Well, if it helps keeping guns out of the hands of nutcases, I'm all for it.

Silly fact, but gun laws only affect the law abiding.

...Require all people that want to buy a firearm from a licensed dealer to show that they have completed a comprehensive firearms safety and shooting course before they can do so.
Ride Safe. Dr.Tramp...............

I would agree with the good Dr. Tramp, but would add the caveat that firearms safety should be added to the school curriculum. You could shoot both handguns and rifles when I was in high school, and could take rifle courses as a PE elective. We were taught a healthy respect for firearms, and we had NO issues with guns being used for violence. Of course, we all carried knives, but no one was stabbing each other either. Perhaps it has nothing to do with weapons, and everything to do with cultural rot.

We’ve discussed how the left controls speech and invents new words and phrases to manipulate the narrative.
global warming turns to climate change to climate emergency or crisis.
That sets the table. No room for compromise, something must be done immediately!
Same has happened to guns. Biden say’s, Who needs high capacity magazines? You’re a lousy shot and shouldn’t be allowed to hunt!
The sides are picked it’s fighting for the uninitiated and undecideds. Ceding them the terms is handicapping us from the start.

You are correct. They want to control the narrative, right down to symbols. This is why they attack statues, flags, and children's hand signs. They want to deny their political opponents the ability to speak, organize, or assemble. Sad, but true. The only reasonable voice on the left anymore is Bill Maher. Lot's of the lefties I know now consider him to be a right-winger. This is what happens when we have feckless political leaders who continuously compromise to the left, without every saying "no."
