This year we have had over [b]300[/b] 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 [b]ban[/b] 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 [b]gun. [/b] And make it a felony if you shoot someone who lives No that won't work either. What shall we do. Comments. 馃

I think the GOP and their owners..........the NRA will eventually screw honest gun owners. I think the public has had enough of them doing nothing as the body count piles up. It takes VERY little to convince others you at least care and are willing to do SOMETHING to help this problem..........and it becomes just as glaring obvious they don't care when we can all see they have a screw it...let 'em die attitude.
Giving in on little things would help a lot. Like agreeing to simple back ground checks. A Red Flag law. Banning silencers. Things that in the scope of things are not huge concessions.......and does not the legal gun owner one bit........but are always flatly refused. Those hard line refusals to give an inch as the body count rises will eventually cause a major backlash against ALL gun owners. When it does the NRA will realize that giving up ONE thing here and there that didn't actually have anything to do with the right to own a gun would have been the right approach...............but by then it will be too late. Starting in 2024 the Sunami of new voters will speak. Millennials that are now old enough to vote...... will vote Republicans out of office and the protection for the NRA at the same time...... as they remember hiding under desks as the GOP said "thoughts and prayers............and screw you." That generation has had "thoughts and prayers" up to their necks and it's not playing well.
The hardline GOP/NRA approach to this will backfire soon and when it does it will be hardest on those it should not be......the law abiding gun owners.
