1. Make Constitutional Carry a reality.
2. Enforce the laws that are already on the books concerning 'gun' crime.

I almost thought this was a serious question based solely on the title of the thread. I'm too freaking gullible.

We have millions of guns in the hands of millions of good law abiding people but their Rights are being threatened by a few deranged nut job cowards that take out their frustrated anger on innocent people that cannot fight back.



We could ban all guns and the losers would turn to bombs, knives and trucks driven onto busy sidewalks. How long will it be before a murdering coward forces his way onto a bus load of little kids armed with a machete?



What we can do today is crack down on illegal guns and the people that use them.

The media is all over a mass shooting when it is carried out by a white guy that might have supported the NRA or Trump but they don't even mention the death tolls that come out of the inner cities every weekend like what happens in Chicago and Baltimore. Why don't they care about the young black men that are being gunned down like it is a hobby?



The problem is when it comes to legislating gun control it is only the law abiding that will follow the laws.



You can outlaw guns and only the outlaws will have them.

There are known demographics in fairly concentrated areas committing the bulk of gun crime.

I would focus there.

You put that very delicately. And you are spot on.

Stop and frisk works, but many have issue with it. There are other methods also that could be used, but likely will not.


Making my "scary" black defense rifle illegal is not a solution.

Focus on the ACTIONS of people, not the tool the choose to commit violent crimes. Don't plea down violent crimes to allow multiple, repeat Felons right back on the streets. Have mandatory LONG sentences for criminals that commit crime with guns and stop DA's from plea deals for this category of crime.

Pay attention to the signs people give for violent instability, but don't use "red flag laws" as a tool to circumvent due process as a tool people can use for vengeance. Prosecute people that falsely accuse others.
Today they can NOT do that.

Enforce the 22,000 existing GUN LAWS already on the books.

Allow National reciprocity for CCW holders.
