I have thought long and hard and have been unable to come up with any other alternatives.
I do wonder if ghost guns may change things, but even so I doubt they can shoot e.g. 1000 rounds per minute. Anyway we should do something, rather than the literally nothing that is currently done.
Edit: to be clear, I am totally okay with people owning 1770’s style muskets:-), it’s those ones such as used in the Vegas shooting scenario that are unprecedented in their ability to lay waste to swaths of human crowds all at once that I think might benefit the most from regulation - and even then, perhaps put exemptions such as someone having served with distinction in the military can “properly” use such. I have no idea how…or for what, but sure, you’ve earned that and it still keeps it out of the hands of the untrained masses.
I can’t recall exactly but I thought it’s already happened, and if nothing else Dick Chaney shot someone in the face, and continued on to shoot others in other ways in other trips.
Totally unconnected (yeah right! and if you believe that…), some of this money supposedly from “the NRA” actually is funnelled through from Russia. Not all, but it seems a common pipeline by which, shall we say “certain politicians” are bribed no wait yeah that’s what I meant there. At least it’s a factor that complicates things, but since it’s money it complicates it a lot.
In some other country that might even be thought of as something worth doing about, and similarly with the sacrifice of our literal and actual children. But here we cannot, bc you know, we are instead “Pro-Life”.
That would be one way.

Eventually a family member of a Republican will be shot in one of these. Maybe then we can do something about it.

Wasn’t an R shot at the congressional baseball game a few years ago. Didn’t seem to do shit.
Why’d they stop at one?
