I don't see anything changing in America...the fanatical gun culture is just too deeply rooted.
Because guns are so widespread banning guns would be like trying to ban TV sets. It would take some serious restrictions to actually reduce mass shootings, but even minor restrictions would be treated by the pro-gun side as a declaration of war.
Whenever you even mention the words gun control apparently Americans run out to the store and start mass stockpiling weapons. This was a widespread phenomenon during Obama's presidency even though he never implemented any actual regulations on guns...
"Americans spent an estimated $17 billion on ammunition while Obama was president"

- The only way you're gonna change it is by electing more Dems by increasing turnout or by the GOP changing back into a more moderate party over time.yuekit
- Americans hate to hear this because it sounds biased, they badly want to believe bOtH sIDeS have a point...but this is just the reality. The GOP is an extremistyuekit
- party on this issue, you're not going to move any gun legislation until they reform or are marginalized.yuekit
- Start by not selling ammo to those weapons...Nutter
- Create a "weapon refund policy" where turning in a weapon gives you a certain amount of money back. The weapon is then disposed of.Nutter
- Ban selling new weapons of that type to regular people.Nutter
- Sure it will take a long time to correct things, but its pretty simple steps.Nutter
- I’m kinda sick of every rational measure is met with a sad and tired “it won’t work” or “it won’t happen” trope. If we don’t try what is the ducking point!?monospaced
- You don’t have to point out how inept and crippled our system is and how ignorant and confused the conservative fucktards are. Let’s focus on action.monospaced
- Spare the captain obvious lecture please. Voting in Dems is not the only way this gets done.monospaced
