A Discussion About Guns

in guns •  7 years ago 

I don't think there will be one idea that can solve it, but maybe there are some that can make it less likely to happen.

  • How about banning semi-automatic and automatic weapons with a very strict penalty?
  • Only allowing one gun per adult?
  • law to force gun manufacturers to install GPS tracking devices on certain weapons

I completely agree with getting rid of auto and seim-automatic weapons, absolutely no need for them. a pistol or two should be more than enough "protection". I think the GPS tracking is good in theory but people would likely rip out the tracker. I like your ideas though

None of these work.

If the official story were true, (In Las Vegas) the lone gunman would have killed more people if he had a bolt action rifle. With an automatic weapon and the distances, he was just spraying bullets all over the place. It was just luck that they hit anybody.

Now, the hotel / casino has metal detectors and security. How did one person get so much guns and ammunition up to his room? He would have had to make a dozen trips, and had his car packed to the roof. (but I digress)

There is more than one type of gun sport. Skeet, deer hunting, pheasant hunting, shooting competitions. Anyone who loves guns, and gun sports, has a half a dozen guns just by having one of each type. Limiting someone to one is just... you might as well say none.

Basically, everything BUT a bolt action rifle is a semi-automatic. So, you just decided to ban 95% of what is currently in a gun shop.

GPS tracking would only affect law abiding citizens. Bad guys would get around the system.
And like I said before, this guy made a dozen trips to his car, in a hotel full of security. GPS would not have helped.
