The only answer is to make owning a gun an "arduous" process.
And stiff penalties for illegal gun possession.
Those who want them can still get them, but there will be a lot less
guns floating around. Yeah, floating around. Virtually every gun used
in crime started its life with a "legal owner," a Joe Putz or Greg
Fretwell, or Harry Krause.
Even suicides would decrease because that's usually an impulse move.
The only thing stopping it is the gun nuts. They'll lose in the end.
I won't deeply care unless somebody I care about gets shot.
Hasn't happened yet. But I don't have trouble voting for anybody
who want guns severely restricted.
I'll still be able to get one if I want to. Of course I'm sane.
Your sanity is your opinion. It won't fly in the opinion of many here
because your ideas "infringe" on their rights.
