Looking for someone else to solve your problems again? Liberal policies create or contribute to the problem so why don't YOU try coming up with a real solution? Maybe start with something crazy like enforcing existing laws? Stop plea bargaining with habitual felons? You know, try something no liberal has tried before.
We don't support free access to guns for domestic abusers, mentally disturbed, or felons.

The National Rifle Association's media arm, NRA News, recently downplayed the public safety threat posed by a loophole in federal law that allows domestic abusers and other prohibited persons to purchase firearms without undergoing a background check. But the alleged perpetrator in an October 21 shooting at a Brookfield, Wisconsin spa that left three dead and four wounded reportedly abused that same loophole to obtain his firearm.

Today the Associated Press reported that Radcliffe Haughton purchased a handgun without a background check from a private seller, and obtained the weapon two days after becoming subject to a restraining order that required him to turn any firearms he owned into police.
Ever wonder if the reason for the anti drug laws is the law enforcers need the guarantee of endless work? Why don't they try a law against business larceny? That would keep them busy forever.
Back on topic. I do not believe we need any more gun laws but could use a repeal of the Federal Firearms Act of 1934. As we will not spend the time energy effort and money needed to keep the crazies off the street we need more weapons in the hands of normal citizen's on the street. "Sanctuary Zones" are a bad idea as they only serve to concentrate defenseless targets for the shooters. These people may be "crazy" but they are not, apparently, stupid. They go after the supposedly protected targets.
We need a good screening to make sure those "normal citizens" are really normal before they can own a gun.
NO, just don't make new ones that won't do anything to cut down on gun crime while adversely effecting the constitutional rights of millions of law abiding citizens.
All those children and young adults, who were killed, were denied their constitutional rights in a big way!
The number one responsibility of our government is to keep Americans safe and secure. Cornyn:
Why does the NRA protect guns more than human lives?
The problem isn't really guns. The problem is mental health and the cult of celebrity. Our media turns depressed, suicidal losers into celebrities, plastering their name, photo, and doctrine everywhere. It encourages other losers who have nothing to live for to go out in blazing glory with a chance at notoriety.
I support a psychological screening of anyone to vote, drive a car, buy gasoline, fertilizer, propane tanks, ammonia, bleach, kitchen knives and baseball bats.
You want to violate rights for safety, then start violating rights. We should also limit the 1st amendment to prevent media from broadcasting anything about mass shootings.
