As Ive seen on other blogs, one of the purposes of guns is to protect us from an oppressive government, having them regulate them is a conflict of interest.
Slowly ratchet down on who can buy guns.
1st, the people who had a pot charge years ago.
Then, people who take any depression or anxiety medicine. (Insane)
Then people who drink alcohol.
Then people who owe taxes.
Then people with ANY misdemeanors.
Finally, anyone with a traffic ticket -- after all, if you cannot drive responsibly, you CLEARLY don't have the sense to own a gun.
Stop them at the 1st step. Today.
They’re using the Goldilocks Method... “that gun’s too big(.50),can shoot down jets!” or it’s “too small and is easily concealed”.
Hence the only gun that’s “just right” is the one in possession of The State.
