What's wrong with gun-"control"?

53. One point at a time

Get rid of all weapons capable of holding more than about 3 rounds.

If you're really expecting that to happen sooner than never and not at all, you're terribly naive.

Severely restrict who can obtain one at all.

Several states have constitutions echoing the personal right of self-defense and the conjunction of the 2A and 10A in the federal give the same result. I don't know of almost anyone who would deny a right of self-defense which really ought to include rights to the most efficacious tool for the job.

Change liability laws to hold people personally responsible for their weapons, including how they are stored.

I thought, perhaps incorrectly, that gun owners now have liability for injuries and damage they cause.

Oh, and most of this will require that the 2nd be extensively modified if not repealed.

I should mention here that it is my considered opinion that changing of eliminating any of the Bill of Rights is tantamount to forming a new country. (I think you may need an incredible number of guns to make that happen.)

And that will require that we have a major change in our cultural attitude about the value and utility of violence as a primary solution to conflict.

If you believe that laws will affect a change in collective "cultural attitude", I have a bridge to sell you.


I will point out lastly that 3 rounds will be a tremendous handicap to the police and military.
