How do you propose stopping mass shootings? When shooting people is already a crime.
well to me its not just about mass shootings but inner city violence as well. for "illegal guns" maybe a real buy back program that offers greater incentives, incentives with a higher value than the reason for wanting them. most gangs/criminals think they have no other way to live so maybe an education/training scholarship, expungment or sealing of certain criminal records, income tax incentives, immigration incentives, business grant incentives. not just $100 cuz a crime may be worth more than that. if the premise is that criminals would get these guns, then i think an angle would be to help them not be criminals in the first place. it may cost a decent amount of money but the government has done its fair share of contributing to inner city problems. they owe.
for legal assault weaponry (for lack of better terms, please spare me the semantics of whether or not its properly called an "assault" rifle) the people that just want them to hunt or whatever, they just gonna have to take a loss. if you need that much ammo to hunt, you suck at it and should get another hobby. people like to think that the prior assault weapon ban did not work but its not like they made all prior assault weapons that already existed illegal, it just halted the sale of new ones at the time. thus there was still some being used to kill. we need to track em all down and try to get rid of them. maybe it would be fair to exchange it for a regular pistol or one of the incentives mentioned above. also i don't see why you need 5 pistols. we should think about limiting the guns per household.
better background checks. i think the current law is that you have to be committed to a hospital by court before it will prevent you from purchasing a gun. that should be lowered because a lot of the mass shootings involved people that were investigated/examined and had red flags but still left free or certain information is not being passed to the background check people.
what do you think?
These modern day activists really need to touch up on being media savvy.
