It’s the guns, stupid.
4 Ways To Fix America’s Gun Problem.
Thoughts and prayers hit the airwaves within an hour. FOX went straight to video games are the problem. NBC had a long piece on mental health. Then Republicans, nervous as always, went to that old war horse ‘this is not the time to discuss gun legislation.’
It never is. Gun legislation means less profit for the gun industry. Less profit for the gun industry means less guns. And that’s actually the problem no one wants to touch. There’s too many guns.
Too many guns in America. Every other excuse, thought piece, pundit flights of fancy, 2nd amendment canard you hear in the next days after the El Paso/Dayton Massacre Weekend Gunboree is garbage is junk with no meaning. The only thing that does have meaning is there are too many guns. Too many guns. Too many guns. That’s it.
I’m not going to waste your time pontificating. There’s too many damn guns and here’s 4 ways to fix it.
- Ban assault weapons. Don’t be a jerk. The Army needs weapons of war, nobody else.
- Register all guns with local police. Failure to do so results in confiscation of all guns.
- Regulate ammunition sales. The Texas murderer had a long paragraph in his ‘manifesto’ about ammunition. He had special ammo designed to tear through a body, shred organs, cause pain and death. There’s nothing in the 2nd amendment about bullets.
- License owners. Renewable every ten years. Requires Gun Test before issuing license and one visit to a gun range for re-certification every 12 months.
