1) You can be in favor of the second amendment and still despise the NRA. 2) The percentage of people who want to violate the constitution is inconsequential.

To be clear, I asked about measures proposed that have been proven to reduce gun violence. Background checks, while a good idea generally, only impact a small percentage of gun violence, which doesn't include mass shootings. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2015/12/10/marco-rubios-claim-that-no-recent-mass-shootings-would-have-been-prevented-by-gun-laws/?utm_term=.7eed36eec4ee …
Safety training would prevent many accidental shootings, but the people generally who need that training aren't the people who own the guns. They're kids who happen upon guns in someone else's home. Can we teach gun safety in school? Democrats say no.

From that link: "In 2005, of the total number of prospective purchasers who were denied following an FBI background check, only 0.5% were denied for mental health reasons. By 2010, this number had risen to 1.8%."
