Felons can't buy guns exept through private sales or at a gun show. Both loopholes need to be closed.
There's a 5 day waiting period for handguns but that's it. I'd be perfectly OK with a similar waiting period for rifles.
Other than that, there's not much else that the national conversation about guns is going to accomplish that's either worth doing or doesn't infringe upon the 2nd Amendment.
Guns will never be confiscated, but it would be nice if our policies reflected at least a little common sense...i.e. waiting periods, don't sell to violent felons (maybe that's the case in some states, IKD), crazy people etc. I know, I know, they'll find another way to get them, right? No other first world country has anywhere near our rate of per capita gun deaths per year. It's not going to stop until some actions are taken.

If only we could get gun laws like Mexico. That would be auce. War on drugs and war on guns. Two unfunded wars on a credit card. Works for me.
Wait. I know. We should legalize all weapons and only sell them through state gun stores and tax the SHIT OUT OF THEM! That's sounds great. Win win. My work here is done. Let's hire people to put that on the ballot. I'm in for $25 bucks.

Take out the gun deaths from the big blue cities and the US gun death rate is equivalent to that of Western Europe. So, is the focus on getting illegal guns out of the hands of felons in Chicago? No, of course not. The focus is getting the guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens in the red counties. Don't buy the lie. The US left/dems like the dazzler don't give a sh*t about gang bangers shooting up other gang bangers. They care about you and your guns. The dazzler hates Giuliani with a white hot hate. His policing policies saved thousands of NYC blacks and made NYC the safest big city in the US. Then came de Blasio and go figure what happened next.
