I've said on here many times what I have advocated for as a gun responsibility advocate for the past 30 years.
Not a complete list. And I've already heard the 2A crowd responses to all of these, so unless there is something new I won't respond.
Ban assault rifles and high capacity magazines
Universal background checks for all gun sales
Age 21 to purchase
Waiting periods, licensing, training requirements
No "constitutional carry"
No ghost guns
Emergency protection orders
Safe storage
Liability for gun manufacturers
Liability for adult gun owners when children use their weapon
As I thought - we agree on the vast majority of points (11/13, possibly 12/13 depending on the details, by my count); however - getting politicians to do ANY of them, I think, is a challenge in today's environment; the extremes have taken over...the pendulum will eventually swing back, but I suspect nothing will be done in the meantime...and it will get much worse than it already is (why I think so would be a long topic for another thread).
