Please tell us what you would do to accomplish that. People are already required to complete background checks, what other measures would you propose to keep guns out of 'the wrong hands'?
again, real background checks with teeth.
How about, actually checking out refererrels. For instance, if we call you Mom, and she says, "Jesus, Christ, no, he's nuts!" that would be a really good one.
Or if you are a college student, we call your school and we find out that they either threw you off campus (Loughner), were in the process of getting rid of you (Holmes) or had to put you in a special tutoring session because you were scaring the snot out of the other students (that kid who shot up VA Tech) we don't let you get a license to buy a gun.
What we are going to find out in the next few days is that everyone who knew anything about Holmes knew he was a train wreck waiting to happen... and they gave him a gun anyway.
