“There is no solution to the gun problem, and little more to write, because Americans are addicted to firearms.”
Not all of us, but definitely the party of a minority that governs by just saying no.
@kegill Yep, most of us do, which is why automatic weapons require very advanced permitting for civilians to acquire.
But many responsible gun owners are opposed to bans based on arbitrary shape or model restrictions, because they're a difficult-to-enforce waste of time.
The better way to tackle gun control, that you can get moderates and even gun owners to sign on to, is not keeping guns out of law-abiding hands, but rather making sure they don't fall into the wrong hands. Universal background checks and red flag laws should be the focus instead of the more-polarizing and less-effective bans.

@LouisIngenthron
It wasn’t a Democrat who abandoned the ban on military style weapons.
Lots of people are responsible gun owners who also support limiting access to weapons born of war.
