Okay, I'm finally there. Ban the import, manufacture and sale of semiautomatic
weapons with removable magazines. Every one of them. Long, short all of them. Do a buy back for those who would like to be rid of them.
Why? Two things: a shooter is limited in the number of people he can shoot only by the physical strength to carry ammunition and I'm tired of negotiating from the point of reason which is where we all want to be instead of the extreme. Start with a total ban and move to something reasonable like a national registry, may issue, local background checks including social media.
It's a common practice of the pro gun side the negotiate any policy proposal into ineffectiveness. Oh, sure! we can have UBC but only if the NICS is open to us gunners and we don't have to BC relatives and close friends and we don't have to keep records of transfers and on and on and on.
Yeah! we can buy into a registry if there are are exceptions for our favorite whatever and nobody ever knows that guns are registered and on and on and on.
The Gun Lobby has successfully done this to every piece of legislation that managed to get passed.
Fuck it. Start from the extreme like they do and negotiate to something reasonable.
