The obvious answer to reducing gun deaths is to reduce the
number of guns. Sorry.


Now that's just plain stupid.



It's not really stupid. It's logical. And, if those opposed to
*any* kind of constructive discussion or attempts to reduce gun
deaths and crime with reasonable gun control laws, it may just come to
that eventually.


The bad guys are going to get guns anyway. Look at Mexico. Almost
impossible to own a handgun, and rifle owners have to buy the hunting and
target ammo from the army. How many fully automatic weapons are you
hearing about and all the narco groups killing lawman and others? Most of
our problems are related to drugs. Yes, mental health cases make the news
with mass shootings, but very few in the overall amount.
