Everything you say is plain old common sense. I think that training and licensing of all gun owners is needed as well. It's a good way to get the screening issues out of the way, as well time to do (during the course period) a thorough background check.For one, police should know if there are firearms at any location they are called to. Secondly, those of us that aren't guncrazed have the right to be free from gun violence, which includes the antics of incompetent amateurs, so there should be a reasonable expectation that anyone around them is minimally competent to use a gun and not a threat. Handguns should be most strictly regulated, with a stringent highly supervised licensing program, yearly exams and use certification, same as the military and police do. Assault weapons and large (over 10 bullet) magazines should be banned. No civilian needs to own large weapons, missile launchers, tanks (they still use them???), bazookas, etc. We have a military to do that. Join them if you really need to muck with that stuff. |
