.....I think we may be a little too liberal with who we allow to have guns.........
Shane I don't include you in this, it's just a lead to where I'm going.
Could be, the question I ask those believing more is better, have you called your representative demanding the laws you demanded previously be enforced? Or aked what the actual rate of enforcement is?
I read lying on the form prosecution is under 1%, felon with a firearm single digits. California just banned teachers from shooting someone there to shoot up a school, and ended mandatory minimums for gun crimes. They can't afford the prison system they have.
Coincidentally California was just pronounced as having the worst quality of life in the nation, with some places falling below third world conditions. Huge homeless encampments, and a big chunk of San Francisco an open air toilet. Seattle just decided folks crapping on the courthouse steps is at the point it needs hosed down regularly, and there's actually an idiot opposed to it.
I posted somewhere the other day in response to an anti gunner. How about we mix social media, criminal records, and facial recognition, when firearms meet felons send in SWAT teams. Chicago, Detroit, Atlanta, etc, use all the federal SWAT teams target one city at a time, 90 days, then see what gun crime is. Isn't this what Trump was talking about in January? What/who changed his mind? Silence.
Not that I want that, but it's what it could look like, we can't enforce taillight regulations without folks getting killed, what's a gun ban going to look like? Who want's to live in such places? How much of the population do we go broke locking up and for what?
The world is tough test for ideals, an old proverb; What can't be remedied must be endured.
Never had an AR, but have no doubt what spits out the other end will include, Ruger carbines, and Winchester 100's. How long before it's "sniper rifles" thumbhole stock's good optics?
Are there folks unsafe, irresponsible, Yes. Educate where you can, but in the end them, is all of us.
