What does that have to do with the question? You are the one who said we need more gun control. What gun control policy would have stopped this kid from shooting these people?
If the father had locked up his guns. And not be such a dick.
From what I have seen the father didn't have the gun legally as he was a criminal....so if that is true, you fail.......
So we need to tighten up the system so that this guy can't get a gun.
we did tighten up the system and he went around it....... he should have been arrested when he was shooting his gun from his home...that is an arrest that would also have popped him in current background checks....
You want something that can't work.....with a country with our borders.......Britain can't keep illegal guns out of their country and they are an island...
Mass shooters are a rare problem....my plan stops 95% of gun murder....
You are against common sense gun control...you simply want to bother normal gun owners..
I support a life sentence on any criminal who uses a gun for an actual gun crime..... and 30 years if a criminal is caught in possession of a gun, even if they are not using it at that moment for crime.
This will dry up gun crime over night. Criminals will stop using guns for robberies, rapes and murders.....and those who do will be gone forever......
Criminals will also stop walking around with guns in their pants......which is the leading cause of random gang shootings in our cities. if they are stopped by police, with a gun in their pants, they are gone for 30 years...they will stop carrying those guns, and random gang violence will end.
You implement this with two other things...
1) No More Bargaining Away the Gun Charge.........it must be against the law to bargain away a gun charge as part of a plea deal....this stops.
2) When a criminal is arrested for any crime, and booked in...they will be read the announcement that any use of a crime is a life sentence without parole, owning or carrying a gun as a felon is a 30 year sentence without parole....when they are released from custody...the same will be read to them again....when they meet their parole officer it will be read to them again.....the U.S. government will also buy and send out Public announcements on this policy on t.v. radio. and cable......
That is how you stop gun crime over night.
Mass shooters are different..... but with only 93 people killed in mass public shootings in 2018, they are not the major problem in gun crime.
The value in my plan......it actually targets the individuals actually using guns to commit crimes and murder people....
It does not require new background check laws, it does not require gun licensing, licensing gun owners, gun registration, new taxes, fees or regulations on guns...
By making gun crime a life sentence, criminals will stop using guns for crime and will stop carrying guns around for protection.....
Also....a nurse, with a legal gun, driving from Pennsylvania, to New Jersey, will not be considered a gun criminal.....that will end. Criminals with a record of crime, caught with a gun will get 30 years, no deals.....and criminals who use guns for actual crime...robbing the local store, rape, robbery, murder.....life without parole...
This, of course, eliminates the need for more gun control laws...we can already do this.....
