        Finally a man with balls, not hiding behind a 250 yr old amendment. Gun reform now, assault weapons Ban now, age limit 21 now, background checks now, registration now, trigger locks each gun and locked metal cabinets now. Mental health check now.

        Aren't background checks a thing, though?

        Not mandatory in most states! Gun shows don't even ask questions, just pay them and leave.

        I think the best way to prove that id with a (or mutiple) studies in all states. Then you could issue better background checks. I think most gun-lovers could agree to that. I'm pro guns, but it seems like both parties just argue that what you said is either bullshit or true.

        Also curious to why the 2A is US-wide, but gun laws aren't tho. Maybe look at the states with lowest crime rate and tailor every state's gun laws to that? I don't know, just an idea that I actually haven't heard before.

        There are so many guns on the street that the Police must have to worry about being shot every time they respond to an incident. That puts everyone at risk, the Police and the Public. Fear of guns changes the equation in very bad ways.

        Let me guess... the Santa Fe Highschool shooters dad was a “responsible gun owner” the term that NRA likes to throw around.

        Tell the Chief we will give up ours if law enforcement gives up theirs.

        That is the most idiotic statement ever made. You are probably the type of person who shouldn't even have access to guns.

        I thought we weren’t supposed to criticize police officers. Isn’t that in our conservative handbook somewhere?
