We need a solution to keep guns and other weapons from the hands of criminals. At the same time not infringing on the rights of law abiding citizens.

Perhaps hanse sentences for crimes committed with a gun?
Background checks on all gun purchases, although a vast majority are already done, it would make t criminal to buy a gun for cash on the streets.

We can't do registration or other restrictions because that would infringe on the rights of the people.

We require registrations for cars. Why not guns? A registration process does not prevent me from owning and using a car (which I have done since I was 17 years old).

I am 100% in favor of real background checks.

I have never written, and nor will I in the future, propose policy that's intended to end any Constitutional right.

Somehow, we need to find a way for serious-minded people to sit down and work this problem.

I think mental health is the most critical areas to start with since 2/3rd of gun deaths in the USA are suicides.
Think of how many other issues we could solve with a solid handle on mental health, from suicide, mass shootings, addiction, domestic violence......
