial effect.
I march against the Asagods
To bring the end of time.
I am pure and endless pain
And Surtr is my name.
See me rise, the mighty Surt,
Destroyer of the universe.
Bringer of flames and endless hurt
Scorcher of men and Earth.

Checked out the sight, what with caring about gun safety and all.
1 This would be great, private purchase loophole needs to be closed. This is a very easy case to make too btw, since it's a felony to sell a firearm to a felon, or to own a firearm as a felon - and without a background check........how is the seller supposed to ensure they aren't selling to a felon? Simple due diligence.
2 This is a rehash of the AWB, which was notable particularly for it's complete and utter lack of any detectable effect on crime or safety. Seeing as how I'd like the next round of bills in this arena to have some effect, and not be so easy to gout on grounds of partisanship and ineffectiveness...I'm disappointed to see this here.
3 It already is.
I would really love to see the private sale purchase loophole closed, and the thought of a petition like this spawning a bill that would get mauled as an attempt to play partisan politics with ineffective policies(obstructing and delaying any meaningful legislation in the process) is thoroughly disappointing. Imagine a compromise in which legislators were offered either 1 or 2 but not both (and of course the opposition would want some sorts of concessions somewhere, a price to pay). I'd be pissed if we got sold up the river with 2 rather than getting something meaningful with 1.
