For those that are pro-gun, are there any regulations that you think should be in place that aren't already? Note: I know nothing about gun regulations other than I can't have one (or even a pocket knife) in NYC.
Personally, I think if you are purchasing a gun, you should have to have a safe place to store it. My next door neighbor in Virginia had his house broken into and they took was his handgun. I think part of gun ownership is properly storing your weapon.
I'm also all for increased scrutiny and background checks. Make me wait to buy another handgun or rifle, I don't care. Of course, I also have to ask if the country would somehow feel better if the nutjob Cruz did his deed in March instead of February. Because that's the reality. Until we acknowledge that some people are fucking crazy and they need to be identified and treated, nothing else will make much of a difference. Oh, wow, you have to be 21 at Dick's Sporting Goods now. Big fucking deal. I had no idea Dick even sold guns. Oh, Walmart's jumping on the bandwagon, that just warms my big liberal heart. Fucking bullshit all for show.
We also have to acknowledge that the government overlords are worthless on these matters, as evidenced by the 50+ or however fucking many "heads-ups" they received about this shit-for-brains Cruz. Hell, he even called the cops on himself. No agencies communicate. Why in the hell are there dozens of agencies that can't seem to communicate. How about having 1 agency called "Get shit done"?
I am completely against mandatory registrations though. Unless the criminals abide by it too. That is where the shit gets real if the government every tries to pull that stunt. What I have is my private property none of your damn business. Sure, I buy a new one, you know it, I'll suffer that.
Regarding safe place to store it, this is common sense to a guy like me. I'm confident that I have the safest storage place for miles around. But ol' Cleatus buys hisself a shotgun and keeps it behind the porch door. Then some crack heads or local thugs steal it and there's more fuel on the fire.
