How can anybody believe anything that this candy ass says?

MEN SHALL BEND THERE SWORDS INTO PLOWS.

Ridiculous non starters that will do fuk all to curb firearma related deaths. How about bringing firearms owners to the table to develop this nonsensical laws instead of writing them in this circle jerk vaccuum.

No.

Gun deaths are really small in comparison to many other causes of death

Most gun deaths are suicides.

BS.

We definitely need better gun control- bringing back asylums and blaming games is not the solution- no correlations. Some of the policies the survivors put up get critiqued as not doing enough but if we don't even try, how do we know that?

Hogg poster boy.

What about bad people owning guns, they will not follow rules !!!!!

Even just the first point. Guns currently cause 30k deaths per year on average. By own story gun use saves over 200k lives per year on average. So we are going to applaud saving 15k over 10 years at a cost of over 200k per year? DNC logic. Right DLoesch

I like how you went for the toned down description here. We all know its a lot more than that. Some idea are good, most are bad, we all know how this will go.

How could we miss it? You keep reposting this same story over and over.

1. 90% of gun murders in America are gang/drug related 2. 90% of those are done with illegally obtained guns. These laws would have NO EFFECT! 3. Crazy people that want to kill people can use any object as a weapon 4. Clubs, knives, fist all are used to kill more ppl than rifles!

None of them will qualify to own guns.

Any gun lovers trying to argue need to be blocked and ignored as their only goal is to derail the issue.

A fraction of mass shooting deaths we’ve identified so far. We’re not near done yet.

Guns have always been prominent on the landscape of America but mass shootings haven't apart from the horrendous atrocities committed against native Americans. Another subject. What we need to ask is what is happening in the American psyche that is resulting in mass shootings?

I'm in favor of gun control legislation, but how do they figure 200,000 gund deaths over 10 yrs?

How do I help prevent gun violence? I don't shoot people. DoingMyPart

AssaultWeaponsBan We should be marching on Washington, like in Hong Kong, until they DoSomething

They say? What happened to Fact Checking?

It's a good start. Hopefully it leads to us having decent gun control like the rest of our international peers.

Higher standard for gun ownership? You mean the Constitution isn’t high enough?

A lot more than that has to happen.

The NRA will direct politicians to ignore this plan and the people who created it. The politicians will heel to the NRA as per usual.

No. Just no.

Blah

Is it fair to ask, if this plan were adopted, which of the mass shootings over the last ten years would have been avoided if this were in place?

Nope! Nation wide open carry is the only way to stop evil. Anything else is unconstitutional!!

That number is a fantasy. 1) it includes gun suicides which makes it questionable on whether these lives are actually saved 2) criminals don’t care about higher gun ownership standards or red flag laws. It feels good to make a proposal but this is meaningless.

It's total garbage promoted by ignorant people from people who've no appreciation for the checks and balances put in place by our Founding Fathers...

No thanks

And BetoORourke is the only candidate who has supported it so far.

2a can’t be bargained my man.

The science is in: Only way to curb mass shootings is to pass Constitutional Carry.
