(18,318 posts)I can't support nat'l registration as the feds Will seek to gain access, and gun control groups Will seek to gain access and publicize such data for nefarious reasonsl.
Can't support #7 and #8 as these have little bearing on societal problems.
I also support national reciprocity regarding weapons carrying.
I think schools and institutions where some psychopath may try to wreak havoc should strengthen their armed presence; we have approx. 100k schools, and apprix. 20k armed personnel now. The latter should be increased substantially.
Felons who are convicted of weapons violations should spend some years actually in prison. Most homicides are committed by veteran criminals, and law enforcement resources should be concentrated on getting these people off the streets.
Legalize now illegal drugs.
Begin massive infrastructure rebuilding, with vigorous labor recruitment in poverty-stricken and crime-ridden areas.
Return to serious efforts at fostering mental
health.
