Applying the laws in place already would help stop many of these. Instead, we have state and local governments that refuse to provide information to the federal databases that would prevent most of those people from getting guns in the first place. At least through legal channels.

Focus on finding these people before they get this far gone is a better way of solving these problems than trying to ban guns or assault rifles.

Every year the federal government loses track of what happened to millions of dollars budgeted towards the Defense Department, State Department, and pretty much every other department they are supposed to be looking over and they are going to keep track of every gun (and if California ever gets its way, every bullet) in a country that has 329 million people in it? Let me know when we start the discussion on reasonable solutions.

I'll go ahead and cut this argument off at that pass too. "But it works in Canada." Again the United States has a population of 329 million people. Canada has a population of 37 million people. It should be a lot easier to keep track of guns in Canada. You have almost 300 million less people to keep track of.

Conscription of males age umpteen to twentysomething. Not realistic.

And Canada has very little illegal immigration.

Make legal conceal carry easier and encourage law abiding, trained individuals to do so.

So owning the average hunting bolt gun and shotgun in the US would now mean jail time?


I didn't say it was logical. I said it is about the only thing that will stop the mass killings where someone can kill 20 to 30 people in a few minutes.

FYI... UK has this law and has had it for a few decades after some nut when on a killing spree at a school. Shotguns over there are either side by side or OU.

Incarceration of all males between the ages 16 and 30.

You could ban and confiscate all the guns in the US and it could still happen. We can’t keep people from crossing the border let alone firearms.
