This year we have had over 300 mass shootings already and counting. This problem has gotten so much worse. I mean it is really bad out here now. What do you think should be done though. I mean should we ban guns or do nothing at all. Or maybe we should create a system where if you are over the age of 21 you can own a gun. And make it a felony if you shoot someone who lives No that won't work either. What shall we do. Comments. 🤔

No, I think it should be incredibly expensive and incredibly difficult to obtain and to keep, with rigorous background checks, psychological evaluations, gun safety courses, various permits and licenses required, a gun registry where you need your guns registrations and insurances renewed every year (just like vehicles), zero tolerance for ownership if you are deemed unfit to carry, no violent offenders, random safety checks by the state where they verify your firearms are safe and in working order, mandatory IQ tests, annual gun safety courses that must be attended or your licenses and permits are revoked.
@reubles those are some great ideas. The problem is it's not feasible. They can't even enforce the gun control laws we have in effect now. One of the mass shooters was flagged by the local red flag laws. Nothing came of it. I also think making it incredibly expensive will be argued to be unconstitutional as gun ownership is a constitutional right. They'll pretend they care about the rights of the poor to shoot that one down.
