As I said earlier, I'm a results guy. The results show, as to gun violence, what we have done up to now is not working. We need to be open to possible solutions even if they lie outside our pet ideology or 2nd Amendment idolatry.
It would be fucking fantastic if the majority of Americans were interested in results. I fully agree. But right now we have a minority of 5 million idiots who think muskets and Bushmasters and A-R-15s are the same as muskets. And those same idiots think "no record" at time of buy is valid vetting. Those 5 million are holding the sane hostage.
Pretty sure muskets are the same as muskets.

And musket is a type, AR-15 is a model, and Bushmaster is a brand name.

I have a dream that one day, guns will be as well regulated as mother fucking sudafed.
"Tradition" is just a word people use to make themselves feel better about being an asshole.
